Default How do you pronounce "Bourbon"
As in the biscuits (thanks Marsh) Gav and me have this argument and he's probably right because his reasoning makes more sense but I feel like I've lived a lie for most of my life now so...

Boar-bon

BurBin

I've never in my entire life heard anybody pronounce it as "Burbin" - is that actually a thing?
