April Meeting 4/19/2014

The April meeting at Myra's house had delicious food, interesting whiskies and no Myra. Unfortunately Myra was in the hospital with some issues and was gracious enough to let the meeting continue as planned. We all missed her. It was strange without the lady of the house of whisky.
Pertaining to club business, we unanimously voted to include a provision in our bylaws for lifetime membership in IMWC. The due for this will be $1250.00 henceforth.
Also Todd donated a bit of Bruichladdich and what was left of the pictured Ardbeg for the living cask. 

This is what I tasted that evening:

*The Six Isles Blend      43% ABV
     -smelled lightly peated - tanned leather
     -tasted light oak with slight peat and green onion/caper
     -with water smelled slight oak and floral
     -tasted very slight oaky bitter
     -trailed wood
     Water turned this sour/bitter.

*Caol Ila Stitchell Reserve Cask Strength   59.6% ABV
     -smelled sweet dessert - bubblegum/ cinnamon bun
     -tasted peppery! with dough
     -trailed wood
     -with water smelled floral, almost orange
     -tasted doughy with oak
     -trailed peppery
     -with more water - smelled slight floral/oak
     -tasted lighter peppery
     -trailed bitter wood
     I was very disappointed with this whisky. It was a lot of burn with little flavor.
