EOI: Whisky Tasting

5 is good!!

As for glasses - everyone get one of these from Dan Murphys. They are less than 10 bucks.

Yeah 5 is cool with me. Ordered my whisky contribution the other day so hopefully it arrives in the next few days.

Yeah, I ordered mine online too - hopefully it rocks up in time. OTHERWISE Y’ALL GET JIM BEAM!!

Any recommendation for what I should get?

What Whisky do you enjoy? Japanese? Australian? Scottish?

I just picked something I have never tried and know very little about. I basically always drink peated Islay whisky (Laphroaig, Caol Ila etc), so getting that would have been boring.

Some suggestions

I’ve tried a little of everything, except peated whiskeys, and enjoy them all.
That NZ DoubleWood sounds good so I’ll get that.

Did some empirical research last night. Data collection was generous, and pre-analysis promising.

Your efforts are appreciated.

Thanks for taking one for the team

Next on the agenda. Food. What should we do?

Freakshakes?

I seem to remember something rather exciting from Mr Try.

Yeah I’ll roll down to planet on the Saturday afternoon and pick up a few things. Will probably also bake some soft pretzels (yes, there will be mustard).

Any specific requests are welcomes, otherwise I’ll probably just grab a few different meats, cheeses and some olives. Bread and crackers etc. No one here is legit gluten intolerant are they?

Cool matey - We will all chip in :slight_smile:

I’m intolerant of gluten-free food

Continuing on Seb’s empirical research:

As an aside - I am playing Ice Hockey at 12.30 on the Saturday if anyone wants to come down and get rowdy. GO CHIEFS!
