what grain is used in making bourbon whiskey
Most Irish whiskey is blended [Jameson, Bushmills], but there are some high-dollar single malts [Laphroaig]. Serve it: Neat or on the rocks. Bourbon is American whiskey. Corn is the dominant grain used to make bourbon (instead of barley), which gives it a notably sweet taste, often with hints of vanilla picked up from the oak barrels. Bourbon has a long history in Kentucky, but it can be made anywhere, if it meets certain federal guidelines.
