Rad show. Please do more with whisky

Great show! I love Highland Park, and Caul Ila (I think this is how it is spelled. Very smokey and peaty. Yum.

QOTD: I can’t get too excited about international corporations.

I’m bettin scotch is huge among wine lovers given the ability to analysze flavors and noses just like wine. Sweet show. I know nothing about Apple other than their stuff looks cool.

Get some Bruichladdich in the mix next time. It consistently rocks my world.

Whenever I raise a glass in someone’s honour, I raise nothing less than a glass of 30 year Glenfiddich.

I would be very interested to see many more Scotch tasting episodes. There are way too many wines out there for me to stay monogamist, but with Scotch – I can say, “this is what I fancy” and not feel ? I am missing out! Unlike wine, with Scotch I can be very satisfied sticking to what I like.

Try Glenmorangie [Port Wood Finish, Sherry Wood Finish and my favorite Nectar d?Or] and Macallan next time.

Lagavulin, Oban, Caol Ila are great if peat is your thing, if not, stick with the Macallan and the Dalwhinnies…

Awesome a Scotch episode…. about a month ago I went to a tasting with a rep from The Glenlivet and it was really cool. I got to taste the whole line of Glenlivet single malts and spent like 2 hours talking to the guy and asking all kinds of random questions. But anyway the main point was that rocks are always a bad idea for scotch because the cold closes down the flavor profile just like with beer or wine. Distilled room temperature water is preferred with only like 10%-20% of the volume of the Scotch, which he said opened up the flavor and after trying all of the Scotches without and then with water there was definitely a big difference especially in the cask strength which is of undetermined variable higher alcohol levels because it isn’t regulated down with water like regular strength and also isn’t filtered and a splash of water makes a HUGE difference. Also the swirling was good for the sniffy sniff to get more of the scent into the air in the glass. My favorites from the tasting were the 15 y/o french oak which has 30% stored in new french oak for 3 years before being transferred back to bourbon barrels… I thought it was awesome especially at about $50. The Nadurra which is their cask strength was very good too. I also really like the balvenie portwood.

QOTD: umm they kinda sucked when he left for a while in the 90s so nope they’ll crash when he retires… btw ipod sucks creative zen rocks it for half the price

Great show! Awesome guest and great interaction. Ive been interested in scotch and I think the next time Im out on the town I might but a drink….maybe a bottle somewhere down the line. Thank you for opening up new doors for us once again! QOTD: Im only going to say yes because it would be horrible for the economy to lose all those jobs. I personally hate Apple and refuse to use their products. I dont like how they run their products and I absolutely HATE their commercials. They make Macs look like trendy crap and youre an idiot if you dont buy it. That right there = no sale for me.

*buy a drink….. *sigh* Stupid fingers!

We need more Scotch Library TV!

Lagavulin 16year! Smoke Bomb, but smooth best smokeyness.

I love Talisker made me go and grab glass (havn’t had in like a long time) really good

Watch Matt on Mixergy with Andrew Warner today. Andrew made reference to this episode. So I search, found and enjoy!

QOD: I believe Apple will thrive long after Steve Jobs “retires” because Apple has infused it’s standards with the emotion of the people.

I’ll agree that single malt scotch is just way too expensive to drink every day. However, there is one particular brand that is very good and won’t cost you an arm and a leg: Lismore.

It’s not the best, but it’s way better than your every day drinking blended scotch. I believe it is a speyside malt and it is quite good. Not too smoky or peaty. Give it a try.

To tried the water trick with some Laphroaig and that was the first time I began to appreciate it.

If you enjoy the Peat, try the Lagavulin Distillers Edition.

Nice interesting twist on the normal wine show. Especially enjoyed seeing Matt as well. Keep up the good work.

Will apple survive? I dont know but I think microsoft is def coming up behind them with the good reviews of windows7

Where are all the bourbon and Scotch Shows. This was one of my favorite shows of all time. (drinking a bottle of wine then some Yamazaki whisky will mess you up. I would love to see some different tastings, rootbeer, whisky and even cola. Branch out, I was thinking that another person might do a good whisky tasking, but it is your style that I love. That is hard for me to say since I am kind of anti-NJ. It took me 6 months to come back and really watch your show when I saw you were such a Jets fan.

Guys, You wouldn’t nose wine in those snifters…why scotch. You need a sherry copita or a Glencairn type glass.

We don’t review wine, I wouldn’t expect you to review scotch and do it justice. The use of these glasses belies the lack of professionalism vis a vis single malt tasting and nosing.

Dude, you should have bought a Glencairn Glass from us before you tackled the whole scotch issue. Scotch enthusiasts are as serious about their beverage as wine enthusiasts are about wine. When it comes to Scotch, you HAVE to use a nosing glass. The tumblers you used are fine for mixed drinks but they’re worthless for comparing scotch.

You just don’t get the nuances in those kinds of glasses.

GR DAMN! Awesome episode.

QOTD: Apple will not survive, what happened to apple during the scully days. Come on! Unless Mr Jobs cryogenically freezes himself. That would be cool, take some stem sells, take some dna, take some sperm and if we create another steve jobs nowish maybe by the time he is really ready to retire steve jobs two will be already in the company moving his way up and will save Apple. It’s possible, probably won’t happen but its possible.

WordPress is an open source blog publishing application powered by PHP and MySQL which can also be used for content management. It has many features including a plugin architecture and a templating system.

QOTD: I think if they get someone who is like-minded when he retires, they will survive. If he goes abruptly, they will only have a short time left.

Scotch TV….can't drink it ..nasty. Guy created WordPress..looks like he just starting shaving yesterday. QOTD-has so far…http://www.winelx.com

It didn’t look like Matt had ever had a Scotch before. The faces and grimaces were pretty shocking. But a great show none the less!

It’s not the best, but it’s way better than your every day drinking blended scotch. I believe it is a speyside malt and it is quite good. Not too smoky or peaty. Give it a try.
