La part des Anges Douglas, I'd be satisfied with just this ;-)

BTW some Scotch Whiskies (are there any other BTW?) are aged in  
barrels bought from Yquem and a few other select wineries (I hate the  
term, smacks of manufactured goods and not of art, or at least  
crafmanship).

Thanks for the fumes
Philippe
