Is bourbon the quintessential American liquor? Bourbon is not just alcohol - the amber-colored drink is deeply ingrained in American culture and tangled in American history. From the early days of raw corn liquor to the myriad distilleries that have proliferated around the country today, bourbon is a symbol of the United States. This course traces bourbon's entire history, from the 1700s, with Irish, Scottish, and French settlers setting up stills and making distilled spirits in the New World, through today's booming resurgence.

Proper protocols for newbies
A great part of this title is that it includes the accompanying text in the app which is immensely helpful when absorbing the information needed to create healthy, organic produce where you know where it is coming from. In addition, one thing I really liked about this audio title was that they also pack in a huge amount of knowledge regarding proper protocols when raising healthy animals that will supply your plate for the foreseeable future, and again, you know where it’s coming from! Not like store bought products. This would be an excellent first-time beginner’s listen for anyone looking to put in the work to make sure they know where their food is coming from and who desires to be self-sustainable in a day and age where we rely so heavily on supermarkets to take care of us.
