REDEMPTION and a RATING by Bill Webster
In: General
23 Aug 2010In a previous article written on 06 June 2009, I claimed disappointment in a Glenfarclas 17 yr old OB that seemed to me to not hold up to aging very well. As I remember, the whisky tasted woody, distracting from the normally high regard in which I hold the Glenfarclas distillery (my favorite speysider). I [...]

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 [...]

My Ah Ha Moment by Bill Webster
In: General
20 Mar 2010 I have been volunteering as a tax preparer here in Korea, thus thinking often and at length on why I like Scotch. The quick and the short of it is … I don’t know why, only that I do. The rest of these paragraphs is just me prattling on for a bit.
I don’t [...]

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.”
