I never really wrote about what I want to do with this blog and why I have it. It's probably because I don't know myself. One thing is sure, the aim is not to have a review site. And it's not a site with current whiskynews. Plenty of those blogs around and the far majority of them are very good blogs, I enjoy reading at least 50 blogs, when I have the time
And if something important happens in the world of whisky it will get mentioned a million time all over the internet.
Instead I decided that this is just a catalogue of what I happen to drink. Not a very consistent catalogue, as it's a far minority of the whiskies I drink I actual write about. Again, it's nice to be too busy dramming to actual have time to write about
But today I am going to do an exception. Here's a bit of whisky news. Tabloid maybe, but still todays news-
I simply have to pour a GLENFIDDICH, for the sole reason not to support Donald Trump. I can't recall seing anyone making a bigger fool of himself lately.
You can read a bit about it here :

So I ask everybody to join my and have a Glenfiddich today
My pour is the 15yo cask strength 51% which I wrote about last february here

My ratings arent particular consistent, ust consistent with a couple of points. That's how I am. Today I would rate this dram 84/100. At least...
Donald reminds me of an old Simon & Garfunkel song "Still crazy after all these years" :-)
