I have always liked Burns Tam o Shanter even more so with these illustrations, very good.

I am sure many whisky drinkers have heard reference to John Barleycorn and dont know where it originates from:

Inspiring bold John Barleycorn!
What dangers thou canst make us scorn!
Wi' tippeny, we fear nae evil;
Wi' usquabae, we'll face the devil!--

[Samson]
