Title for The Whisky: The Whisky

Proprietor Harvey Burkin and Manager Bryan Baxter are opening the doors for an evening of good spirits and tasty cigar pairings. May I suggest that you grab a friend(s) and head over to Maxwell’s Cigar Bar? It’s conveniently located on Towne Lake Pkwy, just ¼ mile north of Main St. Woodstock.

This will be good fun! Our whisky is breaking out of the lock down, so let’s help it escape. The Glenlivet’s 12-year-old is a delightful aperitif-style dram. Hailing from western Speyside, Benromach wood finish is an 8-year beauty finished for 28-months in Sassicaia cask. Ainsley Brae is actually Royal Brackla 12-year, a fine rich dram from Total Wine. Billy Walker’s GlenAllachie distillery has been winning most of the major awards the past 2 years… you will discover the reason when you taste his 12-year single malt. Ardbeg Drum is a 52% ABV bourbon cask matured and rum cask finished special release by The Ardbeg Committee whereas our final dram is the famed Smokehead High Voltage 58% ABV which is from a non-disclosed Islay distillery. We hope to see you at Maxwell’s Cigar Bar in Woodstock… and do bring a friend as “good whisky is made great when shared among friends.” Sláinte!
