100 year-old Scotch

Thanks for sharing that story with the Rabble. I heard it on NPR radio this morning, and was hoping someone would pick it up and run it on the Forum. "Just a wee drab is all I'm askin', is that too much?"

Whisky is only considered to age in the cask so it might be 10yo Whisky in 100 yo bottles.

Probably true. But how often do you suppose whisky actually remains in a bottle for 100 years to test that hypothesis

The story says that 11 bottles were in the case. It does not say that 12 bottles were in the case and one was broken.
Does a case of unopened Scotch not hold 12 bottles?
Hmmm.... I wonder if there might not be some very happy folks who are not talking?
