Last Saturday, we had a blast with Coopers’ Craft! A group of South Florida Bloggers were invited to a Summer Sipper hangout at House Kitchen & Bar in Coral Gables. We got to try 3 delicious Summer cocktail recipes using Coopers’ Craft Bourbon. They were refreshing and sophisticated – the perfect cocktails to serve at your next shindig or pool party! This Summer, bourbon is in.
Coopers’ Craft Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a refined, toasted wood whiskey—aged in barrels with a unique Beech and Birch charcoal finishing process. It’s smooth, easy to drink and meant to be shared.

What makes Coopers’ Craft Bourbon Unique?
Nearly 150 years ago, when Brown Forman began bottling bourbon, they recognized the importance of craftsmanship and the role of the wooden barrel as an essential ingredient. Since 1945 they have been raising their own new barrels; and now are the only major distiller to do so.
