Bourbon
Enjoy “Tasting History®”
In the 1700’s life was hard!
Clearing the forested frontier and evading native war parties were dangerous and painful. Very few medicines existed. For example, aspirin was not commercially available until the late 1800s. Antibiotics were not invented until the 1900s. Alcoholic beverages like homemade Whiskey and Bourbon were often the only medicine handy to dull the pain and take the hard edge off of life.
A HOT TODDY was a common spirits remedy in the 1700s and well into the 1900s. Modern day research shows that a HOT TODDY is a decongestant because it vasodilates the blood vessels in the nose as well as acts as a pain suppressant.
A HOT TODDY is the suggested choice for a colds, flu or feeling blue.
