The mgnitude of this honor is emphsized by the fct tht this only the 3'd time in history tht single mlt hs won. Also, Old Pulteney is the only distillery tht hs won it twice! The winner ws decided fter 4 months of tstings, nd numerous re-tstings, of more thn 1200 entries from other celebrted distilleries. And, yes, I've pplied for position on the pnel. All this ws significntto AN CANACH reders becuse the Old Pulteney distillery ws founded in 1826 by fine Scottish gentlemn (redundnt) nmed Jmes Henderson. Tht's my nme! Wht's more...the Old Pulteney distillery is locted in Wick. And, my gret-gret grndprents were mrried in Wick. Tht mens I must be direct descendnt of the Distillery's founder. Right? Oky, very likely...mybe...there's chnce. In ny event, it ws enough for me to feel n obligtion to purchse bottle ofthe wrd winner. And tht's where my troubles begn. Everyone ws buying the wrd winner. There wsn't wee- drm of it for sle nywhere. I clled liquor stores, in-stte nd out. I tried wholeslers nd impofters. I clled severl publictions nd Scotch drinking societies. I even clled the Old Pulteney Distillery (not n esy tsk, figuring out how to dil number in Scotlnd). Then, severl months lter, someone suggested I go to liquor store in Boston nd sk for Luigi. The store turned out to be n unmrked, below-ground, hole-in-the-wll. I wlked right by it three times even though I hd the ddress.

Once inside, I believe I could hve stretched out my rms nd touched both side wlls t the sme time. Two other ptrons cme in while I ws there. One bought nine nip bottles nd told the clerk he didn't need bg. The other pushed by me nd, without sying word, slpped bill down on the counter nd left when he ws hnded pint bottle in brown pper bg. Obviously regulr customers. All tht side, though, THEY HAD MY OLD PULTENEY! They even hd enough of it to keep tsting bottle hndy. Apprently, not big seller in tht neighborhood. Then, the reson becme cler. The wrd winner ws the twenty-one yer old stuffl $130 bottle! Still, there ws tht obligtion, so I bought one. I'm now on my second. Not totlly out of control, though. Known scotchdmirers get the wrd winner. My other guests get the twelve-yer-old I hd bought t the sme time. Smrt. I don't clim it's the "good stuff ' nd they wouldn't know the difference nyhow. So, end of my problems? Not hrdly. I found tht the Distillery hd other, nonjiquid items for sle. So I bought bll cp. Then there ws the pen.

The fnst chnce to meet with members of the Executive Committee nd other cln members who cme on Fridy when we gthered for lunch t Gordie Hrper's Bzr. Sturdy morning set up ws helped by the mny Hendersons who cme erly to lend hnd which ws gretly pprecited! We occupied 4 tents nd, thnk goodness, Lrry brought some plstic sheeting to hng s the wind ws blowing hrd off of beutiful Lke Ontrio just behind us. We hd stedy strem of visitors nd numerous people signed the Visitors log s well s some becoming new members or renewing. At noon, the Cln mrched out on to the field during opening ceremonies. It ws n impressive sight nd I m proud to sy tht even though the skies opened up nd the downpour begn, not one person rn for shelter or complined bout the rin. Yes, it ws n impressive sight - ll knew the Hendersons were here nd they hd dominted the field. Once the opening ceremony ws completed, most heded bck to the tents with n ttempt to dry off wee bit. With the exception of Leon Hicks nd Gry Henderson who heded over to the torch ceremony. This is where ech Cln represented lights torch, pryer is sid, nd the torch is thrown into the pit to strt the bonfire which stys lit until the festivl is over. At2 pm the nnul generl meeting commenced, nd it ws full house. There ws much to tlk bout, which cn be red in the AGM minutes. We sw the exiting of some current ledership nd the introduction ofnew ledership, nd I look forwrd to working with ll of them. Some rffles/door prizes giving out s-well-s Cln Henderson cozi's- compliments of Bruce Henderson- Thnk you. Following tht there ws the Cln wlkbout led by some members from"d" Compny Bufflo CityGurd GordonHighlnders, which included Pete Henderson on pipes nd Ginny Henderson on drums. Dy two on Sundy moming the grounds looked bit of mess, especilly the Cln Row. Gle force winds cme through nd relly mde mess of things; gin, it didn't dmpen the spirit of Cln Henderson! Things were mended quickly enough nd we were bck in business. It turned out to be much drier nd bit wfiner nd ws good opportunity to explore the festivl nd enjoy the music, food nd Celtic vendors. Tim Demler, Cln Henderson member, nd vendor of Scottishstoreonline.com ws "nmed" Cln Henderson piper. Tim plyed his pipes for the cln for the first time in his "officil" cpcity nd wee drms of whiskey were shred compliments of Mrk Henderson.
