Supports a broader authorship model that includes selection and blending. Specific Canadian technical generalizations should be corroborated before public use. Blending authorship is useful; the9.09%/10mL-in100mL example has an inconsistent denominator and is not adopted as a regulatory or formulation rule.
The author contrasts Canadian production and storytelling conventions with American emphasis on the distiller.
