If you get a liquid/solid modem, there is rather expensive software that
will analyse the tastes of the two and you can compare the two analyses
manually or with a text comparer.

Are you sure of that? Why would French-speaking cities be different
from towns and rural areas or from non-French-speaking places?

I wonder if you went to a liquor store and looked at the ones labeled
cognac if maybe they are all from the Cognac region of France.

I think Champagne has lost its control of that word, but not every place
has.

But I don't think Worcestershire sauce was ever restricted to
Worcestershire! It's not even owned by Lea and Perrins anymore,
"Worcestershire sauce has been considered a generic term since 1876,
when the English High Court of Justice ruled that Lea & Perrins did not
own the trademark to "Worcestershire".[1]"
