If the slightest possibility exists that Bruichladdich distillery on Islay is a threat to world peace, we need to know. [...]

Apparently, it takes just a "tweak" in the process of making whisky and Bruichladdich could be churning out chemical weapons.

Some highland afficionados would say that an Islay distillery like Bruichladdich produces weapons of mass distruction already. But that's a different debate...
Once "outed", [the US Defence Threat Reduction Agency] were quick to point out that they do not consider Bruichladdich to be a threat to world peace.
Thank Goodness!

Coincidently, I received a bottle of "Brook Laddy" just today. Unfortunately for me, it's going to be a gift for someone else. It looks amazing tasty. Can't wait for the receiver to invite me over to consume mass quantities of the stuff.

Just makin' the world safe for democracy.
