So Kottke found some old whisky at his wife's grandparents' place. I'm loving the bottle and the font. It's probably not good to drink anymore, though...
For 10 days, Director of Malts (awesome title) Ken Grier will traveling with photographer legend Albert Watson, taking pictures, conducting interviews, and exploring. Sounds like a great gig to me!
What better way to start off a blog about Scotch whiskies than to write about our first impressions of some of our favorites? These notes are from a Scotch tasting party we threw a while back. It was fairly simple: we made meat, we asked people to bring individual bottles, and we drank. And drank.
This is a new bar opening in our neck of the woods in Silver Lake. The Thirsty Crow is whisky and bourbon-centric, meaning that there will be no pansy ass vodka cocktails. Check out the menu, which includes a good selection of whiskies from the Highlands and Islay, and even a few Johnny Walkers.
This blog is dedicated to the world of Japanese single malts. We tried one once, I think it was a Yamazaki 10 year, and were a little underwhelmed. Course, the world of single malts, even in Japan, is bigger than a single batch. Looking forward to trying more!
