That is why I gave it up ... in favor of Scotch.

“The key to long life? Many centenarians swear by Scotch as the key to their longevity, at the end of last year, the UK’s oldest woman, Grace Jones, who is 110, declared: “Whisky is very good for you. “I started having a nightly tot of it when I turned 50, so I’ve been having it every night for the last 60 years and I certainly have no intention of stopping now. “My doctor said ‘keep up with the whisky Grace, it’s good for your heart’.”

If it’s good enough for Grace ... it’s good enough for me.
