Single Malt

I remember this conversation I had a long time ago, trying to formulate why humans gave up the cosy life of hunting, gathering and roving to settle down, face the vagrancies of the weather and pests, to grow a lot of plants, throw out everything except the seeds for consumption? The answer is clearly that they needed to brew.

Single malt whiskey has many fans, and the conversation is usually taken over by the scotch variety in its malt madness. But others have their stake too, chiefly Japanese. Enjoy. Here is a map.
