I have developed a number of new friends in Amsterdam. A number of my friends are American and have kids that attend ISA. We typically get together on Sunday evenings in the fall to watch American Football and at other various times during the year.
In early June, me and seven of my friends traveled to Scotland for a Scotch Whiskey tour. Now before this trip, I couldn't stand the taste of whiskey. But I was all-in for a three day weekend away with the boys...
Scotland is the only place in the world that distrils "Scotch" and there are many rules that dictate how the whiskey must be produced to be officially called Scotch http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotch_whisky.
Well, it turned out that a three day Scotch Whiskey immersion helped me "acquire" the taste for Scotch! We only drank single malts during our tour of six different distilleries. We learned a lot about the process to make Scotch and tasted a lot of samples!
We had such a good time that we have decided to keep getting together in Amsterdam as a means of continuing our Whiskey education.
