Eric,
You should not think I am sitting around drinking 30-year-old Laphroig--too
expensive for my taste too.
But its a good story.
My wife and I were having dinner at the Parsonage in Edinburgh and struck up
a conversation with a Scottish couple. The conversation went to Scotch, and I
admitted I was not one of its admirers. After dinner they invited us into the
library to taste some Scotch. It turned out to be Laphroig [I did not know its
age], and I liked it sufficiently to buy a bottle at the airport on the way
home.
Imagine my consternation on opening and tasting the 10-year Laphroig I
bought--it had little in common with what I tasted in Edinburgh.
I am now a Scotch drinker but it is not Laphroig, but Glenmorangie [that's
another story] that is lovely only 10 years old and much cheaper.




Werner
