Whisky galore - investment in the Scottish economy

There is a lot of interesting economics in this short BBC news clip on the opening of a new large-scale distillery near Elgin in Scotland. I enjoyed some great times nearby two years ago when I completed the Speyside Way and it is heartening to see the new investment from Diageo in boosting the production capacity of an industry that - remarkably - contributes 25% of the total value of food and drink exports from the UK
