Here's the line up

Auchroisk 1992, 14 yr, finsihed in Syrah casks, bottled by Murray McDavid
Glen Grant 25 yr, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail
Highland Park 1989, 16 yr, finished in port casks, bottled by Murray McDavid
Coal Ila 1984, 18 yr, bottled by First Cask
Bowmore 17 yr, distillery bottled
Port Ellen 1982, 24 yr, bottled by Dewar Rattray

Should be a good time. Too bad it will be raining here and we won't get a chance to light up a stick.

I'll post pics and comment of the event next week.

Does anyone have any Scotch tasting stories to share?
What, no smoking inside? Who is calling the shots over there?

Sounds like a great line up. I hope no one is driving home...

My only worthy Scotch tasting story is that a friend of mine says he has a good palette could tell the difference in the Scotch he owns. I served him one Scotch, he guessed and was wrong. I served him the say Scotch again and guess something totally different and was wrong again... We were all laughing at him!
