Just scanning through the content section of Andrew Smith’s book entitled Drinking History, I came across the chapter entitled “Tarantula Juice.” Lo and behold, it was about whiskey. I have been a fond drinker of whiskey for years. I even named one of my kids after my favorite maker. I am not a raving alcoholic, but now, I have a better knowledge of the spirit I love. Whiskey, like many other things, has a history. However, the history of whiskey in America is an interesting one, considering it had a rebellion named after it. I understood the premise of the Whiskey Rebellion, but the roots are more than just the taxes that were imposed. Whiskey, was labeled as the “Poor Man’s Drink,” due to how inexpensive it was to produce. Unlike rum, whiskey could made in mass quantities within a household from the use of simple grains. This I did not know, but whiskey was easier to transport from locale to locale than it was to transport grains. It was such a commodity, that in his book Drinking History, Andrew Smith points out that share coppers and tenants could pay their rent with it. Rum, on the other hand, needed molasses. Molasses became hard to come by due to the Revolutionary War and the trade that was lessened with the Caribbean, thus driving up the cost of rum. Those with money at the time could handle the price of rum as well as the taxes placed on alcohol. However, for those whose sole trade was creating and transporting whiskey from areas such as the frontier into more populated areas, the tax was a considerable hardship, thus leading up to the Whiskey Rebellion. The countless varieties made by different distillers in different locales made whiskey a local favorite. Smith goes on to list the names given to whiskey that represented the area. Some of these were “‘mountain fever,’ ‘tarantula juice,’ ‘mountain howitzer,’ and ‘leg-stretcher.'” For me, whiskey has one name: Jameson. What did not surprise me is that whiskey in some places was safer to drink than the water supply itself due to the process used to create the drink. One last thought, a little comparison of what is known of alchohol then and now.
