For me it extends the well-kept lawn of the impressive Philips stadium. In my leather chair, I look around me, and note with satisfaction that this place offers a beautiful view. With a glass of whiskey and a smoldering cigar in hand is to enjoy the whiskey festival where I work with Bowie and Stefan visit brought.

Surrounded by the trophies and accolades over the years PSV had won, we were able to visit various booths for a glass of whiskey. The exhibitors told all about the unique process by which their whiskey was brewed. Each whiskey was evident again something unique to have the flavor was influenced and exclusivity is guaranteed. We tasted include the Bowmore, Aberlour, King of Scots and Glenmorangie.

The party was particularly a Scottish affair. Outside the stadium, we were also greeted by a bagpiper in full regalia and a striking number of festival-goers had their Scottish kilt out of the closet and pulled unceremoniously walked it around.

There were very rare whiskeys to drink. There was a brewery where vessels are leased out to private individuals. Each barrel forms a unique whiskey which is rightly called 'single barrel' can be called. There were several of these exclusive bottles and of course we could not let one of them to taste: a strong (60% alcoholic!) Of whiskey 22 years old. The expert told us that a good whiskey to be flavored with a few drops of water. What was not a luxury with this type of alcohol percentages.

Besides the Scottish violence we could even sip some exotic varieties, including a Japanese whiskey called Karuizawa (not recommended) and even a Dutch brewery that advertised a "Dutch Single Malt whiskey, called Millstone. The Millstone tasted decent, but the young age of the whiskey (5 years) did affect adulthood. Even a few years down the ripening than a success.

Since we had already started at 13:30 with the first to bring alcohol in our blood, except it was a successful afternoon also quite heavy for the frame. Although I usually have to poke am for a glass of whiskey, is middle of the day yet another story. Fortunately, we could in the city of Eindhoven in the Movies after a little cafe eating a tasty kebab, so again a bottom for the return to explain. Otherwise, I was driven to sleep in the train.

    I hope that the whiskey was as tasteless as the game of PSV? :) The piece appears not, and the pictures are nice.
