At the end of January, I received an email from the Scotch Malt Whisky Society of America (SMWSA) announcing that we would soon be receiving a small Valentine’s Day gift in the mail. As a general rule, I don’t care for Valentine’s Day, but when there’s delicious whisky […]
Back stories. Love em! Can’t get enough of em! So before I get to my review of the Italian liqueur that you see in the above photo, let me tell you a bit about how I got my grubby mitts on this sample… ______________________________________________ Way back in late […]

Burns Night is just two nights away. On Burns Night Eve (i.e. January 24th), the West Coast Office will be leading a whisky tasting with friends, and Limpd will be hosting a whisky gathering at The Barthenon with his Pappy as Guest of Honor. While it’s highly doubtful […]
