While channel surfing last night, I happened upon Travel Channel's Booze Traveler. Upon changing the channel, I saw guys with leaves of tobacco in a curing barn and was somewhat amused that the parties involved had found a way to incorporate tobacco into liquor. There was something about how old whiskey and rum barrels had been used to cure tobacco for some time and how they could flip that paradigm on its head and flavor alcohol with tobacco. The host of the show quite enjoyed it, citing a lot of the same flavor identifiers that we associate with good tobacco.
