Music and Mind games at #LoveScotch Pub Crawl Week 2


Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul; it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents God has given us. ~  Martin Luther

The same could just as easily be said about Scotch! Requires a specialist to make, can soothe the mind and has to definitely got to be a gift from God.  :) 

Kudos to the creative guys at USL and their associate companies to bring together a Musical Talent and a Mind reader extraordinaire for the continued advocacy of Scotch. Nakul Shenoy and Anushka Manchanda, both Scotch lovers, multi talented and extremely energetic and fun people.

 


Week 2 of the #LoveScotch campaign saw us heading to 1 of my favorite brew pubs in #Bangalore, Arbor Brewing Company but the event kick started at 1 of the new hip joints, The Permit Room.

What was really nice to see was that the patrons of the pub really get excited on seeing the #LoveScotch cocktail menu and I noticed a lot of people ordering off that and waxing eloquent about it. 

 

What they perhaps dint realize is that the cocktails were being mixed by master mixologist Andrew Qadri who is a reserve brand ambassador for USL.
I had the unique opportunity to not only interact with him but also with James Walker another master mixologist and USL brand ambassador. Needless to say, am far more enlightened and wiser about Scotch :)



Meanwhile we had Anuskha and Nakul mixing up a storm of cocktails at the bar surrounded by admirers who wanted to taste all the magic.

I also got to spend some time discussing scotch with Anushka and Nakul and had some interesting stories to hear. From Nakuls love for VAT69 to Anushkas passion for Black Label, stemming from her dad's love for it.
Extremely sweet and jovial set of people.







Was also nice of Anushka to have decided to do an impromptu gig at ABC which had the crowd get really excited.
All in all a very memorable evening thanks to USL. Made even more special with the amazing set of friends and cocktails that go hand in hand :)



I was lucky Andrew mixed a special set of Red Label Mule for me that has me in love with this cocktail, making it my all time favorite. Step aside Whisky sour.



History will confirm i have never been buzzed at 9.30 ever before, but hey there's always a FIRST  :) LOL
Looking forward to week 3 :)


Drink responsibly
