Summary: Very knowledgable host with a great understanding of the scotch drink and the industry. Answered all questions in a relaxed manner & took all the time to make it a pleasant experience. We tasted scotchs that a good crosssection and were not the ones you typically see in advertisements. Much better than going to a distillery to taste. We all enjoyed it.
