Distillery to revive 184-proof whisky
If you're a big enough boob, you can follow the progress of this story over the webcam:
LONDON - A Scottish distillery said Monday it was reviving a centuries-old recipe for whisky so strong that one 17th-century writer feared more than two spoonfuls could be lethal. Risk-taking whisky connoisseurs will have to wait, however - the spirit will not be ready for at least 10 years. The Bruichladdich distillery on the Isle of Islay, off Scotland's west coast, is producing the quadruple-distilled 184-proof - or 92 percent alcohol - spirit "purely for fun".Um... I can see some people wanting to drink it, after all, some people go hunting with Vice President Cheney "purely for fun".
