The bottleneck is inside and being paid away: internal limits on serving live demand, with removal already funded
The model's full reasoning — Q1 2017 call → NOWe need to determine if the transcript conveys the three conditions: live demand pressing in, limit is company's own capability, removal underway. The transcript discusses growth, but it's about spirits company. They mention they are investing in long-term prospects like Slane distillery, BenRiach integration. But does demand exceed capacity? No mention of capacity constraints, inability to serve customers. They talk about brand growth, but not about inability to produce enough. They have barrel sales etc. No indication of demand pressing against capacity. They have emerging markets issues, but that's demand softness. So answer NO.
