How to Spot Fake Whiskey (New Research) | Miss Brewbird

The most expensive bottle of whisky ever sold was a Macallan Fine and Rare 60 year old 1926 which sold on Thursday October 24 2019 for a whopping £1.45 million pounds at auction. With whisky commanding such jaw dropping prices, it's no surprise that fraudsters are trying to get in on the action. In Part 2 of 'To Catch a Whisky Fraud' we go over new research which is being developed to detect counterfeit and adulterated whiskey. New techniques include: the artificial tongue, laser spectrometry, and vibrational spectrometry.
