Heading to WhiskyFest tonight (see: http://www.maltadvocate.com/whiskeyfest-ny-whlist.asp), and seeking some suggestions on what people would try. It’s not the first time I’ve been, and I have a few ideas about...

Location: Mid-City to Silverlake I have a friend visiing from NYC and we’re going to have dinner next week. She wants a "fun & reasonably priced place" and I’m watching what I eat — need a place that I can have...

://treasureisland.com/pages/ent_mystere.asp There’s a great Irish Pub in NYNY (also on the Strip) called Nine Fine Irishmen. We had a blast drinking good beers and whiskies and dancing to the tradition Irish music. The staff...

is different. Their Mission series, in particular, includes some great old whiskies that would be fun to try. There are a few interesting things to note about Murray McDavid. One is that they own the Bruichladdich distillery, so...

For any whisky fans out there, there’s a great "Whiskies of the World" in San Francisco in March and in LA in November. It’s not cheap ($85) but if you enjoy distilled spirits, especially single malt scotch and single...

There are a couple of ways to approach your problem, and which one might work best can be determined by knowing which single malts you prefer. The first approach is to drink the blend that has as its basis whisky the malt you...

A nice bottle of aged balsamic or a high-end olive oil? Or maybe go silly with fun gifts like Whiskie? http://www.famousfoods.com/wheggwh.html Whiskie comes in other fun little gifties: http://www.famousfoods.com/egggadgets.html

I agree with you 100%. Part of what CH is all about is learning new things, have discussions, correct misinformation, etc. Oh, and have fun talking about the best subjects in the world. Food and Beverages.

Looking for a few bars in the CBD. I’ve heard about Loa and Whisky Bar but someone mentioned another cool place in the same area but didn’t recall the nname. Thanks

some Red Breast, if you have not otherwise had it. There will also be a number of others, not Scotch, bourbon, rye, etc. that are whiskeys or whiskys. But the Scotch, the Scotch will be there in abundance. General rule: check out...

I’ve been fooling around with tails lately and have made a few fun discoveries. I like whiskey tails so I’ve been making the classics and substituting different whiskies that I think will work well. 1. Rye goes well in...

There is a good whisky shop in Covent Garden (of all places). I think it’s on Russell St.

the RER from Gare du Nord late afternoon. Other plans involve gorging ourselves on sweets at Pierre Herme, which should be good fun. In case it helps, the bottle that would be the best prize would be some of the Elixir Vegetal de...

In terms of tapitas in the Santa Cruz/Catedral/Alfalfa, here are my favorites. Regardless, make sure you get the solomillo al whisky somewhere: Las Columnas (Santa Cruz)- usually packed and a favorite with tourists and locals!...
