A couple of hurricanes hit where some of our cohorts hang out, and they stock up on Single Malt. Now Scotland has announced two Single Malt Peat filtering distilleries, that have been closed since 1982 will have to reopen to meet demand. $46 Million to be invested. Just how much is Stoops and Doc's liquor budget?

I do not doubt that they have to expand to keep up demand. Whisky is the single largest export of Scotland. Every little village I visited while there had a distillery, plus huge old stone warehouses to store the barrels. If a brew is 12, 25, or older it takes a lot of space. I saw one barrel of Clynelish that was original from that distillery that was valued at over 10,000lb, even though over 2/3 of it is now "angel share". I got to admit that having a "wee dram" every night along with Scottish friends gives you a whole different perspective on life!!
