Rick Steves: The Scottish Spirit
Just for fun I thought I'd share this brief segment of Rick Steves visit to Cadenheads Whisky Shop in Edinburgh, Scotland.
"Serious connoisseurs of the Scottish spirit will want to pop into Cadenheads Whisky Shop. Founded in 1842, Cadenheads prides itself on bottling fine whisky from casks straight from the best distilleries without all the compromises that come with more profitable mass production."

This is what I do for a living! I love teaching people about whisky and giving them samples to expand their palate. His thing about "I'd know a good orchestra from a bad one" is spot on.
