A building project by whiskey maker Jack Daniels is to be stopped in Tennessee, after a local resident said she was facing a plague of whiskey fungus caused by escaping alcohol vapours. Christi Long, of Lincoln County, Tennessee, claimed her property was coated in the fungus, which appears as a black crust on surfaces. It is a growing issue for people in the area, her lawyer told ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ News. Many residents have posted pictures online that appear to show the black fungus coating surfaces throguout the town. But it's not just a problem in Tennessee. The fungus, which consumes ethanol fumes, is known to grow on surfaces near bakeries and distilleries around the world.
