But according to recent data from the Global Health Observatory (GHO) branch of the World Health Organization (WHO), which recorded per capita consumption from people over the age of 15 in a single calendar year, there are nations all over the globe giving the U.S. a run for its money.

Scotch is often perceived as a spirit of prestige. It can symbolize class and elegance when displayed on a home bar. It can even be a bit of a power move when you take it off the shelf and pour it for guests.

When you think of British single malt whisky, your mind surely goes straight to Scotland. But whiskys are being made in other parts of Britain too, like in England’s Derbyshire near the beautiful Peak District.

When someone bellies up to the bar to order an Old Fashioned, the bartender will, at most, ask them if they have a bourbon preference.

Benriach Just Dropped Its Oldest Whisky Ever

Distiller: Undisclosed Bottler: World Whiskey Society ABV: 63.1% Age: 7 Years Price: $100 to $199.99.
