    Exclamation Rescheduled: Free Scotch Whisky 2/17 Westboro MA

    Rescheduled for February 17th due to impending giant snow storm prediction

    Hello Rabble,

    I would love to see some kilties come out to represent...

    I am now representing Douglas Laing Single Barrel/Malt independently bottled malts.
    So we are going to do a pre-arrival event on February 17th. At Julio's Liquors in Westboro from 7 pm to 8:30 pm. The tasting is a free event with deep discounts on the malts sampled

    Tasting list:
    Blair Athol – Highlands Distillery founded 1798 (working distillery) Aged 13 yrs – Sherry Matured – Pretty fragrant with a playful sweetness. Perfect for those looking for something outside the box.

    Glen Garioch – Highlands Distillery founded 1798 (working distillery) Aged 16 yrs – Bourbon Matured – Fruity and spiced with a hint of peat threaded in. Agreeably high grade malt that has both character and attitude.

    Benriach – SpeysideDistillery founded 1898 (working distillery) Aged 18 yrs – The malt simply melts on the taste buds, enormously sweet, yet the balance is contained by the oak, with a swift appearance of pepper and spices.

    Benrinnes – Speyside Distillery founded 1826 (working distillery) Aged 13 yrs – Bourbon Matured – A citrus element sharpens the spice from the first moment, with barley layering along with a vanilla blast at the end.

    Braeval – Speyside Distillery founded 1974 (distillery closed) Aged 18 yrs – The allure of this single malt is its simple, honest, delicate, mouth-cleansing intensity. The secret is its near perfect degree of sweetness.

    Glen Grant – Speyside Distillery founded 1840 (working distillery) Aged 31 yrs – Sherry Matured – Amazingly sweet for a sherry butt, with hints of molassed sugar amid the juicy mildly toasted raisin and a touch of spice.

    Macallan – Speyside Distillery founded 1824 (working distillery) Aged 20 yrs – An attractive honey thread weaves through the oak, softened by the barley which is yielding and mouth watering. By far, a very rich textured scotch.

    Bowmore – Islay Distillery founded 1779 (working distillery) Aged 18 yrs – A youthful aroma with dazzling multi-layered peat, offers varying degrees of intensity and sweetness, along with excellent vanilla involvement.

    Bunnahabhain – Islay Distillery founded 1881 (working distillery) Aged 12 yrs – Brilliantly evocative and very true to the distillery. Tangy fruit, then a wave of oak and crispy barley, teasingly sweet with salted vanilla.

    Laphroaig – Islay Distillery founded 1820 (working distillery) Aged 15 yrs – Black peppers explode all over the palate, leaving behind a trail of peat smoke. The controlled sweetness to the barley is sublime.

    Port Ellen – Islay Distillery founded 1825 (distillery closed) Aged 25 yrs – The immaculate balance between the peat, malt and oak hits home from the very first second. Honey, vanilla, and spice released in controlled waves.[/img]
