At Fadandel, in addition to Scotch whisky, we also have a small selection of American Bourbon whiskey from independent bottlers and OB bottlings.
In America (USA), just like in Scotland, many different whiskey brands are produced. In America, newmaken is based on several different types of grain such as wheat, barley, corn and rye. The type of whiskey that is most well-known is bourbon. Bourbon is primarily produced in the state of Kentucky and is referred to as Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. American whiskey is generally somewhat more readily available than Scotch whisky. This is because they usually use corn and very rarely peat smoke. Among the better-known American whiskey brands are Jack Daniels, Maker’s Mark, Four Roses and Wild Turkey, but there is also a large selection of smaller distilleries. American and Irish whiskey is spelled “whiskey” and not “whisky” as in Scotland.
If you are in doubt about which whisky to choose, we have made samples (3cl) of many of our bottlings, which can be bought here in the shop. You are also welcome to stop by our physical store so that we can guide you – and in the store you can taste many of our bottlings before you buy a bottle to take home.
On this page, there is an overview of the unique bottlings that we have in stock of American Bourbon whiskey.
