A scotch shortage may be on the horizon and it may last for more than a decade. Bad news for scotch lovers!

According to a post on CNNMoney the world may be running out of old single malt Scotch whiskey, due to the increasing global demand.

The shortage is in large to do with its popularity growing in China and much of Asia where Scotch demand is high. In fact Asia now receives one fifth of the world’s scotch exports. Add to that the fact that scotch consumption has trippled in the US over the last few year. So if you’re afraid of running out of your favorite tipple, you may want to stock up now.
