I'll just take the cue from the historical period when the Volstead Act ruled the land and look toward our Neighbors To The North for some of those Canadian spirits that made the Kennedys' fortune.

While classic single malt is a product of Scotland, one would think that other distilleries in other parts of the world would be producing something in the same style. Don't I remember seeing a reference a while back on the forum to a single malt style whisky made in Canada?

Speaking for the citizens of Illinois, maybe it's the way to go in this tortured economy...one of the suburbs of Chicago IS Highland Park and who could resist a bottle of Glen Berwyn, Glen Kenosha or Glen Posen?

Thinking on it, don't Turpin and McFarkus have some interest in a farm out in Western Illinois? C'mon guys, I know where we can find some old barrels...

Best
