A Complete Guide To Explore The Best Bourbon Whiskey In India

India is home to some of the best and most flavorful bourbon whiskeys in the world. Look no further for those looking to explore what India offers in this spirit! This guide will provide a comprehensive overview of the best bourbon whiskey in India, and helpful tips on getting the most out of your whiskey-tasting experience.

Overview Of Bourbon Whiskey

Bourbon whiskey has a mash bill of around 51 percent corn. Bourbon cannot have any additional colors or flavors and must be aged in fresh, charred oak barrels. The name comes from the French Bourbon dynasty, named after the city of Bourbon, France. Bourbon has a long history in the United States and was first produced in the 18th century. Since then, it has become an essential part of American culture and heritage. Today, bourbon is enjoyed by people worldwide and is one of the most popular types of whiskey.

Many brands of bourbon whiskey are available in India, such as Jim Beam, Jack Daniel's, and Maker's Mark. If you want to try some of the best bourbon whiskey in India, check out the guide below.

The Difference Between Scotch And Bourbon

When it comes to the best whisky for party, there are two distinct types: Scotch and bourbon. Both are delicious, but they also have some key differences. Here's a quick guide to help you understand the difference between scotch and bourbon whiskey. Scotch is made in Scotland, while bourbon is made in the United States. The main difference between the two lies in the ingredients and production process.

Scotch is made with malted barley, while bourbon is made with corn. The other key difference is that Scotch must be aged in oak barrels for at least three years, while bourbon only needs to be aged for two years. Bourbon has a sweeter taste than Scotch, thanks to the corn used in its production. On the other hand, Scotch has a more complex flavor profile due to the malted barley and longer aging process.

So, which one should you choose? It all comes down to personal preference. Bourbon is the way to go if you're looking for a smooth drink with a sweet flavor. Scotch is your best bet if you want something with a bit more depth and complexity.

How To Choose The Best Bourbon Whiskey In India?

Bourbon whiskey comes from corn. It is typically aged for two years or more in new, oak charred-barrels. Bourbon has a distinctively sweet, smoky flavor and is often used in cocktails. When choosing the best whisky for party, it is crucial to consider the following factors:

The type of bourbon: There are four types of bourbon whiskey, each with a distinct flavor profile. These include Kentucky straight bourbon, Tennessee whiskey, blended bourbon, and rye bourbon.

The age of the bourbon: The longer it is aged, the more complex its flavor will be. Bourbons that are aged for at least four years are typically considered to be the best quality.

The proof of the bourbon: The higher the proof, the higher the alcohol content and the more intense the flavor. Bourbons with 50% or higher proof are typically considered the best quality.

The price: Bourbon whiskey can vary depending on age, proof, and type. Generally speaking, higher quality bourbons will cost more money.

Popular Brands Of Bourbon Whiskey In India

As of 2020, over 100 bourbon whiskey brands were available in India. The top 10 most popular brands, based on sales volume, are as follows:

Jack Daniel's

Wild Turkey

Guilt & Revenge: Nowhere Else To Go

Whumptober, Day 17: Nowhere Else To Go

Guilt & Revenge Masterlist

Ooooh more background story? Yes pls. Poor Amber, the guy can barely catch a break. This is the beginning of him being officially unofficially adopted by his found family! Hope you enjoy, and lmk if you wanna be added to the taglist!

TWs: minor whump, underage drinking, child neglect, forgotten birthday, substance abuse, sobbing, hangover, implied bad childhood / childhood trauma, and mentions of running away, court-ordered rehab, implied addicted mother, puking due to hangover, implied divorced/seperated parents, and calling a parental figure "sir"

Dom had been lost in thought, staring at the sky, when he suddenly snapped back into a drunken reality. The sky was dark, and there were stars. Shit, what time was it? Fumbling for his phone, he poured whisky all over himself, having forgotten he was holding the open bottle. Shit, shit shit… 

It was his fourteenth birthday. His father hadn’t remembered, and Dom wasn’t even surprised. The first two, three months after his father got custody of him again had been nice. Neither of them brought up the fact that last time, Dom had run away. Or that it had taken four years for his father to start caring enough again to come find him. By now, he was back to ignoring Dom, although Dom still lived with him. Having no authority figures pay attention to him suited him much better now as a teenager than it did as a child, and for the most part, Dom didn’t mind. He knew it would happen sooner or later.

