What the Maker’s Mark dilution debacle says about corporate strategy

For traditionalist sticklers, you can purchase Evan Williams 100 proof fairly commonly (white label).

99% of people honestly could not care less and probably shouldn't. I only care for traditionalism's sake that I grew up on the KY border and simply like to do it the "right way" down to the pewter goblets, ya know? (us dirt farmers don't mess with silver)

EW is solid, it's what most higher end bars use as rail whiskey. They make a single barrel small batch also that's really fantastic. I'll have to give credit to John C. Dvorak for the recommendation on that one. $25 a fifth too.

Had no idea about the white label 100, I bet that's even better for derby juleps :) I will defer to the dirt farmers here. I come from a line of Texas circus performers, I don't think they knew much about cocktails because they tended to put the booze directly in the glass (not necessarily a good thing, given the number of broken homes!)
