I'm completely and utterly exhausted and it's only halfway through term. Some unanswered emails are almost celebrating birthdays. And then a student interrupts class prep time (normally 'gaah!') to give me this. I'm not crying. No... wait... yep, I'm defo bawling. #worthit

Friday whisky time! In keeping with fall vibes, today's whisky is the @Glengoyne 18. It has no hint of peat, as the barley is dried with warm air instead. The distinctive part of this distillery just north of Glasgow is that they are wonderfully slooow (there's a lesson here) 1/n

At the behest of @alexeble , I'll get back to scotch tweeting. Today's whisky is to celebrate the start of crisper air. ๐Ÿ‚ The Aultmore 18 is one of the smoothest whiskies I've found at this age and price point. The nose is light vanilla and crisp citrus fruit. The palate is 1/n

Around this time of year is usually when I spend some time in Scotland. I am sad I don't get to go this year, so I've decided to go through my Scotch in a systematic manner. Normally I'd spend time discussing it with the distillery folk, but that's not today. So here goes:

This was a cask strength week. So today's whisky is my absolute favourite cask strength: the Aberlour A'bunadh. Every batch is different -- the one I'm drinking today is #63 , bottled at 61%. There are variations across batches, but same process so the profile is sorta similar.

We had some visitors with happy gifts, so today's whisky is the Craigellachie 17yo, cask #04 -613. This is an absolutely lovely dram, and a far cry from it's sulphuric (and honestly underwhelming) 23yo brother. The nose is immediately pear and some apple, very cider-like...

Time for Day 1 of Whisky Advent Calendar! First up, the Amhran blended Irish Whiskey from Bonders J.J. Corry. Bonders in Ireland are sort of like bottlers in the UK; they buy the barrels from distilleries and do as they please after that.

Oh lordy it is whisky time. Today I decided to pull out this @Auchentoshan we picked up at the distillery a couple of years ago. Auchentoshan is one of the few lowland distilleries, known for being light & citrusy. But they have distillery/bartender casks that change yearly 1/n

This is a gem we found a while back when we stopped at the Green Welly while driving around through the highlands. Half Mortlach (unapologetically speyside) and half Ardbeg (almost the height of peat from Islay). Weird, beautiful, satisfying. Slร inte! (more tomorrow)

It has been a minute since I've talked whisky, thanks for the nudge @SBenzell ! So today I'll share my first dram of the Arran Port Cask with you all. @Arranwhisky is distilled at the Lochranza distillery, one of only two in the amazing Isle of Arran, imho best place in Scotland!

Today at #RES2019 , I ventured into a macro session. I was ambivalent about missing a session in my field, but it was super interesting! It was great to see what colleagues in a part of econ I rarely engage with are working on. Might go rogue again in the future.

Day 2 brings us across the pond to the UK, but rather unexpectedly to England! And what a nice surprise this was. Today's whisky is Gulliver's 47, a collab btw @47Gulliver and my old next-door distillery in the Cotswolds @cotswoldistill .

Day 21 of the Whisky Advent Calendar is back to a Speyside staple: The Balvenie. This one is the 17yo DoubleWood, a more mature version of the DW 12yo. It is matured first in ex-bourbon, then in ex-sherry casks, so there is a lot of complexity to expect from it. And it delivers!

Living in Ithaca did this to me - I've started naming the many Blue Jays that show up on my porch (I'm convinced I can tell them apart). There's only one Cardinal, though.

Today's whisky is the Longrow Red. Made at Springbank, one of only 3 distilleries left in the Campbeltown region (once a spirit hotspot!). This is normally one of the more peaty expressions from this distillery, though this bottle really lacked that essence. 1/n

Day 17 of Whisky Advent Calendar is back to Scotland with an excellent entry: Glenfarclas 21yo. It is one of the few distilleries there still family owned/managed (6th gen!). The first time I tried their whiskies was on a tasting in Oxford, and I discovered I like most of them.

This morning I finally understood why Ithaca to Philly flights hold 1.5h slots for a 0.5h flight. We just moved from one de-icing bay to another bc there was "too much snow and ice" on the first one. On the bright side, California in T+9hrs!

@abhishekn I have chats set up (usually on WhatsApp) with others who attend the same series, and we use the group as a stand-in for what would usually be the lean-and-whisper comments or questions. Sometimes the thoughts end up in the Zoom chat/Q&A, but either way it keeps us all engaged!

@J_C_Suarez Iโ€™m late to this party, but I have a few thoughts. Nothing earth-shattering, just some lower bounds on what we should all be doing: [1] Make sure your keynotes, panels, speaker lists, and attendee lists are inclusive.
