@βrian: That's indeed surprising. Though I haven't tasted Laphroaig in a while. Their cask strength was so great it's hard to settle for less (so hard to get now)
Avatar 🚂 Swag For Life Member 12:33pm
Stanley:

βrian: yeah, there are many that are sweet tasting but nice if they are balanced by a bit of spice or depth of age. I've missed my whisky get togethers the last year and a half. Drinking it alone at home is only half the fun. Though I did do a society virtual tasting event and sent a tasting pack to my pal, so we could compare. The club is open again but booked out weeks ahead.

Seems like Germany just waited til it wasn't as much about Sea Power to majorly try its hand @ Militant Imperialism - or am I missing something... probly wasn't a united Republic til later either? ...& the USA learned from all the European examples & is just bigger & better @ branding is my fear... So much for Nationalism... Germany now seems notably well-directed & well-intentioned - as yer Western Industrials go I mean - is my impression...

I sent up the Greek Bat Signal for Barba Yiorgi, but I'm sure he'll check out the Archive if he misses it. He was in a really fun "Greek Gangsta Blues" outfit, Dervisi, before the pandemic, but one of the musicians was lost to COVID. He's in another local band with Dave Mandl. And of course he was in Annabouboula.
