Purists look away

[Panache]

I believe I remember reading recently that whiskey sales in the US were not projected to increase. This looks like a response to that, much the way that Gin distillers have been introducing flavored gins to try to take back ground from the huge increase in vodka sales.

Though if I want flavored scotch I'll have a Rusty Nail*

Cheers







* if you don't know what a Rusty Nail is you really need to consider spending some quality time at X Marks the Scot's sister site THe Pub.

I've tried it (I guess one of my friends got a hold of the trial run here in Boston). It's, um, sweet. And doesn't taste like the Macallan. Not my thing at all, but I guess it's no crazier than Drambuie.
