    Father Bill, I should think that Sales and Operations would work much better together in your line of work than in these earthly realms ... Or is that what the Head Fisherman meant when He said the faithless were always looking for a sign?

    Maybe, sailortats, the good Father wants us to realize that there's not so much difference between a mountain and San Francisco!

    Nice to cross paths with you today Phil and thanks for the reminder about the event!

    I enjoyed the "breakfast" whisky and the cask strength quite a bit. Saw a few bottles head out the door, happily purchased by other tasters. Good stuff and Chris Thompson of Lark Distillery is a great ambassador for their whisky. We even had a wee bit of "tasi" to taste from Tasmania.

    How come you guys have more whisky tastings in a month than I've been aware of in the last year?

    Seriously though, sounds like it was a fun do.

    Jordan, the scottish import store here in SF also has a whisky department. They sell many top of the line whiskies. This is a promotional tool for them. The Tasmanian whisky was very good and I know several people left with bottles of it and other whiskies as well

    Aye the whisky tastings are generaly the same here. Always good to try new things though.

    Even better to get a good bottle on the cheap.
