General

I was at a meeting the 0ther day with a scotch tasting.

I promised I would comment on Red Breast 12 Year Old Cask Strength.  My first comment, this is my new favorite whiskey!

It was that time.  Time to clean out my whisky cabinets.  Yes plural, I have two cabinets.  I have a fireplace in my family room and a 3 shelf cabinet on each side.  On one side is my”drinking whisky”. The other side is my collectibles and “top shelf.”  

The River City Whisky Society met April 21st

I purchased a bottle of Aberfeldy 12 year Highland last Sunday.

It’s amazing how the focus of most whisky drinkers is concentrated on Scotch, Bourbon or Irish whisky.

Tonight, 2/10/2012, RCWS is trying 5 single malts from around the world.  We will try Penderyn from Wales, Hakushu from Japan, Belgian Owl from Belgium, Amrut from India and Balcones from Texas.  I know, Texas isn’t a country, but try telling them that.  Stay tuned, we’ll have the results in a couple of day.

This whiskey is 100 proof,  10year old,  Kentucky Straight Bourbon

RCWS had their 2nd annual Christmas Party and it was another success.

October 22 was our last tasting and, as usual, it was a great time.
