Recently, David Morris and I were sipping on a special glass of uisge beatha, which was a recreation of the spirits carried by Shakelton on his Antarctic expedition when we both had an idea.  Wouldn’t it be fun to do a Scotch whisky tasting?  We did a bourbon tasting last year so it seemed only natural to shift our attention to Scotland.  So, David being the resourceful person that he is came up with a plan and voila we had an event.

With a little more thinking, refinement and an ambassador or two,  we have assembled a really fine event that will be a real treat for our Club Aquarius members and our guests.  On February 23, we will be hosting Andrew Hyman, from Whyte and MacKay, who will be leading us on a tour of Scotland through our palettes.  He has promised to bring us a selection of Whisky from The Dalmore Distillery and the Jura Distillery.  To make this event even more special, we will be in the Whisky Bar of the Royal Oak Bar and Grille which is located at 3100 Westheimer.  As Ann would say, this bar is decorated in old world stuffy so it is an appropriate location for our event.

If you are in the area or plan on being here, please join us for this special event.  In order to bring enough whisky and hors d’oeuvres, we need to know you are coming.  Please email us and let us know you will be joining us on 23 February
