The Results
We had 30 score cards submitted. A perfect score 25 points and there was only one that got that score.
I scored the results 3 different ways with the same results.
1. I scored the top point getter 4, 2nd was 3, 3rd was 2 and lowest score was 1. If there was a tie it would be scored as such. Example if there were 2 first place scores both bourbons would get a 4 and then a 3 to the next 2 lowest score.
2. I tailed up each score card by the actual number score awarded from the guest(s) and added them all together.
3.First Place votes. All 3 were the same results.
DRUM ROLL PLEASE....
BEST BOURBON OF THE NIGHT....
1st PLACE GOES TO PEERLESS BOURBON
2nd PLACE GOES TO OLD FORESTER 100 PROOF
3rd PLACE GOES TO PENELOPE WHEATED BOURBON
4th PLACE GOES TO HIGH WEST BOURBON
This was very close on all 3 score sheets if you factor in price results may have been different.
