WHISKY firms are running low on malts more than 12 years old because of booming demand in the Far East.
Distilleries say they are having to market six-year-old malts to plug the gaps caused by the export surge to China and India.
The industry is also splashing out millions to expand production capacity.
The Macallan distillery in Speyside have announced a project that includes building three vast warehouses that will hold more than 100,000 barrels of whisky in their battle to keep up with demand.
Sales of whisky in China are said to have rocketed by around 75 per cent over the past two years.
In India, sales have leapt by 36 per cent.
Nick Morgan, global malts director for Diageo, who produce Oban and Cardhu said: "Everyone has supply issues, especially for whisky aged more than 12 years."
Macallan's distillery manager Alexander Tweedie added: "We can't meet demand the way we are going, especially in India and China."
The shortage of aged whiskies is said to follow a dip in the drink's popularity during the 1980s, when only 268 million litres per year were produced.
Despite this amount rising to 429 million litres per year during the early 90s, production was not increased enough to match demand.
Scotch Whisky Scotch whisky bosses say that the industry is investing to doubling its production.
Companies such as Pernod Ricard, Moet Hennessy and Diageo are spending hundreds of millions on producing their Glenlivet, Glenmorangie and Talisker malts in what the association has branded "a sea change in Scotland."

W nawiązaniu do tekstu przytoczonego przez Wiktora, jak czegoś brakuje to ceny to uwzględniają, przyszłość będzie droga. Na ten przykład nastolatka za 115 euro
