Post-Brexit, Scotland finds solace in whisky sales spike

SCOTLAND lost the Brexit battle, but the vote to leave the European Union has been an unexpected boon for its whisky business.
A plunge in the pound after the June 23 EU referendum, which accelerated after the Bank of England cut interest rates on Thursday, has lowered the price of Scotch by 10 per cent or more for overseas buyers. Whisky producers in Scotland, retailers in London and online merchants say they're doing a roaring trade.
