At Bourbon Culture, we decided that a 10 point rating scale was the most appropriate way to grade each of our whiskey reviews.
By making the ranking of “5” to be a perfectly average whiskey, we have much more room to grade whiskies on a wide variety of characteristics without them concentrating at one spot on our list.
You’ll notice that many of the whiskies we’ve scored have a rating between 7 and 8 because this is the point where age and proof have done all they can to make a whiskey “great,” but it requires that extra magic to push it into the realm of “Excellent” and beyond.
Whiskies that have scored between a 1 and 4 have noticeable flaws that even age and additional proof may not fix.
