First developed in 18th-century Germany, Bärenjäger Honey Bourbon is bottled at 35% ABV and blends American bourbon with a liqueur made from German honey, using about 225 grams per 750ml.
But hey, it’s actually pretty good stuff. It’s a far cry from Tennessee Honey and other whiskey-heavy honey liqueurs, but if you’re looking for a bigger honey kick in your cocktail — or even want to sip something honey-flavored straight (it’s for my cold, ma!) — this new release does the trick quite nicely.
