Kind of like my introduction to Scotch. I was moonlighting as a
bartender at a USAF officer's club and we got a new base commander. He
informed the club custodian that he liked 25 year old Laphrohaig
Scotch. Of course, when we got it stocked behind the bar, I had to try
it. Really great. Drank Laphrohaig for a number of years after that.
Just not always the 25 year old, though. LOL
