Evan Williams Eggnog

Not surprisingly the only nose here is cream with a touch of cinnamon. Palate is equally expected; egg nog with some warmth from the bourbon. Most people state the whiskey is a dominant flavour here but it could be so much more. I suppose it needs to cater to the masses though. For a 1/4 of the price you can get a gallon of plain nog and add as much bourbon (that you already own) in it. Also if you haven’t tried, put some amaretto in your nog for some outstanding flavour.

How this gets anything lower than five is beyond me. It’s egg nog with whiskey and done very well. Yes if you make your own it is better, this however with a dash of nutmeg and a cinnamon stick and it’s Christmas. Having a glass while watching Home Alone with the kids. Merry Christmas!

The first sip greets you with silky smooth Egg Nog, quickly followed up with a quick aromatic bourbon slap, which tickles the nose. Very enjoyable, surprisingly good experience for less than $10.

Mix Kentucky Straight Bourbon, blended whiskey, rum and brandy; add the eggs, milk, cream, sugar and spices and you get the taste of Christmas past. What’s not to like.

I’d prefer buying regular eggnog and mixing it with my own bourbon of choice, but this is worth trying if you like eggnog, particularly because it is so cheap.

Pre-mixed egg nog and Evan Williams whiskey. You can definitely taste and feel the whiskey; leaves a nice warmth in the belly. Not bad for $10.
