Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Or the stuff that would normally be aged 4 years is being held back and aged for 6 years

Make blended whiskey. Use some 2 and 6 year to make some blended 4. And any extra before barreling can be made into gin, vodka or a host of other products.

"Blended" implies different mash bills mixed together. It's all mixed from various barrels, unless it specifically says "single barrel". That process is called "batching" and they will add what they need to to hit the flavor profile. The youngest constituent age is what has to be listed on the bottle.

Ah, Canada likely has different mixing regulations. And those are specifically for bourbon and not whiskey in general yeah?

The jargon and practices are US whiskey, yeah
