laphroaigThe Family Robbo is off to my brother’s house in North Carolina for the Thanksgiving hols this year.  This morning, Mrs. R asked me to stop by Total Bev on the way home and pick up some wine to take with us as a little house present.  (Any suggestion that we might be doing so in order to ensure that there is something decent to drink while we are there is, of course, utterly without foundation.)

Mulling over my task, it occured to me that my brother has had a pretty hectic year.  He and his family have only recently moved into their new digs; he’s got a boy and two girls to deal with; and he’s an Internist, one of the more thankless branches of medicine these days.  The man, in short, has been working pretty durn hard of late.  So why not do a little extra for him and also bring along a bottle of this? (Any suggestion that I might be doing so in order to ensure there is some decent single malt to drink while we are there is, of course, utterly without foundation.)
