[MM-MALTS-L] Teaspooned IB Single Casks from named distilleries

Thu Jul 10 10:26:41 CEST 2008

Actually, following their reasoning, it wouldn't make sober people drunk; it
would make drunk people sober.

A number of years ago, I think it was Cooley who poured that one of the last
remaining bottle Preston Malt into a cask of Cooley single malt whiskey and
called it Preston Millennium Malt, Single Malt Whiskey. Of course it wasn't
a single malt, since the poured whiskey from another distillery into it. And
they wasted one of the last remaining bottle of Preston Malt.
