Rover, you're not actually saying that Kentuckians care about McConnell sh-tting all over them, are you?

Sarcasm aside, dx is right, there are plenty of places that make "bourbon" in the exact same way Kentucky makes theirs, but they can't technically label it bourbon.

Except that isnt true at all. Bourbon need only be made in the US to be called bourbon and it can label it as such.

The Federal Standards of Identity for Distilled Spirits, codified under 27 CFR §5.22(b)(1)(i), states bourbon made for U.S. consumption[21] must be:

Produced in the United States[22]
Made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn[23]
Aged in new, charred oak containers[23]
Distilled to no more than 160 (U.S.) proof (80% alcohol by volume)[23]
Entered into the container for aging at no more than 125 proof (62.5% alcohol by volume)[23]
Bottled (like other whiskeys) at 80 proof or more (40% alcohol by volume)[24]

Go to any liquor store and you can find bourbon made in other states that literally say bourbon on the label. There are ones from Colorado, Oregon, The Great Lakes Region...hell one of my favorites is from Minnesota!

edit: and no "Bourbon Whiskey" is not a different designation as Kentucky Bourbons (including the ones I have on my bar 10 feet from me) are labelled as such. The Kentucky thing is a myth.

Well, sh-t, at least we won't need the Mexicans coming here to supply bourbon to everyone once ScoobyDoo burns us down. We still have the largest cave system in the world, which I guess I'll hide in once the fire commences.

From Federalist 21:

The wealth of nations depends upon an infinite variety of causes. Situation, soil, climate, the nature of the productions, the nature of the government, the genius of the citizens, the degree of information they possess, the state of commerce, of arts, of industry, these circumstances and many more, too complex, minute, or adventitious to admit of a particular specification, occasion differences hardly conceivable in the relative opulence and riches of different countries. The consequence clearly is that there can be no common measure of national wealth, and, of course, no general or stationary rule by which the ability of a state to pay taxes can be determined. The attempt, therefore, to regulate the contributions of the members of a confederacy by any such rule, cannot fail to be productive of glaring inequality and extreme oppression.

This inequality would of itself be sufficient in America to work the eventual destruction of the Union, if any mode of enforcing a compliance with its requisitions could be devised. The suffering States would not long consent to remain associated upon a principle which distributes the public burdens with so unequal a hand, and which was calculated to impoverish and oppress the citizens of some States, while those of others would scarcely be conscious of the small proportion of the weight they were required to sustain. This, however, is an evil inseparable from the principle of quotas and requisitions.

I won't be shedding any tears for Itch, Dump, or Bannon. In fact, they'd better be planning private property and/or guards for Dump's grave, because otherwise I might make a trip just to whip it out and take a p155 on it.

Oh wait, rumor has it he'd like that. :eek:

Wouldn't a used barrel contribute to the flavor more than a new one?

I barrel age cocktails and the "strength" of the flavor will fade with subsequent agings in the same barrel. There is a lot more to it than that when aging whisy but just an example that it can be less with subsequent agings.

Huh. I was assuming that the previous aging in that barrel would have permeated into the wood, and then been released when aging a new batch. I guess its the opposite, the smokey flavor from the barrel leeches into the whiskey, and so there's less of it for subsequent batches to absorb.
