"Wales's first foray in to the whisky market in the 1990s failed when it was sued by the Scottish Whisky Association for falsely marketing a blend of Scotch whiskies as an indigenous Welsh grain."
Interesting. (As an aside, I wonder why I didn't notice this. Maybe it was a late addition, or something -- the Indy's headlines came through to me six or eight hours earlier than usual.) The Welsh whisky I came across was on a publicity tour I underwent in the autumn of 1981.
The bit about it really being a blend of Scotches would explain why that was exactly what it tasted like.
