Customer Reviews

A must-buy for the true bourbon lover!

 January 30, 2010
By Paul Stuart ""…also I’ll brush my teeth…
Odds are quite favorable that if you’re reading this review you’re already – like me – a fan of that wondrous alcoholic concoction from the heart of Kentucky. While we’ve all partaken in the occasional bourbon chicken recipe and/or mint julep, it seems this beloved beverage type was never truly given its fair shake. Or ice cube, for that matter.

‘Bourbon: 50 Rousing Recipes’ opens up heaven’s gates to our beloved libation, offering cold, hot, and food (entree and dessert) options for the bourbon adventurer, nearly all of which thankfully require primarily mainstream ingredients. (I’ve never been a particular fan of cookbooks requesting dollops of obscurity for the perfect outcome. High barriers of cooking entry and I don’t play well together.)

Sure, the intro on the history of bourbon (vs. TN Whiskey) is entertaining, but the meat of this book lies in its simple yet simultaneously robust uses for the bourbon lover. Oh, the places a large bottle of Maker’s Mark can go thanks to Mr. Thompson’s book. (FYI: These recipes seem earmarked for middle of the road bourbon that tends to have character – yet not overwhelming – plus mixes well.) Images of bourbon parties began to dance around in my head…

If there’s a bourbon lover in your inner sanctum, this is a must purchase. Just promise he/she to make enough for the rest of us. :)
