              We were graciously invited to Cindy and Doug’s house for our end of year party. Their home is a combination of gallery, cozy living space, historical design and cool place to hang out. The food was excellent once again thanks to everyone who prepared and cooked, including the cook yourself Korean BBQ thing that Todd brought. The soup was amazing Cindy! I had two bowls myself.
              Our gathering is never complete without the “Water of Life. “ Todd gathered a few, as usual, and we did taste a few, as usual. Here is what I tasted:
Picture
​*Edradour Natural Cask Strength 15yr 56.1% ABV
              -smelled raisin bread/fruit cake (I don’t mean the kind that come into the Arlington store either)
              -tasted peppery fruit, cherry
              -with water smelled light cherry
              -tasted bitter pepper
              -trailed quickly!
              No water next time. Todd brought this one so we could open it!

Picture
​*Glen Moray 15 yr 40% ABV
              -smelled light and doughy, fruity sweetness
              -tasted peppery grapes
              -with water smelled very light floral, caramel
              -tasted oak with no bitter, not very sweet
              Water took away the sweetness in this whisky.

Picture
​*St Augustine Port Finished Bourbon 51% ABV
              -smelled bourbon, sweet leather
              -tasted peppery oak with candy
              -with water smelled sweet oak
              -tasted slightly sour oak
              -trails oak
              Water removed any sweetness.
