I opened a new topic because I did not know where to put the question.
The whisky's patron saint exists or not?

Perhaps whisky should have one? Anybody got any suggestions? How about Michael Jackson?

Doesnt a patron saint have to have acheived sainthood already.

Aberlour would probably nominate St Drostan as Aberlours water source comes from St Drostans Well which is situated within the grounds of the Aberlour distillery where St. Drostan conducted his Baptismals in the spring of water that is now used for whisky production by the Aberlour distillery.

Then again some may say whisky is the devils work Twisted Evil

Not me though, its a god send Very Happy

The Scotland's patron saint could also be whisky's patron saint?
