Tuesday Tasting Tomorrow: Glenmorangie Finealta
Make sure you come out and join us tomorrow beginning at 6 PM @ Martin's West in Redwood City. The Glenmorangie Finealta will be our featured whisky of the night and pours should be around $3 a glass. We bought two bottles this time so the liquid should last twice as long as last time. Grab a table in the back if you want to eat together and chit chat. You can sit at the bar and order a glass, taste and leave, or order some food and hang out. It's completely up to you. In all seriousness, the Finealta is a front runner to be my favorite whisky of 2011. I really, really like this slightly peated formula. We opened it for the staff yesterday, so that they could be prepared for the big email going out today, and they freaked out. Everyone was crazy about it, and honestly, they should be. It's round, elegant, balanced, and delicious. Similar to the Caol Ila Yquem barrel but with less sweetness. Come out and taste with us and see for yourself!
