A Night In Honor Of Loch Fyne Whiskies
27 Apr 2010Saturday (24 April) the Old SNOTS gathered for another installment of single malt whisky tasting.
But this was no ordinary evening. The single malt whiskies being tasted were from distilleries the Old SNOTS had not sampled from before, partly due to the fact that they are a little more difficult to find in this part of the [...]

September Gathering
7 Aug 2009If you weren’t at the last gathering of The Old SNOTS, you missed a record-setter.

Furthermore, we inaugurated our official Old SNOTS [...]

About the Old SNOTS
SNOTS = Scotch Nosing Or Tasting SocietyA group of men and women from all walks of life and all parts of the globe who, when the situation permits, warrants or demands, succumb to the reverence of Scotland’s most distinctive product—uisghe beatha, water of life, single malt whisky—and firmly of the conviction that “Whisky may not cure the common cold, but it fails more agreeably than most other things.”
