About this bottle
Early Times Bottled-in-Bond is a Kentucky straight bourbon built to the Bottled-in-Bond Act's rules: one distilling season, aged at least four years in new charred oak in a single bonded warehouse, and bottled at exactly 100 proof (50% ABV). It's made from a corn-forward mash bill of roughly 79% corn, 11% rye, and 10% malted barley, now produced at the Barton 1792 Distillery in Bardstown after decades at Brown-Forman's Louisville facility. That mash bill and the extra proof give it more grain sweetness and grip than a lot of budget bourbons, with caramel and baking spice carrying through a straightforward, no-frills pour.
How to drink Early Times Bottled-in-Bond
At 100 proof it takes ice well without going watery too fast, making it a solid rocks pour, and its straightforward grain sweetness makes it a dependable base for a Whiskey Sour or Old Fashioned when you don't want to reach for something pricier.
