Whisky matured in Loch Ness

A bottle of whisky matured in casks submerged in Scotland's Loch Ness sells at auction for over $1,000. The unique maturation process alters the molecular profile of the spirit, creating a distinct aroma and smoothness. Only six bottles exist, and the technique is being applied to other spirits as well.
