The stories Reverend Thoma writes are never applied to the whiskies. The whiskies reveal the stories... In the process of sniffing sipping and finishing a dram the story is fetched and the whiskys heart is rendered. Sometimes the story includes Darth Vader. Another time there may be a shark named Gary or an unfortunate brawl with Santa Claus at Walmart. As it was with Volumes I and II so goes Volume III. Thoma with his signature style and creativity never fails to delight nor lose pace in his effort to enlighten and entertain.
