くろとトラの留学日記 Englishブログ ~History of Scotch Whiskey~
Hello. It’s been ages.
I think I'll speak about whiskey today.
Previously I was talking about whiskey to a friend.
Then I told that Scotch whisky was regulated by dry law.
(dry law＝禁酒法)
But he told me.
"Dry law is only the United States."
Well, well. Certainly.
Thus, I looked up what was wrong today.
Not dry law, but Moonshine
(moonshine=密造酒ウイスキーなど)
In 1707, Scotland combines with England.
And the taxation to whiskey was strengthened substantially in 1725, and it's said that it was 15 times in another view.
Many of the producers counteract and make moonshine.
Ironically, manufacture whiskey surpassed a product of regular traders for the quality.
British king George IV at the time drunk this illegally whiskey, and aides determined that must not be like the moonshine King to decided to tax rate cuts.
This whiskey is that famous "The Glenlivet".
It has become long, so it's done to here.
There may be next :-)
I ate pizza.
The sky was beautiful.
Today's proverb
Alcohol may be man’s worst enemy, but the bible says love your enemy.
酒は人類にとって最大の敵かもしれない だが聖書はこう言っている、「汝の敵を愛せよ」と。
Frank Sinatra-New York,New York-Lyrics
Postscript
It was written neatly after a long time today.
Only the liquor is serious...
Did you say something?
Nothing.
Bye!
