" It seems like every once in a while, America&amp;#039;s Prohibition era re-enters popular culture in one way or another. This weekend, PBS starts showing a new, sure-to-be-authoritative, three-part documentary on the subject (happily, Ken Burns is involved \u2014 and he gets the David Wondrich seal of approval). Of course, you can also glean a more luxe take on the period from HBO&amp;#039;s Boardwalk Empire, which returned last week with a giant (maybe too giant) truck full of Canadian Club whisky, a brand that was conveniently relocated to Ontario in the late 19th century and quickly became the smuggler&amp;#039;s booze of choice, from Al Capone on down. In case you were wondering what Canadian Club looked like back then, below is a bottle of 12-year from 1921 along with a coded telegram used to illegally transport the stuff into the U.S. A case of it then cost $7. Today it&amp;#039;s $165. The taste is ryelike, which makes for a nice Old-Fashioned or Manhattan, or this funky old thing called a Ward Eight. Or, like a true Prohibition hoarder, you can enjoy your CC straight from the bottle. These days, our cash-strapped government wants you to.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
