Can bourbon kill mold?

Alcohol and Mold

Drinking alcohol such as bourbon and vodka will probably not do a great job at killing mold because it contains a lot of sugar and the strength of the alcohol is not enough to cause serious damage-

in addition the inebriated little mold spores might have lowered inhibitons leading to reckless behavior, and ultimately... more mold.

I would try rubbing alcohol (70% Isopropyl) or store bought mold killers.

Is there an American bourbon that has no wheat?

The phrase "American bourbon" is redundant; by law, bourbon must be made in the United States to be called bourbon. Most bourbon has no wheat. A typical bourbon mash includes corn, rye, and malted barley. The legal requirement is a minimum 51% corn. Everything else is optional. Malted barley is used in small amounts (5%-15%) to aid in fermentation. Without it, enzymes need to be added to start fermentation. Rye is the more common flavoring grain. Wheat is more expensive (as a grain) but is used by a few bourbon brands, notably Maker's Mark, Weller, Fitzgerald, and the Van Winkle bourbons.

What are the top ten bourbons?

Here is my list. In the end it's a matter of personal taste. I've restricted my list to those below $100.00, just because you can get rare or very aged bourbon that go for hundreds and would render the list kind of pointless for most people. You can get all of these relatively easily on-line (except the top two are kind of hard to find).