That didn’t mean it didn’t hurt sometimes. He just didn’t wanna think about it. So there he was, on his forgotten birthday, in a secluded little spot he’d found that he called his, getting drunk.

Well. The getting drunk part was kinda over. He felt pleasantly and inconveniently numb, his thoughts a slurry. Precisely what he’d wanted, but… how would he get home? Even trying to stand up had him almost toppling over. He was dripping with spilt whisky, and his phone india- indac- indict- indishiated? Ind.. His phone said it was eighteen past one AM. 

Did he have anyone to call? 

His father wouldn’t come pick him up, not at this time of night. He might not even wake up from the sound of the phone ringing. Who else even was there? He had no one. He hadn’t seen his mom since they took her away for court-ordered rehab. Finally, his thoughts fell on his best friend. Noah-Elise. What would she even be able to do? She was only fourteen. Like he was now..

Before his drunk mind could catch up with him, he’d dialed her. It went over twice, and he contemplated hanging up, but just as he was about to, she picked up. 

“Dom? It’s like one in the morning right now, what’s going on?”

Her sleepy voice made his heart flutter a little. Trying to speak without slurring, he answered.

“I’m uh.. I’m sorry, I.. I’m drunk and I need someone to pick me up. I don’t know how to get- get home. I’m sorry, I don’t, didn’t have anyone else to call, I… “

“Are you okay?”, came her voice, much more alert than a second before.

A sound not unlike a sob escaped him. “I’m, it’s, I don’t kn- It’s my birthday? I just… I’m sorry, I didn’t- didn’t think this through, I just wanted to- just need someone to pick me up, I.. I’m sorry, it’s stupid, I’ll just-”

“Dom don’t you dare hang up right now!”

He paused.

A second later, probably after confirming he was still on the line, she continued. “I’ll come pick you up. Where are you? The rest can wait.”

“Uh, bridge, I’m at the- at the bridge, with the uh.. tree-house-thingy.. thing.”

Somewhere, he was aware that was not a useful sentence, but it was all his drunk mind could come up with. “Okay, hold on. We’ll be right there.”

Dom could hear the comforting smile at the end of the sentence. If he’d been more sober, he might have wondered how she would get there and who she was bringing with her. As it was, he laid back down, and stared at the mostly-empty whisky bottle. Why the fuck not.

He chugged the rest of it.

Some indeterminable time later, someone shook Dom awake. He hadn’t been aware that he’d fallen asleep, and it was highly disorienting. “Wha..?”

“Dom. Dom, it’s me. Just me.” Noah-Elise. Her presence instantly calmed him, and he wanted to sob. The alcohol in his system did little for his impulse control, and he dropped his head to her shoulder, slurring out a hello.

“What on Earth made you think this was a good idea, Dom? Why would you get drunk like this, with no one to help you?” She didn’t sound mad. She sounded like she was genuinely asking.

Dom looked over to the car that she’d come in, with a man (presumably one of her fathers?) behind the wheel, and decided he didn’t fucking care. He couldn’t’ve stopped himself from starting to sob if he’d tried, so he didn’t. He just clung to this amazing girl that had changed so much of his life, of him, in such little time. Still, he felt the need to explain, and through the tears and hiccuping breaths, he tried to speak, to explain as she shushed him. Eventually, he got out “Itt’s my- my biir- birth, my birthdaayh.. “

“Oh Dom… “, She wrapped her arms tighter around him, and he wished he could melt. “You could have told me.”

He didn’t know what to say to that, so he just nodded into her shoulder.

Eventually, once he’d calmed down a little, Noah-Elise helped him into the car, and he fell asleep again as they drove off, feeling nauseous and delirious. He didn’t even notice that they left his bag and the empty bottle.

