Come to think of it, it probably is your daddy’s bourbon.  But thanks to the vagaries of marketing, it almost certainly isn’t your bourbon.  It’s Old Grand Dad.  For decades, Old Grand Dad was a nearly iconic presence on the American spirit industry landscape.  Throughout most of the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s, it was almost impossible to read a magazine without coming across an Old Grand Dad ad (one of which, from around 1980, is above).  But it’s popularity wasn’t just the result of a clever advertising campaign.  The fact is, Old Grand Dad has always been a consistently smooth,...

Whenever we start talking about single malt whiskies, it feels as though there’s a built in assumption that we’re talking about Scotch.  Well, what better time to break out of that silly little rut (granted, if one has to be stuck in a rut, then a single malt Scotch rut is a pretty good choice) than now, when we should all be Irish for a day.  And what better way to celebrate than with a delicious Irish single malt. Two in particular come to mind immediately.   The first is Knappogue Castle 12 year, a crisp, unpeated, slightly citrusy, refreshing whiskey...
