Maker's Mark Bourbon House & Lounge Kansas City - photo property of The IntoxicologistKevin Gray, Dallas Drinks Examiner, is enjoying Kentucky Bourbon Festival up close and personal this week and reporting from the source. Day two at Maker’s Mark shows up in a fabulous photo slide show. There is more about Maker’s Mark in the post with promise of more about Jim Beam in his next. Be sure to bookmark Dallas Drinks Examiner.   
 
Miami Food and Drink Examiner, Rosalie E. Leposky, shares a great tale of Frederick Booker Noe traveling to South Florida to promote bourbon approximately 25 years ago. Stories such as this are only found in niche places and corner bars over a glass of bourbon while engaging in good conversation for hours on end. 
 
New Orleans Healthy Restaurants Examiner, Anne Berry, puts Bourbon to the taste test by asking Larry Kass of Heaven Hill and Jim Rutledge of Four Roses the basis of their bourbons. The final purpose isn’t for sipping purposes, but rather pairing Bourbon with food. Anne recommends various foods that pair well with Bourbon and gives the approximate calories per ounce for this great American spirit.
 
San Jose Cocktails Examiner, Janette Williams, goes ‘gaga’ over the Champagne Julep cocktail. This cocktail fit for a lady is a tweaked up Mint Julep in a champagne flute. Kansas City Cocktails Examiner, Angie Rayfield, gives a delicious looking Hot Apple Toddy recipe for cool evenings or better yet, mornings one can snuggle back under the covers with a newspaper and enjoy a relaxing Saturday. The Citrus Manhattan makes great use of Maker’s Mark, Sweet Vermouth, Aperol and fresh juices all discovered by Las Vegas Bars Examiner, Kevin LastovicaAltamonte Springs Bars Examiner, Lara Hershbein, came straight and to the point with her coverage of Bourbon in much the same way many prefer to consume their spirit of choice – neat. This is a no frills post with eight recipes
 
Nine Maker’s Mark recipes appear in the photo drink recipe slide show below. There is even a bit of Maker’s Mark trivia about the famous red wax dipped bottle.
