[Old and Reliable]

That brand of bourbon was the favorite of John Voelker- aka- Robert Traver, fly fisherman, lawyer, judge and curmudgeon first class from the UP- So, being an avid reader of his writings (I have the scarce "Danny And The Boys and Troubleshooter" and of course, Trout Madness) all great reads. John Traver's father Nick owned a brewery and a saloon- sent his son to the U of M and their fine Law School- great story in an older GSJ-- "Fishermen By Night" in which John tells of his Dad- and his "assigned duty" to make and refill the whiskey sours for Nick and his many friends- "A Doubler" was Nick Traver's term for a double shot, apparently. John served his Cabin Still whiskey sours in Mason Jars to his fishing pals at his cabin on Frenchman's Pond--to get an invite there was "top shelf" as John traver did not suffer fools easily-You had best be fishing dry flies with a split cane rod, have your drinking cap set right, and be a whiz at cribbage- he was a shark at that card game==

Maryland- Liquor Control Commisssion- we were in Ocean City this past June, my baby sister and her hubby are silent partners in both the Big Peckers Restaurant and the equally infamous Brass Balls Saloon across the causeway- But we made a side trip up to Fell's point to visit the reportedly oldest tavern in MD-- "You And The Horse You Rode In On"-- I would guess Jimmy Beam was the main choice in Bourbon-- Canadian Club in blended-- all good, but Old Cabin Still and George Dickel are true "sippin' whiskies" IMO!!
