    Whiskies of the World

    I piped for a Whiskey tasting Monday night. It was a classy place to be in Melbourne, FL on a Monday night.

    The host and the piper.


    My beautifully engraved Dunfion pipes.

    Wow, those are nice pipes! Haha, maybe you and the host should've switched sporrans!

    I've got the matching sporran, actually... and jacket, shirt, bowtie. Next time I'll try to dress more like him. He's a great guy and excellent host.

    He must've been happy -- he was hosting a whisky tasting! And look at that macaroni!

    You are a lucky man, being able to play the pipes and attend whisky tasting.
