Three Louisville distillers are the targets of a federal class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of residents who say the vapors from aging whiskey - the “angel’s share” - are covering their homes and cars with black spots.

The defendants, Diageo Americas Supply Inc., Brown-Forman Corp. and Heaven Hill Distilleries, say the blackening is due to a “naturally occurring common mold” and say they will contest the claims. Read more about the suit in The Courier-Journal, here.
