Whiskey Explorer’s Flight
For the bourbon curious, this Whiskey Explorer’s Flight by Nicole Stipp introduces tasters to both bourbons and ryes and the effects barrel-finishing has on the flavor profiles of both types of spirits.
Chocolate and Spice and Everything Nice: Bourbon Ball Cocktail
Spiced chocolate syrup and nutty Basil Hayden made a hot and heavy, decadent Bourbon Ball cocktail for Bourbon Women at the 2019 NYPD contest.
High Spirits Bourbon Flight
This flight with Woodford Reserve, Maker’s Mark, and E.H Taylor comes with suggestions for food pairings for each spirit that bring out more than just the basic differences between the bourbons. It also explores how they change paired with complementary food.
Must Mix Bourbon-Tiki Tipple – The Noe-Tai Required
Get your tiki bourbon fix with this Bourbon Women cocktail from our Not Your Pink Drink contest in 2019. With Knob Creek bourbon, Campari, peach simple, and a float or blackstrap rum it’s an explosion of tiki flavors in the spirit of bourbon country.
Rye Dessert Flight
While we may be Bourbon Women, we appreciate any well-thought-out flight of whiskies, like this rye whiskey flight created by a former board member, Brittany Allison of Willett Distillery.
Chili Pepper Mint Julep
This unique chili pepper riff on the Mint Julep combines the spiciness of poblano peppers with the refreshing aromas of mint and the cool feel of bourbon on ice. The chili pepper Mint Julep is a summer tipple with enough heat to keep you sipping in the summer heat all evening long.
