## What is Bourboneur?

BOURBONEUR helps you know the price before you pay it and track value after you do. Turn your bourbon collection into something you can actually understand and act on—whether you’re buying, trading, or collecting.

Track your collection like an investment with real-time value tracking, performance insights, and trend analysis. Compare your bottles against the broader market, the Bourboneur Secondary Index, and even benchmarks like the S&P 500.

Access the Bourbon Blue Book for instant fair market pricing across thousands of bottles, backed by real transaction data—no guessing or overpaying. Search and track over 11,000 bottles with price ranges, trend data, and bottle-level insights.

Analyze trades before you make them with a proprietary tool that shows what you’re giving, what you’re getting, and who’s winning. And beyond investing, BOURBONEUR helps you enjoy what you own—track pours and tasting notes, get personalized recommendations, and discover insights from the bourbon world.

### 2/5 — Missing Basic Features

*2026-07-06*

It is inexcusable for a paid app to not have basic sorting and filtering for such a large database. Search alone doesn’t cut it when there are so many variations of similar bottles. I gave up on the blue book because it was so difficult to find prices for the specific bottles I was interested in. It could be a good resource, but it isn’t worth the effort at this point.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2026-06-08, version 1.0.49*

Downloaded, promoted to pay $25. Deleted immediately

### 5/5 — Slowly moving all my tracking here

*2026-05-07*

Very happy with the continued improvements to the app, close to deleting the remaining ones I have to use this one exclusively

### 1/5 — Meh

*2026-05-04, version 1.0.42*

It’s great for seeing secondary values but does a poor job on your inventory.  Can only see a few characters so can’t distinguish between different batches/proofs.  Also, adds the values together if you have more than 1 bottle of a whiskey so it skews the results when sorting high to low.

### 1/5 — Reinstalled

*2026-04-21, version 1.0.40*

I had this app a few months ago dropped it and went to reinstall and resubscribe but the app will not move past login/ subscription screen

### 5/5 — Impressive app with new updates soon!

*2026-04-02*

I love the simplicity and comprehensiveness of this app for tracking my bourbon and rye collection. Intuitive and spot on! Many updates are planned early here in 2026, so I can’t wait to see what’s next!

### 1/5 — Not Free

*2026-03-21, version 1.0.40*

Not free as the app suggests. Must give credit card and after 7-day trial, you are charged annually. I wouldn’t mind paying for the app if that was displayed up front and one-time. Oh well.

### 5/5 — Love this app and its content!

*2026-02-02*

I boarded the BOURBONEUR train last year and is now my preferred means of travel! Not only have I found the content valuable and engaging as a proud bourbon knowledge junkie, I’ve also enjoyed the tracking tools for both watching the secondary market and valuation of my bottles/collection. Thanks for balancing fact, function and fun!!

### 5/5 — Great Idea, execution issues

*2026-01-24*

I love the idea of being able to log my 121 bottles into one spot. I haven’t been able to open it and update for the last 2 Weeks. Just a circle spinning. (Update - I did reach out to the developer on this issue twice. I got a response back the 2nd time and the issue was corrected within a short period of time. I do like the idea of the app and it does have a lot of useful info.  Thank you for correcting the issue.)

### 3/5 — Great Idea, execution issues

*2026-01-11*

I love the idea of being able to log my 121 bottles into one spot. I haven’t been able to open it and update for the last 2 Weeks. Just a circle spinning. Think if your charging people your app would consistently work.
