    Less Scotch whisky going to American and less American whiskey coming over here? I’m struggling to see a downside.

        There are great options everywhere, including American whiskey. But with so many options, losing one is not a big deal.

        I’d be curious how many people go looking specifically for American whiskey purposely looking past all other alternatives because that’s exactly what they want.
