A great deal of whisky was lost due to evaporation :-)

Evaporation, that was the reserve of the professionals but imagine if you can a young and handsome electrician working diligently alongside the whisky filling bay, hoses were swung about with abandon, I should reckon 5% was spilt onto the tarmacadem drive.
A young and handsome electrician wouldn't be worth his salt if he didn't sook up, siphon this watery spillage into his thermos. Green/yellow sleeving made an ideal siphon tube.
