One of the Old SNOTS (thanks, Gary) recently discovered that there’s another single malt whisky aficionado group on the Missouri side of the Mississippi River. The call themselves The BUMS (Bureau of Malt Sippers) and their website is at http://www.scotch-tasting-bums.com/Welcome.html. Take the time to check out their website and drop them a line with your choice of malts. It’s rather nice to know we have kindred spirits (so to speak) nearby.
To The BUMS . . . Slainte!
A 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.”

hmmph…I sampled it…thought it had a rather pointy nose, with a robust, upward thrust; a slightly brittle bouquet and, it’s finish fell flat, like an aging socialite out too late with the youngsters.
*…hope it’s not too obvious that I was vexed to find they’d omitted these lovely comment boxes.*

Maybe if they’re reading this they’ll see just what they’re missing by not having comment boxes. Then again . . .
I’m certainly glad we have them, though. How else would we have the pleasure of your company?

Thank you . . . I absolutely treasure my ‘Virtual Virgin’ status with the Old Snots!
