It's About Dram Time

I welcome myself... and you... to this new forum.

Initially, I thought this would be a good idea as I noticed my inbox becoming filled with volleys of emails: whisky questions and answers with people in the industry, debates and discussions about whisky issues with friends, whisky news updates, etc...

I have heard it said about serious wine drinkers that if they drank wine as often as they talked about the stuff, they would seldom live a sober minute.
Well, we whisky folk try very hard to do an equal amount of both.
This blog will hopefully bring about a reasonable (and a due) balance.

So here is Dr. Whisky, a prescription (hopefully) not just for me.
I hope it will be a focal point for whisky beginners, legendary professionals, like-minded barley spirit anoraks, malt maniacs, peat-freaks, whiskycasters, scotch bloggers, and 'viscimetrists' alike, while acting as a place to focus the whisky nerd tendencies of friends far and wide.

Dear Lord(of the Isles), bless this space, make it a place to fill with random crap about Blended, Single Malt, vatted malt and/or blended malt and/or whatever the SWA has decided to call the mixed product of more than one single malt without grain whisky by the time you read this.

Amen... and Slainthe!

Best of luck with the blog, Doctor! I look forward to reading about all the quality whiskies unavailable to me out here in Africa.
