Spirits

Cognac isn’t distilled spirit—it’s distilled law.

Gin isn’t about taste—it’s about who gets to define what counts as medicine, vice, or national identity.

Ouzo isn’t just a drink—it’s a legal boundary drawn in aniseed.

Tequila isn’t a drink—it’s a land-use policy with alcohol content.

Vermouth isn’t ancient—it’s Italian. And its real history starts in Turin, not the Shang dynasty.

Whisky isn’t born of craft—it’s forged by accident, refined by commerce, and sold as heritage.
