Half the Terms on Bourbon Labels Are Lies, all about Bourbon Terms | Whiskey Library

Half the terms on a bourbon label mean something. The other half are just marketing. We buy bourbon for a living, so here's every term that actually matters, in plain English. What mash bill actually means. Why "Bottled in Bond" exists because people were literally being poisoned by fake whiskey in 1897. The difference between toasted and charred (most people get this wrong). What "Buff Turkey" means and why collectors are losing their minds over it. Why "Small Batch" and "Handcrafted" are basically meaningless. And the one sneaky label trick — "Distilled in Kentucky" vs "Bottled in Kentucky" — that's designed for you not to read carefully. By the end of this, you'll know exactly what you're paying for. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🥃 CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro 0:20 Mash Bill 0:53 Straight Bourbon 1:16 Rye Whiskey 1:34 Bottled in Bond 2:12 Cask Strength 2:35 Single Barrel 3:11 Age Statement 3:32 Proof vs ABV 4:01 Double Oak 4:25 Toasted vs Charred 4:48 Finished Bourbon 5:13 Small Batch 5:44 NDP (Non Distilling Producer) 6:21 Buff Turkey 7:15 Distilled vs Bottled in Kentucky 7:27 Grain to Glass 7:43 Outro ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔔 Subscribe to Whiskey Library for more deep dives into the world's most interesting distilleries. 📸 Instagram:   / drinkwhiskeylibrary   🌐 Website: https://whiskeylibrary.com ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #WhiskeyLibrary #BourbonTerms #BourbonExplained #BourbonGlossary #BottledInBond #CaskStrength #SingleBarrel #MashBill #BourbonBasics #BourbonForBeginners #LearnAboutBourbon #BourbonEducation #WhiskeyEducation #BourbonTerminology #BuffaloTraceWildTurkey #BourbonLabels #WhiskeyVlog #BourbonVlog #BourbonCommunity #WhiskeyLovers #BourbonLover
