Whisky's a neat female choice
WOMEN are becoming increasingly fond of whisky, according to a new survey.
Some 35 per cent would choose whisky over any other tipple, a study by supermarket giant Asda found.
And 60 per cent saw their love affair with the drink begin after developing a taste for it when their partner kept a bottle in the house, the research found.
More than half (52 per cent) choose the connoisseur's approach of drinking it neat.
Asda spirits buyer Chris Brooks said: "It's fantastic to see a drink which in the past has been so strongly associated with men being enjoyed by an entirely new demographic."
