Bad Booze

The Friday File: Due to skyrocketing demand and fixed supply of bourbon, rather than raising the price, the distiller of Maker’s Mark is reducing its alcoholic content by 7%!

Boosting the price of Maker’s would require raising the price of all its bourbons and that would lose it customers.
