These barrels have normally been used to mature a different spirit, wine, or beer. Sherry, port, and wine are among the most common finishing casks for bourbon.

Most American whiskey makers face a seemingly inevitable fork in the road: One path is marked “bourbon,” and the other is marked “rye.” And if your mash bill doesn’t fit neatly into the federally regulated definitions of either — at least 51 percent corn in the case of bourbon, or else a minimum of 51 percent rye — then tough luck. It’s enough to keep most producers on the straight and narrow, but now and then comes a maker willing to go off-road if that means making a better whiskey.

Made in Xiaolin. Years ago, in the late 1980’s when I lived in Charleston, South Carolina, I was gifted a very special tool from my old friend, Jean-Jacques, used for smoking cheeba. He named it the chalice. It was a very simple device, a piece of timber bamboo with a hole in it, where a sandblasting tip had been inserted and sealed with wire and clay for airtightness.

European drinking culture bears many similarities to its stateside counterpart, but of course, they’re not one and the same. Ordering a Martini in Italy will likely result in your server bringing you a glass of Martini & Rossi vermouth, the Negroni retains a more nebulous identity than the three-ingredient spec we’ve become accustomed to in the U.S., and upscale, fine-dining establishments tend to be more kid-friendly than casual haunts.
