Tom, for bourbon... On the rocks or mixed drink?
I've been to a few scotch tastings, and my choice of drink has wandered: first was brandy, then gin, then scotch. (And my beer is usually a selection from the LCBO: one woman many beers.)
Then I watched Anthony Bourdain's show. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2 ... olina.html

And chef Sean Brock shows off bourbon. Bourbon has become "drink du jour" , a collectors item for old bottles of certain names, and lots of controversy from the theft of barrels from Jack Daniels distillery (not unlike the maple syrup theft from a Quebec warehouse). Plus I have a Mens Journal mag where there was a feature story. The only American Bourbon I like (from the bottles i've tried so far) is Buffalo Trace.
I am an occasional tippler so if you come for a visit I have nothing on hand: if I buy it I drink it.

Baron, I have so much to do today that I have to be disciplined and not read this thread. But I'll be back to it when I have some time!! Miss your knowledge and perspective!
