Whiskey


Show me the way
To the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why
For if we don't find
The next whiskey bar
I tell you we must die...


I am big time sucker for whiskey (as if this is news!! :-D). I like beer too but nothing beats whiskey. That golden liquid... 3 ice cubes... in a broad whiskey class... whoa! There are very few things that can beat this! For me that is. And if the whiskey is a Single Malt... that's just like telling a child that you are not only getting a toy car for your birthday, but one with a remote. Sorry... bad analogy but nothing else struck. :-) I have nothing against Blended or Bourbon also for that matter. I am kind of impartial to any whiskey with just a slight tilt towards the Single Malts.


KK (the actor) once said - "Zindagi mein do hi anubhav shudh hain Major - Single Malt aur Shaurya" (Only two things are pure in life - Single Malt and gallantry)


Ok.. now where is this coming from all of a sudden. I was reading my own blog and felt that I have almost been under depression. (Sorry for making you guys read such depressing stuff, if anyone reads that is :-)). But yeah... felt that I have been writing too depressing. Kind of a self realization. So I thought of writing something else. And I heard this song on the radio... and instantly knew what I will write about.


So... further more to kill depression, I decided to go to the WhiskeyCafe in Amsterdam today. I will go there in the evening. That is one place I have wanted to go to since a friend told me about it. It seems they have all the rarest of rare whiskeys with them. With a passion to serve it. And I feel ashamed when I call myself a whiskey lover and have not been to this place in the 4 months that I have been here! The waiting ends now!


Here I come... pour me a drink...


Cheers!
