Poetry and Scotch- The Vision Basically, this is what the Redhurt has suggested. I like it.
"so, for your template, I'm thinking of a picture of an old fashioned with scotch in it, obviously, and either a book or a piece of paper with some stuff written on it. Maybe do the whole thing in black and white with only the scotch in color....maybe the writing on the poem is written in some color too...like red..for blood...because you've written it in your own blood...your passion.....the blood of the martyrs.....and then the scotch turns into blood too..because it's the life you're drinking back into you, despite their curses and tears....and the endless years....and you write out your pain in poetry and drink the blood back in through the pleasure of scotch and then you become some sort of weird poetry writing vampire who drinks his own blood once it's fermented into the alcohol you need to put fire in your veins and hair on your vampire chest. And also maybe we'll have a black and white picture of walt whitman."

Walt Whitman was gay. Thats all.
Did you know that Scotch -- and all whiskeys -- don't age at all once their taken out of the barrel they're fermented in? That means that if you buy 12 year old scotch today, its still 12 year old scotch in 100 years. Weird, huh?
They stop maturing once they are bottled, not when they're removed from the cask. They only time they stop aging is when they fall into a black hole, or something like that...
Sorry to pick your nits, blame wikipedia.
I would assume that they would take it straight from the cask to the bottle. Where would they put it in between time? Some sort of an intermediate pitcher or aquarium?
