Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is bottled egg nog done the Kentucky way: a cream liqueur built on a cream and egg nog base with McAfee's Benchmark Old #8 Bourbon blended in, from the Sazerac Company. Pour it and you get a pale golden, velvety glass that smells of nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla custard, with a little oak and caramel from the bourbon underneath. On the palate it is creamy and balanced in its sweetness, with rich egg custard and warming spice up front, then a gentle bourbon heat on a finish that lingers with vanilla and nutmeg. It suits anyone who loves holiday nog but would rather skip the whisking, and it makes an easy crowd-pleaser for hosts who want something festive ready to pour. Bourbon purists should see it as a seasonal treat, not a sipping whiskey. We carry it because it does one job well: it delivers the comfort of a classic holiday tradition with real Kentucky Straight Bourbon character, ready for a party, a Christmas brunch or a nightcap by the fire.
Pairs well with
- Christmas morning brunch — Its rich egg custard and vanilla notes fit right in with a slow, festive breakfast spread.
- Spiced holiday cookies — The nutmeg and cinnamon in the nog echo the warm spices in a plate of seasonal cookies.
- Fireside nightcap — A smooth, warming finish with a gentle bourbon heat makes it a comforting last pour of the evening.

Either works. Serve it chilled for a refreshing treat or warm it for a cozy winter drink. A dusting of freshly grated nutmeg or cinnamon, a cinnamon stick or whipped cream finishes it nicely. For a twist, add a splash of coffee liqueur or dark rum.
