Orvis whisky tasting

[DWFII]

I think your outfit looks good -- great mustache, too!

(and yum! Laphroaig!)

Cynthia,

Thank you indeed. I agree whole heartedly about the Laphroaig. Especially the 15. I like Lagavullin and Talsiker and so forth but never could get comfortable with Laphroaig until I stepped up to the 15. It's like two different malts.

Thanks for the salute to the mustache, as well. I've had some form of facial hair for over 40 years. I don't think I'd recognize myself without it. Once upon a time I had a handlebar that stuck out a good five or six inches on either side of my face. As I got older and the grey replaced the brown, the hair got "funny" and much harder to control...and that wasn't funny. You've never had a "bad hair day" until you've had one right under your nose.

Another vote for motorcycle jackets and kilts here.

I personally think that the short waisted jackets work well with kilts.

For me, I always wear black leather accessories with mine (and more modern sporran) but overall your outfit works.


I'm still working my way up to the Islay style whiskies. I just filled my flask with Glenfiddich 15 for a party later tonight.

Sounds like it was a fun evening!

Cheers

Yet another vote for the black motorcycle jacket. I think the classic offset zipper style goes very well with a kilt. I wear mine often (especially since I mostly wear textile jackets while riding now).

Compliments on the 'stache too. I miss my handlebars.

[Highlander31]

Yup,...the jacket works.

From another Talisker fan, you look pretty sharp to me. In the true Scots way, you found the kit to do the job, which may not necessarily be quite right, but it does the job nevertheless. Well done!

"All the way" From the home of Harley Davidson, I think the bike jacket looks great with the kilt.

[GMan]

I really do like the tastings, regardless of what type of jacket is worn.

Kilt AND Whisky. What more could a man ask for? Great Thread. Happy New Year Sir.

Wait, kilts, whisky and fly fishing....it can't get any better than that.

I have an Orvis not to far from me....is it a store thing? How did scotch get mixed in that?

I need to know! I might be missing something!

I don't think it at all fair that you have an Orvis on the east side, and we don't. Grrrr.
