Scotland - Day 2

Tuesday at Drummuir Castle we had a presentation of the haggis (traditional Scottish dish - a kind of sausage or savoury pudding cooked in a casing of sheep's intestine!) followed by a poem read from Robert Burns 1759-1796. Photos to come....

• Haggis, Neeps and Tatties

• Smoked salmon salad

• Roast Loin of Venison with green beans, roast squash and red wine sauce

• Poached peach with honey parfait and raspberries

Whisky and Wine:

• Talisker 10 year

• Macon Uchizy 2009 Domaine Talmard (white)

Scotch Tasting in Scotland - Day 1

Owners Bill and Patty have flown off to Scotland to hand-select some of the best scotches for the store.

They arrived on Monday, where they settled into Drummuir Castle (pictured). They went for a walk around the property and then headed back for a fabulous dinner in the castle's dining hall.

Check out the picture of the library in the castle. It's filled with an array of scotch from every area, including distilleries that have been closed or cannot be sold in the U.S.
