I thought I had a scotch emergency on my hands yesterday. Went for a wee dram and everything in the house had been drained. After pushing around a bunch of bottles in the basement (I think the bottle of Galliano is older than the house), I finally found a bottle of 18 year Macallan - with a bottling date of 1980, so it had been hanging around for over a decade.
I went to open it and the cork disintegrated. Who loses a cork on a bottle of whiskey? So I decanted and strained it and am now drinking corked scotch.
It IS a real bitch to deal with these petty annoyances. But you're right, the scotch does help.
