Ms Whisky: September 2014
http://www.mswhisky.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Musings on my journey through the world of whisky. I've been living out of a suitcase for much of the last year, and having a good Travel Whisky has helped me feel a bit more at home. Especially for extended stays, I like being able to crack open a nice bottle with friends and kick back. The Balvenie Triple Cask 12 was my Travel Whisky of choice for my late summer trip to LA and Kansas, and it really delivered for taste and good value - the Travel Exclusive bottling is 1L!

Ms Whisky: You're going where?
http://www.mswhisky.com/2013/09/youre-going-where.html
Musings on my journey through the world of whisky. For business this week, and it was the first time I actually stayed in the city rather than passing through its airport or train station. Fortunately, I was able to get out one night for a glimpse of the city’s. And join a few colleagues at the Drake Bar and Restaurant. The pub has a cozy atmosphere with nice touches like tweed covered chairs and booths. Although the whisky menu isn't extensive it covers all of the basics, and sipping my Ardbeg. But I ra...

Ms Whisky: June 2014

Musings on my journey through the world of whisky. Whisky for Mother's Day (I know, its June! Why don’t I get cool emails like this for Mother’s Day? Rather than flowers, chocolates, and spa day advertisements, I’d much rather have my inbox filled with promos for which whiskies I could be sipping after a wild day of toddler birthday parties and chasing little people around the park. This got me thinking about what my Mother’s Day picks would be. And the first female. Lagavulin is my after-dinner “s...

Ms Whisky: A Speyside Sojourn, Part 1
http://www.mswhisky.com/2013/04/a-speyside-sojourn-part-1.html
Musings on my journey through the world of whisky. A Speyside Sojourn, Part 1. It's less than a week away - my annual trip to Scotland - with 10 friends in addition to Dr Whisky, the Whisky Sidekick and the Wee Dram. Writing the "get prepared for an amazing weekend" email got me thinking about all the things I love about that area. First things first, no trip to Speyside is complete without one (and preferably a few) distillery visits. Here are Ms Whisky's picks for tours and grounds:. Visitors experienc...

Ms Whisky: A Pressie for the Wee Dram
http://www.mswhisky.com/2013/03/a-pressie-for-little-mr-whisky.html
Musings on my journey through the world of whisky. A Pressie for the Wee Dram. Ms Whisky has been a bit mum the past few months, and that's because.Ms Whisky IS now a Mum! Now that the "Wee Dram" has joined the family, we need to add a few celebratory bottles to our collection. I'm on the hunt for two bottlings to buy now: a great 18 yo and a superb 21 yo. Why two? The little guy straddles the UK and the US, so we fully plan to celebrate both milestones with gusto. What do you recommend? Shop til you drop.

Ms Whisky: June 2012
http://www.mswhisky.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Musings on my journey through the world of whisky. When you visit distilleries, much is made of "the angel's share" - the philanthropic gift of spirit given up to other, less worldly. Spirits during the whisky's long maturation. The aging process results in evaporation, so each year sleeping in the cask causes 1.5-2% loss of volume as well as a reduction in alcohol. Filmed entirely in Scotland and featuring a whisky-related caper, Ken Loach's latest Cannes Jury-prize winning film, The Angel's Share.
