    I thought their filtration process DQ’d them from the strict bourbon definition as well, although they meet the rest of the criteria.

    In any case, it’s still disgusting and I’ll stick to Peated Scotch.

      To hell with a legal requirement. That shit isn’t even bourbon. Even Jack Daniels distillery, themselves, insist that it isn’t bourbon. (Yes, I know the law, but the law is wrong.)

      It doesn’t get to become bourbon based off of some silly technicality in the law.

      “Bourbon-style corn drink”, maybe. Or “caramel-flavored moon juice”.
