Clay Risen of the Atlantic Monthly has an article this month with the wordy and alarmist title of, "For American Distillers a Whiskey Crisis Looms on the Horizon" warning of an impending disaster if the mostly small distillers keep trying to find a way to age whiskey faster (meaning cheaper). Personally I think that the entire point of small distillers is to experiment. The world doesn't need another whiskey that tastes like Jim Beam after all we already have Jack Daniel's for that (I kid).

"An unsteady forklift dropped a container full of fine Australian wine worth more than $1 million, smashing most of the bottles."
As a side note I had no idea the wine maker of Mollydooker was named "Sparky".
