"It is well established among drinking men that the liquor to drink in any given locality is liquor made from plants native to that soil and climate. If you want to keep your broad-minded, but conservative, grandfather from seeing pink elephants in the tropics you don't serve him beer. You serve rum. A good glass of Irish whiskey which would serve to stave off chill and cold on the Emerald Isle would probably knock you into a cocked hat in the middle of the Sahara."
-- Thomas Calvert McClary,
in an article in ASF,
August 1938.
