At Uni I applied for an operations job a Tate & Lyle in Greenock. There was a formal interview , a dinner & after that the site manager put a bottle of bells on the table & said if the 2 candidate could stand after drinking it we were in. The drink was Bells & coke. One whiff of cheap scotch makes me ill to this day 43 years later. I declined the job offer.
Strangely Blackbush is fine as are peaty malts.
