So you believe in being 'the real McCoy’? Do you know where the well-known phrase was originally coined? It was first used in reference to Scotch whisky smuggled into the USA during Prohibition by Captain Bill McCoy. During Prohibition, Scotch whisky could be legally obtained through a doctor, but only for ‘medical’ purposes.
