Tippling's Blog: April 2011
http://scotchester.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 25, 2011. My Dear Friends and Esteemed Guests,. April’s results must begin with a very wet welcome, having accumulated the most rain Rochester has ever seen in one month. No doubt you’ve probably recognized that the water from Heaven is not as good, when consumed for a prolonged period of time, as our water of life .that is, whisky. It seemed only fitting that we begin our journey at the beginning: with an A, a B, and a C. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Scotchester Home Page.

Monday, May 30, 2011. My Dear Friends and Esteemed Guests,. Rochester’s version of Summer must finally be upon us. The rain has begun to let up, the first East End Fest was just held, and an abundance of competition for our attention has begun its depreciatory effect on attendance at our tastings. I am personally looking forward to being able to spend more time shooting for birds (in either the clay or one-under par varieties). Our first whisky was the Dalmore 12 year old. Oranges, marmalade, and warm sp...

Thursday, November 24, 2011. My Dear Friends and Esteemed Guests,. In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday, I begin this month’s letter with a note of gratitude: thank you all for helping me to make some warm and wonderful memories over plentiful drams of some of the best whiskies known to mankind - each made better by the fellowship of like-minded connoisseurs and seekers of endless whisky wisdom. Life is short, be sure to embrace and celebrate it fully! First up was the Balvenie DoubleWood. Aged for 10 ye...

Thursday, November 3, 2011. My Dear Friends and Esteemed Guests,. I write this letter with great excitement, my trip to the well spring of our beloved water of life so imminent. The quick task of hanging spooky decorations, dolling out candy, and then putting away those same decorations, which has consumed my time these last few days, is now done, and I can turn my attention back to the Club. So before I run off to fair Caledonia, let’s review our October tasting. This month we focused on the Macallan.

Monday, February 21, 2011. My Dear Friends and Esteeemed Guests,. If you plan to attend. We will begin, after March’s brief reprieve, to re-score “The List” - so tragically lost in the sinking of our prior web site. On the bright side however, there has never been a better excuse to sip a dram with good friends and enlightened aficionados! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The Scotchester Home Page.

Wednesday, December 15, 2010. The reader is returned to the customary blog format with this month's entry. My Dear Friends and Esteemed Guests,. I write in hopes that you had the very best holidays, a Merry Christmas and, as they say in Scotland, a Happy Hogmanay. I myself had a very pleasant end of the year, but since fell a bit under the weather. My sense of smell has not yet returned to its proper place, and you can imagine how much this dismays me. But be of good cheer! Our final glass held Glenmoran...

Thursday, June 23, 2011. My Dear Friends and Esteemed Guests,. I must begin, as so often these days, with an apology for my tardiness in sending along this reflection of our last evening together. I rest assured however, that the recent beautiful weather and the festivities surrounding our Independence Day weekend kept you otherwise enjoined and therefore you did not overly miss my commentary. On the way down. The HP earned a 7.6; a full 1.1 points higher than its younger cousin. The Scotchester Home Page.

Saturday, January 15, 2011. My Dear Friends and Esteemed Guests,. If you will allow me the momentary indiscretion of playing on the immortal words of Robert Burns, I will sum up our January tasting by quoting "the worst laid plans of mice and men often go quite well! The consumption of alcohol, and we should therefore never be surprised if a few folks are, from time to time, affected by the potency of our beloved. Technically, they called it "hame", but I digress. Only three (Auchentoshan, Bladnoch, and ...
