Late last year, a hidden trove of whisky was discovered in a cellar room deep within a 13th century Scottish castle. The liquid was subsequently tested and determined to have been distilled back in 1833, making it the oldest known scotch in existence. Now two dozen bottles of it are going under the hammer in a November auction.
It honestly blows my mind that the oldest whiskey on the planet is only from 1833. I dint know why but it feels like there should be more and older.
What can I say, humanity likes to party. All the booze is gone.
Old wine turns to vinegar that’s why the words look similar. All alcohol eventually turns.
I’m kinda glad because it means it got drunk. I hate seeing good whisky/ey sit on a shelf.
