Dear Kim, Am over in Europe on tour and did stop by Edinburgh... So. When you are next in New York, you have a dram of Linkwood or Ardbeg, 16 year Cask Strength in your future. Both of which you cannot get in the states. And though Lagavulin and Highland Park are both faves of mine as well, Ardbeg comes from a place just a little higher on the globe and therefore even a little peatier and smoky. In any case, I owe you for the many years of good service anyway... Todd Chris, good move, this moved us right into the scotch looping conversation. Which is always good... T.
