St. Augustine, FL (PRWEB) March 12, 2006

March in the Jacksonville area signifies one thing…The PGA Golf Tournament, but golfers have other interests as well, including the education about and consumption of the finest scotches in the World.

This has prompted The First Tee - A PGA Charitable Organization along with the Commissioner of Golf in conjunction with The Golf Channel to arrange for The First Annual “First Tee Scotch Experience” Charity Event, March 21, 2006, featuring Scotch Specialist Signatory, with Single Malt Scotch offerings from all parts of Scotland including rare offerings such as: 1994 Edradour, 1992 Highland Park, 1991 Rosebank, 1990 MacCallan, 1989 Glen Rothes, 1989 Caol Ila.

The event is slated in the oldest city in North America, at the Historic Casa Monica Hotel in downtown St. Augustine Florida. PGA and LPGA Golf greats, NFL players, television and film celebrities and Scotch connoisseurs will all gather for a rare example of fine single malt, single cask scotch offerings. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy the history and unique insight of the distilling of Scotch along with tasting notes for each of these fine offerings from renowned Scottish Scholar Byron Cassell.

Attendance is limited to two hundred, and tickets are first come, first served. Other sponsors of the event include SanMar Art Publishing, who will be featuring Golf and Scottish related art at the event.

Internationally recognized artist McKenzie has created a special painting called "It's Never Too Early To Learn" in honor of the PGA’s work with mentoring children. Commemorative limited edition posters of this painting will be available for sale at the event. The Liquor Group is presenting each of these fine Scotches from their portfolio of more than 250 Single Malt Scotch Distillery offerings, including specialty scotches from all major distilleries in Scotland.
