The reviewer gave this recipe 5 stars. This recipe averages a 3.86 star rating.

I had to put a one star for the kid friendly rating because this really is an "adults only" cake as the bourbon is added after the cooking which means none of the alcohol is cooked off. The taste of this cake is fantastic and if you serve it to anyone who even remotely likes bourbon they will NOT be disappointed. Great cake. Thanks!

This cake really needs a chance to mellow...at least overnight. It gets better with age, especially with extra splashes of bourbon every so often.

I made this cake before the Holidays and was very disappointed. A fairly expensive cake to make and did not have much flavor to it at all.

I'm a huge bourbon fan and even I had trouble with this one-- the cake was great, but the bourbon poured on after was overpowering--was like eating a shot of bourbon--very strong-- tasted better after sitting for a day-- may try again but pour less bourbon over top (maybe bake more within), decrease the pecans and maybe "candy" a portion of the pecans in the cake as the cake is not very sweet. Would also be good with a powdered sugar glaze spiked with bourbon. Good cake, just too strong.

I made this for some men who I use to work for and they LOVED It. Can you guess why??
