I just turned 59 Years old.
I was turned off by Scotch Whisky at an early age of about 20.
I was invited into a customers home and he offered me a scotch and water.
This was my 1st and last drink of Scotch
What he gave me was a Johnny Walker red in a tall glass filled with ice and water.
I did drink it as I am a somewhat polite type.
That drink tasted like crap.
A new friend a few years back reintroduced me to Single malts.
I now have injoyed many Scotch Whisky's such as
Laphrog
Lagvulin
Ardbeg
You see where this list is going. I am all over the Islay Whiskey's
I have also tried some other regions.
Recently purchased 6 bottles of Belvenie Tun 1404 Batch 6.
I was told that none of this was allocated to minnesota by one store ownwer?
Don't know if that is true but I see that the LAWS and others had a love afair with it.
Maybe someone here knows?
