At the end of the tour, they had a tasting session, where you could compare whiskey, whisky and bourbon. There was a few different sorts of Irish whiskey, Johnny Walker as the representative of the Scots, and Jim Bean bourbon. Frankly, Jim Beam tasted like baby-oil ;) Why anyone would wish to drink it rather than use it as lubricant, perhaps for Leicas (on topic) is beyond me. Then again, I'm British and I drink industrial-strength Ty-Phoo which is probably brewed for waaaay too long, I live in Sweden and enjoy the occasional "sill" (pickled fish), so national heritage probably has a lot to answer for ;-) M. - -- Martin V.
