Its mid winter and that means warm fires.  What better way to warm yourself by the fire than with a smokey scotch from the Islay, land of peat.  Join us as we welcome Society Member, Josh Wozny, to join us for some manly drams here in the Speakeasy.

Its time to head back to the speakeasy as we enjoy a short pour of some of the "best juice that Buffalo Trace makes."  Named after one of the founding fathers of the industry, Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr, this single barrel offering is handpicked from Buffalo Trace’s Warehouse C, and bottled in bond to honor the great man.

He is perhaps more famously known as being one of the more active pursuers of pushing for the Bottled-In-Bond Act of 1897. This act would guarantee that American made whiskey would be at least 4 years old, aged in a bonded warehouse under US Government supervision, be the product of one distillation season from one distillery and bottled at a minimum proof of 100% (50% ABV).

Join us for a short pour as we toast the man who saved whiskey.
