Use exact dates and institutions: 1964 for distinctive-product status; 2007 for the Senate’s Native Spirit recognition.
Distinguish the 1964 concurrent resolution from a joint resolution or statute, and the Senate-only 2007 resolution from an enactment of both houses.
The 1964 concurrent resolution recognized bourbon as a distinctive product of the United States; it did not use America’s Native Spirit. Senate Resolution 294 recognized the latter wording in 2007 while attributing it incorrectly to 1964. Hannush traces intervening journalism and whiskey marketing.
