about
a million
gallons,
whereas
there
is
not
a
Scotch
Hijrhlaiul
Malt
Dislillery
which
during
the
last
decadfe
has
made
more
than
a
quaiter
of
that
quantity.
The
difference
is,
that
the
best
and
most
approved
Scotch
Whisky
is
a
blend
sometimes
of
the
makes
of
twenty
distillers,
whereas
for
the
best
Irish
an
individual
dis-
tiller
is
responsible
for
his
own
make
bottled
"entire."
Blending
of
Irish
does take
place,
but
for
the
best,
one
has
to
go
to
the
distiller
direct,
unlike the
Scotch
article,
for
which
a
blender
is
from
the
nature
of
things
responsible.