He woke up the next morning in a bed with purple plaid duvets and green print pillows- in other words, very distinctively not his own. He didn’t have long to think about what that meant, cuz moments after waking up, he was hanging off the edge of the bed and puking his guts up onto stained hardwood that he didn’t recognise.

Dom got up, and suddenly became aware of the pounding headache he had. He groaned. When he left the room, he could recognise Noah-Elise’s house. He didn’t remember much about calling her or getting here, he mostly remembered crying into her shoulder. Great… 

He went downstairs, to the kitchen for some water, and saw one of Noah-Elise’s fathers, Dave, sitting at the kitchen table and eating a sandwich. 

Nervously, Dom reached for a glass and poured himself some water. He was waiting for the fall-out. A speech about the dangers of underage drinking, or being yelled at, or maybe even told not to hang around Noah-Elise anymore.

The longer nothing happened, the more nervous he felt, which was not going well with the hangover. “Oh, right um, where are the, cleaning supplies..? I kinda of uh.. I might’ve puked on your floor. Sir.” He didn’t know Noah-Elise’s fathers enough to know whether they would want him to call them sir, so he tacked it on just in case. In retrospect it made the rest of the sentence awkward as fuck, and he regretted it. Oh well…

Dave looked at him for a minute. “Jy het op my vloere gekots?”

“Uhh, what?” Very eloquent, Dom, great job. 

It seemed to make Dave laugh a bit though.

“I guess you haven’t been hanging around Noah-Elise enough to pick up Afrikaans. You puked on my floors, boy?”

Dom nodded, cheeks growing red. 

Dave pushed his now-empty plate towards the middle of the table and leaned back into his chair. He paused for a minute, as if evaluating Dom. Then he spoke. 

“The cleaning supplies are in the cupboard under the sink, but you won’t be needing them. The sofa’s over there.”

He.. wasn’t making Dom clean up after himself? He wasn’t mad at all? What? Where were the consequences?

Dom knew where the sofa was, and he went over to it, surprised to see a mug that had a sticker with his name on it on the coffee table. It had ginger tea. He didn’t question it, he just sipped it. It was warm. This was… nice.

Maybe being fourteen would be better than thirteen (and twelve, and eleven, and ten, and nine… ) had been. Maybe it would be nice.

Sam Heughan, who plays Jamie Fraser in Outlander, has opened up about possibly turning his hand to Bollywood. Are you sure the character's form will have a special bond?😏

SH will learn to sing and dance to perform with PeeCee (preciouspriyanka) in a Hindi film. Although Indian actors have lip-syncing singers for that. Dancing is not Sam's best skill. I don't think PeeCee has seen SH dance before.

With his feet flat, he struggles to get a bit of a rhythm 😂 but Pee Cee could carry out a Hindi movie with her husband Nick Jonas, he was a supporting actor in Love Again, and they would convince better as a couple.

Are you sure you want to make a Bollywood film in Hindi to act or to sell your booze 🥃 at the end, whisky has been the favourite spirit of India. Whisky salesman’s role would be most successful🤫

I knew something would go through SH's mind the moment Richard Madden landed in India to promote 'Citadel' with Priyanka Chopra. Sam copied Richard's style in his promo. Richard was asked if he would be interested in doing a Bollywood film, expressing his interest; it would be interesting to see him show off his skills on the big screen in India, after all, Bollywood makes more films than Hollywood.

However, SH's situation is quite different. The ulterior motive of Priyanka's friendship is based on interest. India is the largest consumer of Scotch whisky🥃 in the world. They use one another and have become friends. SH’s friendship relationships are based on interest or profit. The popular adage says…” There ain't no such thing as a free lunch".

I can’t imagine Priyanka promoting Sam's Whisky 🥃 in India. She has to take care of her husband's involvement (Villa One Tequila), But Sam thinks being associated with her name helps. On the other hand, SONA became SH's favourite restaurant in New York. Why? Because He likes to drink Indian spicy margaritas? 😜
