          You’re right. That is extremely debatable.

          The USA doesn’t even produce some of the best spirits on their own contentent.

                  I’m queer, married to a trans person, and my brother and his family is Anishinaabe. I think I might have a bit of experience in it too. And thinking “Americans don’t make good booze” isn’t bigotry, it’s nationalism. Saying “Gay people”, or “Indigenous people” don’t make good booze is bigotry.

                  Also, saying something like “American Whisky is water with an alcohol content” is also more of a personal opinion rather than an outright attack on any particular group.

                  You might want to refresh your language a little bit.

      Like with cooking it can be both. For truly terrific stuff is definately art, however for mediocre stuff it’s mainly biochemistry.

        Hell the high end stuff goes beyond and into “this can only be made properly in this county” because of climate effecting the aging process and ingredients
