Back to work already, were does the time go!!!! It’s always hard to get back into the swing of things after a holiday. If you are one of those folks back at work already after the holiday, then I share your pain. Hopefully you all had a wonderful holiday, as I did! Before all the…

Dewar’s White Label (blended Scotch whisky)
Whether you are a Scotch whisky drinker or not, I am certain you might have seen the major advertising campaign by Dewar’s Scotch Whisky. Some of the ads are certainly in poor taste. I first tried Dewar’s a couple years ago. To refresh my memory last night I got a mini bottle to make sure…
Talisker 10-year-old
Stormy is the word that first comes to mind when I think and drink Tasliker 10. It is fitting since our forecasters are calling for a wintery mix here in New England this weekend. Since it will be blustery (a word that for some reason always reminds me of Eeyore in Winnie the Pooh, sadly)…
The Glenlivet Nadurra 16 year old Cask Strength
Back to the daily grind I go, after the holiday, feeling a few pounds heavier and somewhat broke after the sale weekend shopping. I will fight all temptations and will try to refrain from participating in Cyber Monday. If you however can’t, I wanted to give you another whisky to consider if you are looking…
Bruichladdich 19 year-old Cask Strength
It was not too long ago that I wrote about Bruichladdich Rocks; actually it was this very month on Nov-04. I wouldn’t have written so quickly about it again, however I feel it’s a must. Now that the pumpkin, sweet potato, and apple pies are done I can concentrate on this weeks post, Bruichladdich 19,…
Ardbog (From Ardbeg)
NOTE: First and foremost, thank you to all those soldiers and sailors (past and present) in the armed forces who dedicate their lives to protecting their countries. Cheers and Happy Veterans Day! A little over a week ago my boyfriend and I went out to The Last Hurrah here in Boston. It’s a spot we…
Bruichladdich Rocks
It’s the Monday morning after daylights saving time, so if you are like me, you are probably trying to adjust to the time change and are still trying to wake up from the weekend. The chilly crisp weather certainly doesn’t make it easier, but the thought of a new fresh day and week is pretty…
Ardbeg 10 year old
Let me start by saying that Ardbeg is one of my very favorite Single malt Scotch whiskies. The first time I tried Ardbeg I was in San Diego about 2 years ago attending a friend’s wedding. While out at a whisky bar I wanted to try something smoky and different, so the bartender suggested Ardbeg….
The Dalmore 12
Ah Monday’s! If you had to drag yourself out of bed this morning and are now drinking a giant cup of coffee then we are in the same boat. Monday’s are extremely difficult to get into especially after a nice weekend. To cheer you up and put a smile on your face I have these…
Auchentoshan Classic
One of the things I learned while traveling through Scotland is that some whisky distilleries purchase American bourbon casks, rum casks and even wine casks to distill their whisky in. If you really think about that, it’s a win win for both sides. How so? Well, one side makes money by selling their used up…
