Also, under “What Is Bourbon?” take note the “<” and “>” arrows next to percentages aren’t clear as to indications of how the ABV is represented. Follow the corresponding white line arrows from the respective areas to the right side of this part of the infographic for a better understanding of how the proof should be appearing.
Bottles is a liquor store out of Rhode Island I’ve had the pleasure of purchasing from a few times in my never ending quest to collect craft whiskey bottles from around the country (more on that in a future post). I stumbled across recently an excellent infographic from them on pretty much every basic thing you should know about bourbon, such as straight vs small batch vs single barrel, which you can check out for your own educational purposes below.
