Greetings to our Friends, So I don’t normally get all political, and I never forward on chain letter shite and the like, especially as 3DC. You know the rule; “leave your politics at the door”, but even I have my limits. The “right honorable” British politicians are attempting to enact legislation creating the term “Blended…
Yes, it is indeed that time of year again. It is the time of year when YOU need to be getting your affairs in order and making hotel, plane, and WOW ticket reservations, NOW! (click the image for more info) Don’t wait! Order your tickets now so you don’t miss out on the fun AGAIN…
As gleaned from the BBC News: JimMurray, in his 2008 edition of his best-selling Whisky Bible, has awarded the Ardbeg 10 year the coveted top title of “World Whisky of the Year”. As the BBC News reports: <Murray> said in his guide: “To me Ardbeg is – and always has been – the most complex…
It should come as no surprise to anyone who knows a 3 Drunken Celt, that John Glaser is considered a friend of the group. Raz, Fergus, and Seamus all met John for the first time at the Whiskies of the World in 2006, where he had presented a tasting class surrounding his blends. The next…

We are very excited about this new iteration of the 3DC website and hope this redesign will inspire increased usage and contribution…
Dead, mostly… Here’s the skinny.

We don’t expect a large turn…
Hear ye, hear ye! It is upon supreme declaration, constant questioning, and unanimous decision (highly rare for this group of misfit toys) that the 3 Drunken Celts do present the “officially” official Requirements for membership. The following is to be used by all 3DC members during any induction. This way neither Raz, Fergus, nor Seamus…
Be warned, the following post is long. It encompasses all 6 days worth of our trip to Oregon as part holiday and part scouting trip for relocation areas. Keep in mind the grammatical “tense” of my writing below will change dramatically and without warning as I wrote some of it on my laptop at the…
