The coming shortage on Scotch Whisky

[Bill aka Mole]

Perhaps it is time to start looking at Japanese single malts...

They want to buy the rest, I'll just start buying theirs!

[English Bloke]

It is very expensive though - about $3 a bottle, so I drink it sparingly.

It's £3.30 a pint over here... or it was when I was in Banff in Aberdeenshire a month or two back. Mind, our pints are a bit bigger than yours I'll grant you. £3.30 is a little over $5.00 on XE today.

I paid $3.49 for a 16.9 oz bottle (bought two) in Charleston, SC two weeks ago.

OK... this is the last straw! I say we strike back and streke back hard: We should all agree to start eating more rice. ;-)

Thanks for telling me. I couldn't afford to live in England. And, that's probably before the VAT!

[Teufel Hunden]

Fear not gents, my rum will be on sale in about a year... problem solved.

All this tells me is that I need to go pick up a case or two of Talisker very soon!

I think Jock Scot has the corner on that market.
