Better Not Make That A Double!

The owners of a small distillery on a Scottish Island came across a recipe from 1695 for quadruple-distilled whiskey.

It results in a drink that is 92% alchohol. Upon trying it out, owner Mark Reynier found that what happens first is that your knees start to tremble. Then, when you swallow it, it apparently goes "...'whomp' straight down your chest". Some drinks are strong enough to put hair on your chest. I suspect this is strong enough to take it off again. And, ladies, no wax required!

The last time this distillery was in the news was a couple years ago when the Defence Threat Reduction Agency of the U.S. government monitored the distillery's web-cams. They feared the Scots were secretly making chemical weapons.

I guess they already knew about the whiskey.
