The rules regarding how Scotch whisky should be aged in barrels have been set in stone – or rather, oak – for centuries.



Until now, the whisky has only been allowed to mature in oak casks previously used to age spirits such as cognac.



But in a break from tradition, the Scotch Whisky Association is permitting barrels once used for tequila to be used as well.

I don't think Herman cares. He can use it shine his shitters.

This, of course, is sacrilegious.



They may have been given a green light to produce a bastard brew, but selling it will be an entirely different matter.



Seeking to expand the whisky market into the "youth" demographic is akin to Claude Monet painting cartoon characters.

This is a matter of global concern!! The future of whisky is at stake.



First tequila...next they'll be asking Herman for barrels.

I'd still drink it, but not at Scotch cost. I had tequila this past weekend.
