Talk:Evan Williams (whiskey)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
To which "Inland Empire" does the text refer?
Years Aging
I just bought a 1.75 liter bottle of Evan Williams (Black Label) and cannot find the familiar "Aged 7 Years" label anywhere on it! (Instead it says only "Extra Aged." And I'm pretty sure I can taste the difference. It's bland, like Old Crow. The real Evan Williams has a nice, full, sludgy, fungusy taste.) This calls for some investigation on the "7 years" claim--to find a valid source regarding any changes in the recipe, or varieties sold in the domestic (U.S.) market. I'd do it myself, but I'm too deep into the bottle to do anything useful tonight.
It looks like the "Inland Empire" guy was a college kid celebrating the end of the school year--that's my guess anyway.
I apologize for the lack of a decent signature, but I'm a new editor.
