William Faulkner was more right than perhaps even he knew. At so many critical moments in human history, the production and consumption of our favourite spirits has played a major part. From the widely known - the role played by rum in the creation of the United States of America - to the less well publicized - the role of spirits in the creation of the factory, the tax system and reggae music - our panelists have collected the best spirit-fueled bits from History, high and low, over the last 1000 years. You'll never lose an argument with a wine-lover again!
