Answer to Question 2
According to a resolution passed by the U.S. Senate, Bourbon can be made anywhere in the United States, but it cannot be made outside of the United States. There are four defining agents that distinguish Bourbon from other American whiskeysBourbon must be:
made from a mash that is at least 51 percent corn
made from no other additives, other than water
distilled no more than 160 proof, but enters the barrel at no more than 125 proof
aged for a minimum of 2 years in charred new white oak barrels
