A Taste Of The Good Life

The Scotch whisky tasting affair at Keegan's came off quite well last night, although attendance was a bit light. Perhaps people do still hold to the "don't drink brown after Memorial Day" guideline. Those who did turn out were treated to a bevy of fine Scotch whiskeys and free cigars provided by St. Croix Cigar in Hudson, Wisconsin. Prizes were also given to those able to demonstrate their knowledge of Scotch and our own Atomizer walked staggered away with a bottle of Johnny Walker Green, which retails for somewhere around sixty bones.

The crowd was jovial and engaging and seemed to grow more so as the tasting went on. A table of attractive lasses served to dispel the myth that women don't drink whisky.

After the tasting was completed, we were treated to the spectacle of Atomizer racing around the bar guzzling the leftover Scotch samples like Spaulding Smails, while Terry Keegan was attempting to collect and recycle same said Scotch. It was good to see that not a drop of the precious fluid went to waste.
