While I am a usually a straight irish whiskey/scotch man myself I do appreciate a good bourbon every now and then. Having its roots in the 18th-19th centuries from the early settlers moving west from the original colonies to the Kentucky area - Bourbon County to be specific - bourbon was giving the presidential stamp by LBJ as "The Official Spirit of America". So on this National Bourbon Day, June 14th (which also happens to be Flag Day - coincidence?) go out and enjoy three fingers of Jim, Maker's, Woodford or another fine bourbon or bourbon based mixed beverage and thank God for America!
