    Ah, youth. The days when I was but a Saturday-night beer drinker and a holiday Scotch drinker. Blended Scotch. Rocks. Cutty, Dewars, J&B...well brands, what the hell. Scotch was Scotch, and it fulfilled… read more

    This week I've been reviewing entry and very low level whiskies. Now I'm doing this for a couple reasons. First I needed sample bottles for a whisky swap and this seemed the only way to get some. … read more
