Whiskey Night

Yesterday night saw a beginning of a local whiskey club, which had been in the planning for weeks or maybe even months. Anyway, we (seven of us) managed to pull it off at Christians place. Fine conversation starting with whiskey making process and ending with, hmm, different stuff. Bits and pieces about Italian politics were quite interesting and an argument about the role of the state, which as always came down to values of different people. Strange, but somehow I really do not like to argue on this level. I feel it to be to soft ground to walk on and doesn't really contain any real answers.

Well what about whiskeys? We tried four different single malt brands: Glenlivet, Bowmore, Ardbeg and one especially made for Sainsbury. Personally I liked the second one of them, just because it was not too strong as the Ardbeg and not so "pale" as the Glenlivet. Just the right balance and just the right smoky taste, which I still can taste in my mouth if I want to picture it. Dan, the Dutch, guy said it tasked almost like bacon. Hmm, and to a certain extent I guess he was right...
