Becoming a Certified Bourbon Steward

If ever you have a few hours to spare and see a class offered on becoming a Certified Bourbon Steward I highly recommend it. For just over three hours or so we covered as much about Bourbon as you would probably ever want to know and rounded it off with a tasting of four different bourbons. Learning all about nosings, tastings and finish in the process.

The class was not only very educational but also a lot of fun and I decided I might as well take the online exam a few days later and passed to earn the Certified Bourbon Steward certification. The course and exam is offered by the Stave and Thief and I was lucky enough to be part of a class so it only cost $125 all-in including a course book. Perhaps one of the most enjoyable Saturday afternoon classes I’ve ever been in and a great way to learn more about Bourbon.
