This whisky might kill you

According to the Times of London, a distillery in Scotland has begun making the strongest whisky again.

Twelve barrels of the world’s most alcoholic whisky, or enough to wipe out a medium-size army, will be produced when the Bruichladdich distillery revives the ancient tradition of quadruple-distilling today. With an alcohol content of 92 per cent, the drink may not be the most delicate single malt ever produced but it is by far and away the world’s strongest. Malt whisky usually has an alcohol content of between 40 per cent and 63.5 per cent

The whisky has an alcohol content of 92 percent and was thought to be strong enough that two spoonfuls could kill you. It has also attracted the watchful eye of the US Secret Service, which is wary of its possible use as a WMD:

The US Secret Service admitted in 2003 that it had been monitoring the distillery because the difference between distilling a fine whisky and making chemical weapons was “just a small tweak”.
