A long while ago, G-LO received some boozemail. While he works the corners of the whisky world like … well, like someone working a street corner, he is able to score samples from time to time. Fortunately, he shares his samples and passed along this bottle from Single […]
Chapter 1 – The Package It was an unusually cold April evening. G-LO decided to work a bit later than usual. The wife and kids were out of town. The office…a veritable ghost town thanks to Spring Break, Passover, and Easter falling on the same week. If ever […]
Several years ago, when we first started up this here blog, we were having issues with any whisky that came from a distillery whose name began with the letter “T”. If my memory serves me correctly, I believe it was a Tamdhu (we called it “Tam-don’t”) and a […]
Buckle up, Boys and Girls! G-LO and I are taking you on a rip roaring, pedal to the metal road trip through the Rocky Mountains and Big Sky country! Our journey begins in Bozeman, MT where we sample some RoughStock Montana Pure Malt Whisky. Our second stop will […]
On February 25th, 9:48pm. G-LO and Aaron text each other: G-LO: Someone must be having fun. Or she was abducted by Scotsmen! AK: Fell into a big spit jug somewhere? Partying at St Patrick’s? * * Aaron meant to say St. Andrews. Give the guy a break, he’s Jewish […]

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 […]
Glenlivet. Glenfiddich. Glen Grant. Glenfarclas. Glengoyne. Glenmorangie. Glenrothes. Glen Campbell. Scott Glenn. Glengarry Glen Ross (a double Glen!). There are other Glens out there. So so many Glens. This of course begs the question: Will any Glen do? It might if you’re Jon Favreau in Swingers… But not […]
If the usage of the singular verb tense with a plural subject bothered you…good! I like you already. But guess what? It’s not incorrect because we’re talking about Four Roses Bourbon. And cheese. Not grammar. Clearly. Because as you’ll see, I’m fond of sentence fragments. But back to […]
