This Nose Knows Whisky: A Spirited Talk With Master Blender Richard Paterson .

http://www.wired.com/underwire/2010/10/whisky-master-blender/

But Paterson’s unofficial title is The Nose. A third-generation whisky man, his father, a whisky distributor, gave him his first sip at age 8. Paterson tuned pro in the early 1970s. Now in his 60s, his skill at tasting, assessing and blending whiskys has become so acute, his nose has been insured by Lloyd’s of London for $2.6 million.


I must say was honored to meet Mr. Richard Paterson a couple of years back or so in Bombay. He was very kind enough to let me taste the 60 year old malt of Whyte and Mackay.
Was truly... dont have the correct words to put it, but as I say, know whats it like flying a F-16.
