Advantages: Smooth so very smooth. Nice Flavour. Hint of Smokiness Disadvantages: Pricey. Not that widely available.
The biggest selling single malt whisky in its native Scotland happens to be Glenmorangie, 10 year old and this is one of the finest whiskies that I have ever drunk. The distillery is at Tain, Ross-Shire ,far in the North of Scotland, and the elegant swan neck of the distillery still is apparently the tallest to be found in the Highlands.
Visitors are very welcome to visit the distillery and Glenmorangie, which was founded in 1843 and now owned by Leith-based Macdonald and Muir ,also have their very own web site. Initially its business was very localized -selling single casks to pubs and hotels in the area between Inverness and Dornoch.Indeed it actually started as a brewery and was later converted into a distillery.
Glenmorangie is the Gaelic for "...vale of tranquility...." and this wonderful whisky is matured in American ...
Advantages: Open all year, excellent course, not too expensive Disadvantages: That north wind!!
Tain golf course, I believe, is a hidden jewel in the North of Scotland, often overlooked for Royal Dornoch which is a near neighbour.
Tain overlooks the Dornoch Firth in a beautiful setting in the highlands with a backdrop of mountains on one side and the sea on the other, ideal for a round of golf on a beautifully kept, very challenging links course. It is only 35 miles from Inverness, making it very accessible to visitors and there are numerous hotels and guest houses in the area including some top class hotels.
The course itself is a Tom Morris design, built in 1890 - 6404 yards long (SSS 70 mens medals, 73 for women) with some very interesting and some very difficult holes. It is a challenge to all standards of golfer. Its sheltered location below the town of Tain ensures a decent amount of shelter from the elements all ...

Album Notes
Personnel: Jeff "Tain" Watts (vibraphone, drums, percussion); Roderick Ward, Rob Hunter (vocals); Branford Marsalis (soprano & tenor saxophones); Kenny Garrett (alto saxophone); Wynton Marsalis (trumpet); Delfeayo Marsalis (trombone); Kenny Kirkland (piano); Reginald Veal, Eric Revis (bass). Recorded at Systems Two, Brooklyn, New York from June 1-3, 1998 and at the Tarrytown Music Hall, Tarrytown, New York on August 12, 1998. Includes liner notes by Jeff "Tain" Watts. The powerful Jeff "Tain" Watts is unleashed on CITIZEN TAIN, an uncompromisingly solid effort by the legendary jazz drummer. Long the sideman for high-profile artists with names like Marsalis, Garrett or Kirkland, here Watts offers his own point of view with bold ventures that prove him an enterprising leader. In his company are none other than the previously mentioned former employers--Branford, Wynton and Delfeayo Marsalis all make hefty contributions, as does saxophonist Kenny Garret and the late pianist Kenny Kirkland. Watts' assertive, driving torrents propel the exciting opener "The Impaler" with relentless fire. The dynamic "Attainment" opens with a free drum solo that captures Watts at his expressive best. Kirkland is featured prominently throughout, especially on two trio cuts, the intricate swinger "Muphkin Man" and the graceful "Pools Of Amber." Watts' centerpiece is the two-part "Destruction And Rebirth Suite," which opens with gripping percussion followed by a flowing part featuring Branford Marsalis's exquisite soprano saxophone. The grand finale is "Blutain's Big Adventure," a glorious swinging enterprise that features the entire cast in one big blowout.
Album Reviews
CMJ (1/10/00, p.24) - Included in CMJ's "Jazz '99 Top 5" - "...a monster of a straight-ahead jazz recording....Watts swings hard and finds unexplored places deep in the heart of the jazz tradition." Entertainment Weekly (8/20-27/99, p.129) - "...a set that manages to be mainstream with liberating twists....TAIN still possesses heat, nuance, maturity, and a bounty of ideas." - Rating: B+
