Matthew Harvey Posted Sunday at 02:25 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:25 AM Hello my fellow bourbon drinker…what is the official pronunciation for Bulleit? We believe it is pronounced the same as bullet, the ammunition. Thank you for your time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinjoe Posted Sunday at 03:24 AM Share Posted Sunday at 03:24 AM Welcome to SB! While I am sure that the pronunciation is like the ammo…bullet, I’ll be damned if I can always remember how the whiskey is actually spelled…spelt… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnbowljoe Posted Sunday at 04:02 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:02 PM Another for bullet, although……. I was at a store one time “browsing the booze”. Another guy was looking too. He saw me and we exchanged pleasantries. He picked up a bottle of Bulleit. He looked at me and asked if I knew anything about this “Boo-let” bourbon. I managed to keep a straight face and told him it was a pretty decent bourbon. He thanked me and headed to the checkout counter with bottle in hand. I did chuckle when he went around the corner. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that a boo-let or boo-lay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
