Day of the Dead Distilleries – Denver Part Deux
November 1 @ 2:00 pm
Please join us in a “celebration of life” for six distilleries that have now passed on to the big warehouse in the sky. Many expressions are off the market entirely and some are rarities that are skyrocketing in value and nearly impossible to find.
We will eulogize each whisky with its history and cause of death. Please wear dark colors to solemnize the occasion. Kleenex will be provided. We are sorry for your loss.
Funeral sandwiches and snacks provided.
The Deceased
Convalmore 1984 G&M 22yr
Dallas Dhu 1978 First Cask 15yr (double pour)
Ladyburn 41yr
Littlemill 1989 Cadenhead’s 11yr
Lochside 1991 Connoisseur’s Choice 15yr
Glenugie 1982 Old Malt Cask 25r
A few club bottles may be tasted after the funeral
Darkness falls upon the land
One by one the stills go dead
Each murdered by a corporate hand
So vodka could be poured instead
They slew the ancient and the young
And let their corpses rot in mud
Yet now you wait with thirsty tongue
To taste their final golden blood
You start to feel a numbing chill
The thrill of what you shall consume
The spawn of but six hallowed stills
Await within six glassy tombs
Yet as the spirit meets its end
Your Glencairn starts to quiver
For few mere mortals dare to send
The Undead to their liver
