Update: Since bourbon has become such a high end spirit, I bought a bottle of Old Forester 1910 (93 proof). I think it's a well-made spirit, warm and on the slightly sweet side, heavy and mellow. But it doesn't have the complexity of the brandies that I like.
Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu, E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu... E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.
