In looking back, it seems I have a preference for whiskies from Islay. Bunnahabhain is another one. The distillery is located in the northeast corner of the island just across a narrow strait from the mainland. Bunnahabhain, which means "mouth of the river" in Gaelic, was founded in 1883. Because of it's location, supplies and product were shipped by sea. A check of their website indicates that they distill some 19 varieties of whiskey and some are crazy expensive.
Palate: Very smooth and mild. Easy to hold on the tongue. Dense
Nose: Toffee
Color: Dark amber
Finish: Long and warming
Don't pass this one up and if you want to treat yourself, this is a good choice.

The problem is FINDING it over here... sigh How did your presentation go?
We have a big wine and spirits store here in the Big Easy. They carry a good variety of scotches.
The presentation went well. You can find it on the WW II museums Facebook page under videos and it should be uploaded to YouTube in the near future.
