For those of you who found your way to my blog from my “The New Era in Whiskey” piece in today’s (Friday’s) Wall Street Journal, let me extend a warm welcome to you!

We are all friends here with one thing in common: a passion for whisky (and whiskey). I hope you find my blog informative and entertaining.

I would also like to invite you to get involved in our lively discussions here. There are no wrong answers.

Check back daily, because I usually post at least once daily. Better yet, put me on your RSS feed (if you are familiar with that).

And for my WDJK friends who haven’t seen my piece in today’s Wall Street Journal, try to find a copy on your local newsstand. In addition to my pieces (Whisky 101, Appreciating Whisky, and Whisky Trends), there’s also a great whisky cocktail article by master mixologist Gary Regan.
