Musings

Why would you drink fire?

Why would you drink fire?

Musings are going to be a new thing here at Scotchology. Sometimes we’ll have thoughts and experiences we’ll want to share that can’t easily be encapsulated into a whisky review. Such posts will give us space to explore in greater depth, even if they appear only a few times a year. The website will still focus primarily on our alcohol assessments, but we’ll also share some morsels like this where we step back and look at the forest for a moment instead of the trees. This initial Musing will address the important question of, well, how do you approach Scotch if you’re completely inexperienced?

World Whisky Day 2014

World Whisky Day 2014

Because some drinks deserve their own holiday. World Whisky Day was founded in 2012 by Blair Bowman, a Scottish graduate student at the University of Aberdeen and whisky enthusiast. It blew up the internet and the inaugural year had over 200 events in every continent on Earth except Antarctica by over 20,000 people. So we here at Scotchology are holding our own celebratory event: a whiskey tasting! So what are you doing?
