Fellow Drammers,

You’re invited to join us for this special whisky tasting, which costs 400 pesos per person (approximately $20/person). We'll be tasting a wide array of different types of whisky on Monday, and our headliners will be a couple of special French Malt whiskies. Their brand ambassador will be joining us in person to tell us all about them.

  • 2 French Malt Whiskies from Alfred Giraud - Heritage and Harmonie. We’re big fans of this French whisky company, which assembled a team of some of the most accomplished master blender’s from the cognac world to apply their blending skills to whisky. They source French single malt from a variety of the top French whisky distilleries and blend them together using traditional cognac methods.

  • Clynelish Single Malt Scotch, 10yo, Single Malts of Scotland, Jack Rose Single Barrel, 1 of 213 bottles (cask ref: 800314, d. 17.05.2011, b.13.07.2021), 60.4% abv

  • Caol Ila Single Malt Scotch, 13yo, Single Malts of Scotland, Jack Rose Single Barrel, sherry hogshead, 1 of 260 bottles, cask ref 313260, d.04.07.2008, b.14.07.2021), 59.4% abv

  • Middle West Spirits - Dark Pumpernickel Straight Rye Whiskey. Pretty sure this is the only pumpernickel rye we’ve ever had the pleasure of tasting here at Drammers Club, and it is surprisingly tasty for a 3yo whisky. Distilled in Columbus Ohio. 48% abv, batch #26.

  • Hontambere - 39yo Rare Armagnac Collection. Our friends at the Las Vegas Whisky Club selected this rare barrel of armagnac aged 39 years! Distilled in 1983 and bottled at 55.7% abv. The bold fruit notes on this one are unbelievable.

  • Copperworks Peated American Single Malt Batch #42. This past Tuesday the members of our Seattle chapter hosted an event at the Copperworks Distillery, where among other things, we had a chance to taste this whisky - a single malt whisky made like a Scotch, but made in the US (thus “American Single Malt”). Turns out this is the first American single malt that uses peat from the USA (just about everyone in the whisky world sources their peated malt from Scotland). And it turns out the US peat tastes very different, much milder, at least in this expression.

We hope you can join us!

Cheers,
Charlie, Alex and Drammers Club
