    my first trip to Stone Mountain was a marvelous weekend, southern hospitality is wonderful. The first evening was the whisky tasting event sponsored by Glenfiddich. A fun evening of learning how to drink scotch ...like we need help LOL



    I think this person was asking for seconds


    five different scotches provided in fine crystal plastics cups
    Glenfiddich 12, 15 & 18 and Balvannie 12 & 17




    Luckey (Jim Rappin) following instructions from the lecturer on how to nose the whisky
