John Lee Bourbon

I was wandering around my local Morrison's off licence looking for a drinkable whiskey when I happened upon Stan Lee bourbon. It was beside a bottle of Jim Beam and in close proximity to a bottle of Bulleit. At close to half the price of the latter, I thought it was worth a try.



I mixed up an Old Fashioned and really, I wasn't expecting much. Was I in for a pleasant surprise. A very smooth drinking experience.  I have no idea who makes this Bourbon, I assumed it's a white label for the low end market but after a little research it appears to be made primarily for France. I heartily recommend it, smmooth, lots of caramel, perfect for a cocktail and a great name.
