MASC – Great Fun in the Offing
April 2, 2020 @ 7:00 pm
Great Fun is in the Offing! We have 2 fine single-cask, cask-strength bottlings from The Scotch Malt Whisky Society (American Branch) and Whisky Exchange’s 10th Anniversary Port Askaig cask-strength!!! I hope that you’re available for short-notice evening of lovely spirits, lots of good food and good fellowship with a lovely group of like-minded folks. You may be familiar with Glen Grant, Glendullan and Caol Ila (that’s what Port Askaig 10-Yr is). But it’s likely that you’ve never tasted Armorik (France), Linkwood or Braeval (2 Single Malt Scotch Speysiders).
I hope that you are able to join us and to bring a friend. Why? Because “good whisky is made great when shared among friends.”
