UPS gripe

Canada post left me a delivery notice last Friday. I went to the post office to collect whatever it is/was and they have no record of the item in their system. I don't know what it might have been either as I had nothing I was expecting.
 
That wasn’t a text message was it? I get them all the time“ package can’t be delivered “ all to get you to go to the provided site to get my info, same as CIBC saying there’s a problem with my account I haven’t used them since the 80’s but I’m glad they finally noticed.
 
On Monday we ordered some more Kentucky Bourbon from the Penticton area. Locally made. Three bottles with free Canada Post shipping. Arrived this morning as scheduled. All intact.

Not trying to be argumentative, but how is it Kentucky Bourbon if it’s made in BC? Bourbon, yes if it meets the standard of identity; but not Kentucky.

There’s a distillery in Hershey that makes Bourbon, but it’s Pennsylvania Bourbon:

Nope, it was an actual physical card in my old fashioned mailbox.
 
Maybe Kentucky Bourbon "Style"?
That's what I meant to write. Missed the "in the style of Kentucky Bourbon" The barrels were apparently imported from Kentucky but all the ingredients and process are done in BC. And it tastes as good or better than a high quality American one.
