Ardbeg Tasting Tonight
I will be heading to Martin's West a bit early tonight and helping these guys get ready for the Ardbeg onslaught! Choppers, whisky, and a good time out - all for the low price of zero dollars! Martin's might be a bit tight because the entire back room is already reserved for a private party so prepare to squeeze in!
I'm still not 100% sure what we'll be tasting, but I would expect all three of the key expressions to be on tap: the 10 year, Uigeadail, and the Corryvreckan. I wouldn't hold my breath for any Alligator. If it works like we did it last time, they have a great bar set up with all the aromatic elements available to sniff in seperate dishes to help understand the flavor ingredients. They do quite a nice job.
I'll see you all there!
Martin's West in Redwood City @ 6 PM.
