It ain't Christmas without some Dickel.
Whiskey Maker George Dickel Caught Short
By JOE EDWARDS – 1 day ago
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — One item may be missing from holiday parties this year: George Dickel Whisky No. 8. It's scarce because the Dickel distillery shut down production from 1999 to 2003, trying to reduce inventory of the Tennessee sippin' whiskey. It worked.
And since whiskey must age, it's too early for a new batch.
Dickel has taken out ads in several newspapers, apologizing for the shortage. The ad blames the situation on "an incredible surge in demand for George Dickel No. 8," but it's been known for years that the shortage was coming.

I live near the distillery, it is pretty good stuff.
