 Question: What do Bon Jovi, gun-toting rednecks, angry boat skippers, turkey impersonators and over-zealous Germans have in common?
Answer: They have all been featured in one of Dominic Roskrow’s off-beat whisky tastings, so if you think tastings are pretentious and dull think again.
With Dominic on board the cruise there is never a dull moment. But do not be fooled as his passion for and  knowledge of Whisky is extraordinary so the trip will be highly educational as well as fun.
“If you think we’re obsessed with Scotch you should meet Dominic Roskrow. I am continually amazed at the stories he brings us about spectacular new releases. Roskrow is proving there has never been a better time for Scotch lovers.â€
T&L Golf Magazine, New York
