    Re: Whisky Fest in NYC

    This was one great event. Over 330 distilleries from all over the world had their products available to sample. Since it would be foolish if not fatal to try all 330, I decided to settle on 10. Once there I found that each distillery had 6 or 7 different selections to try out. I indeed had a mans work ahead of me. Fortunately they also had a very nice buffet for all the attendees and plenty of water handy. After visiting my first 4 distilleries, I stopped to eat and had a large glass of water. I would do this after every 4 distilleries I visited. This process worked very well along with some extra water intake, and I was able to avoid intoxication. In fact I noticed that no one there was really intoxicated. Kilts were everywhere. There had to be at least 12 to 14 gentlemen in kilts besides myself. 5 or 6 were connected to some of the distilleries while the others were, like myself, attendees. All looked splendid and a good time was had by all. I even got a free flask from Dewars.
