For an even deeper flavor, consider preparing the glaze a day in advance and storing it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This allows the spices to fully meld with the other ingredients. During the last hour of baking, baste the ham with the glaze every 15-20 minutes to create a beautiful, caramelized crust. Be careful not to burn the glaze. If you prefer a less pronounced bourbon flavor, you can substitute apple cider vinegar or pineapple juice for a tangier glaze.
