🥃 *Cadenhead’s *

Whisky Shop on _Canongate,_ has a unique selling point: customers can have a bottle poured straight from a cask and labeled with their name. When sealed it has a label with the ‘born on date’, as whisky stops aging as soon as it leaves the wooden barrel, so each bottle is a unique blend.

🥃 *Edradour* is the smallest distillery in Scotland. The entire operation is run by just three people

🥃The _Glenmorangie_ _distillery_ is one of the smallest in the Highlands and employs just sixteen craftsmen, called *‘The Sixteen Men of Tain’*

🥃The Australian Wine Research Institute has introduced a measure called a *standard drink.* In Australia, a standard drink contains 10 g (12.67 ml) of *alcohol,* the amount that an average adult male can metabolize in one hour.

🥃 Although their proof differs, standard drinks of *beer,* *wine* and *spirits* contain the same amount of alcohol – 0.6 ounces each. They’re all the same to a breath analyser.

🥃 18,000 litres of *Scotch whisky* worth over $800,000 were accidentally flushed down the drain at *Chivas Brothers’* Dumbarton bottling plant in 2013.

🥃Experts advise you to drink single malt with just a dash of water. The water supposedly _‘releases the serpent’_ from the whisky

🥃 If there is a serpent, there is also an angel. As it ages, 2-2.5 % of the whisky maturing in a barrel is lost to evaporation every year. Distillers refer to this as the ‘angel’s share’.

🥃 There is also a devil. The whisky absorbed by the wood of  barrel during maturation is known as the _'devil's_ _cut’_

🥃 Indian *'whisky'* is technically flavoured *rum,* because it's essentially made from sugar

🥃 *General Knowledge* *for all the Whisky* *Lovers....*
