I read elsewhere that he may have taken his own life.

I'm reminded of this excerpt from Sally Van Winkle's book, "But Always Fine Bourbon", telling one of Pappy's stories about his open vats in the distillery:

"Shucks, I told one woman that the best stuff I ever made years ago got that way after a cow fell in it."

As someone who enjoys a Glenfiddich now and again, I just hope the guy wasn't holding an open fifth of Michael Flynn New Age Spirit Whiskey...
