Evan Williams Bourbon is full of character and it is done right. This bourbon has aged for a minimum of 4 years which makes it smooth, rich and easy to enjoy. Evan Williams Black Label was introduced back in 1957. Initially a 7 year 90 proof bourbon with garish packaging, it has made a few changes over the period. Evan Williams Black Label is made from Heaven Hill’s standard bourbon mash bill: 78% corn, 10% rye, 12% malted grain. It’s non-age stated. Also, it is the second best-selling bourbon in the world.
History
