How Chemistry Can Explain the Difference Between Bourbon and a Tennessee Whiskey | Food & Think.

Interesting article in Smithsonian online. I like a good whiskey every so often What sailor doesn’t (or at least a shot of rum)…

Is it really that important that we find out exactly what all 4000+ chemical compounds do for the drinks? I’d rather spend my time on simple taste tests.

I’d LOVE to go wander the whiskey trail over in Scotland, or Ireland, or even Kentucky one of these days.
