Earlier this week, I received an advertisement from Master of Malt. Apparently, the folks at Gordon and MacPhail have released a 60 year old Glen Grant to commemorate Queen Elizabeth II’s Diamond Jubilee. For the low, low price of £7,995 (roughly $12,710), you can purchase a 70cl bottle that […]
As most of you are well aware, we are big fans of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society of America, and have attended the last five Fall Extravaganza events in Philadelphia. Two days ago, I received an email from the Society announcing their Spring 2012 events lineup. Below is […]
