In this video, we look at the surprising history and origins of scotch whisky, where whisky is from originally, who invented whisky, when scotch whisky was invented and how Scotland became so famous around the world. In this video, we explore a timeline of events, from all the way back to the early history of Aqva Vitae with the monks and then to the recent whisky crash in the 1980s.
