While the wine world is comfortable with vintages, it’s rare for whisk(e)y – unless you’re talking about Glenrothes. Taste the Glenrothes 1994 with The Whisky Guy
I love snapshots. I love the idea of catching a glimpse of another time. Back to the Future Day (the day Doc and Marty go into the future – October 21, 2015) reminded me of the question – if I were able to travel in time, when would I travel to? The answer is not simple. I’d like to be reminded of what life was like before high-powered computers in our pockets and GPS. I’d like to see how people lived before color TV. Before every family had a car. Before electricity was in every home. Before airplane travel. And yes, I’d like to see what like was like at the Glenrothes distillery in 1994.
Confused about how to order a whisky at a bar? These simple tips will help!
I love the scene in Ocean’s 11 (the 2001 version) when Danny (George Cloony) sits down at the table with Tess (Julia Roberts) and orders “a whiskey, and a whiskey.” He makes 2 gestures with his hands – a ‘small’ and a ‘large.’ The scene is funny, and charming, and shows how comfortable with whisky Danny is. And if I’d been the bartender on at that bar on that night, I would have had questions. So many questions.
