Tommy convinces his Irish son law that Scotch single malt whisky is the true Uisge Beatha, (aqua vitae.)
As we gathered on the upper deck at the lake house, Tommy expounded on the virtues of Scotch single malt whisky. Patty O'D no stranger to booze, was skeptical until Tommy uncorked a Glenmorangie Original 10 year old, 40 vol. with an antique gold color, floral, fruity, butterscotch and toffee nose, a nutty oranges and lemons taste, and a spicy finish. This was a crowd pleaser. Patty was sold on, but did not offer to buy more of this single malt! Slainte, Tommy Maaltman

Patty agrees on two accounts but differs on one. Patty is definitely no stranger to booze and the Glenmorangie Original was a pleasant surprise to his palate; the butterscotch nose sold him at first sniff. Where Tommy Maaltman has it wrong is that the next bottle will be courtesy of his son-in-law.
