Come See Me in New York at Leket Whisky Night, Tuesday, November 19


Leket Israel is Israel's national food bank and largest food rescue network for the poor.

To benefit Leket, the American Friends of Leket are having a fine whisky tasting and auction on Tuesday, November 19, at the Museum of Jewish Heritage, 36 Battery Pl, New York, NY. The event will feature rare and aged spirits, gourmet kosher catering, expert whisky sommeliers, a fine whisky and spirits auction, and more.

General admission tickets are $200 each and still available. The exclusive VIP tasting, at $360 a ticket, is sold out.

I'll be there to meet and greet, and comment on the various whiskeys on offer, both for tasting and bidding. An individual supporter of the charity is donating rare whiskeys from his personal collection for the auction. Call 201-331-0070 for more information or to purchase tickets.

I hope to see you there.

Hey Chuck can you put in a bid for that Parker's first Ed for me? :)

Nice. Wish I could be there.

Chuck, don't miss the Maysville whiskey bar, 26th and Broadway. A must visit.

I like the house specialty of a shot and a can of Mamas Little Yellow Pils. I chose one of High West's whiskeys, I think a bourbon.

They have a book you can sign for people who have been to (the real) Maysville.
