Evan Williams is a brand of Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey bottled in Bardstown, Kentucky by the Heaven Hill company.〔 The product is aged for a minimum of four years, consistent with its designation as a Kentucky straight bourbon. ==Production== Although bottled in Bardstown, the product is distilled at the Heaven Hill distillery in Louisville. The "standard issue" Evan Williams bourbon is sold as the mass-market "Black Label" variety, which has been described as "something that's cheap and doesn't taste bad". The company also bottles several other expressions, including a "White Label" that is bottled in bond,〔 an "Evan Williams 1783" bourbon that is produced in more limited quantities and has been described as an "affordable, value-packed bourbon",〔 and a nine-year-old single barrel bourbon sold in vintage dated bottles sealed with black wax. As of June 21, 2010, Evan Williams was the second largest-selling brand of Kentucky straight bourbon (following the market leading Jim Beam brand) and had the fastest-growing market share among the top-volume American whiskey brands (with a 12.4% sales growth rate), according a press release issued by the producer citing A.C. Nielsen Scantrack 2010 data.〔(Heaven Hill Distilleries Press Room ) website page.〕〔(Evan Williams Bourbon Builds on Sales Growth with new Multi-Million Dollar Marketing Campaign ), Heaven Hill Distilleries Press Release, June 21, 2010〕 Evan Williams Black is 43% alc/vol (86 proof), unlike some popular whiskeys which are bottled at the statutory minimum of 40% alc/vol (80 proof). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Evan Williams (whiskey)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
