Written reading complete. Original HTML is preserved in the Wikipedia package linked from the Source record. Remote images, remaining primary corroboration and page-presentation checks remain open. This is not a fully processed source.

Source argument

The narrative follows disputed origins, Seagram-era market positioning and the two-mashbill/five-yeast production framework.

Evidence map

LINK-211, revision 1373289540: full numbered extraction lines 1–76 reviewed, including written reference entries and any tables. These locators identify the reviewed snapshot, not the underlying cited publications.

Paul Jones 1888 and Rose-family origin claims need original evidence. Facility date 1910 differs from brand date. Difficult US availability is not absolute absence. 2019 proof-gallon capacity is not physical liquid volume or realized output. Ten possible recipes does not mean every product contains all ten. Reference 20, DOI 10.1037/e670562012-001, is an unrelated psychology-awards entry and cannot support the whiskey award.

No unverified direct quotations promoted. Detailed local critical checkpoint retained alongside the numbered reading file.

Researcher synthesis

The recipe framework is a useful blending-retrieval connection, bounded by actual bottling composition. Quarantine the mismatched citation and check award organizers.

Assessment

Tertiary discovery evidence only. Preserve contradictory and time-dependent claims as open checks, not resolved facts. Images, native preservation and presentation pending. Source-reading completeness does not prove factual accuracy; no History/profile/trial changes.

Completion checklist

Full written reading and critical assessment recorded.
Author argument and researcher synthesis separated.

Images and native preservation complete.
