Story Of The Kavalan Whisky Affair – A Frisky Business

Sammy’s Realization

The Story Of The Kavalan Whisky Affair – Sammy had never seriously pondered the meaning of love before. Having seen many of her friends fall in love, she believed that when the heart is involved, everything that comes out of one’s mouth sounds foolish. Her best friend, Ian, was droning on about his new love, Freddy, but she wasn’t listening. She had a project to work on and needed to research this new country, Taiwan. Sammy had never been outside the state of Georgia, but her boss insisted she meet Mr. Richard Blocke in Taiwan, China.

Richard Blocke’s Success

Richard Blocke was an ex-pat living in Taipei who had built a career by establishing the production of Kavalan whisky in Taiwan. Many laughed at his decision to undertake this monumental project in 2005, but no one was laughing anymore after they released their first batch in 2008. With warmer temperatures, the distilling process only takes three years instead of seven or more. Despite the greater loss of the ‘angel’s share,’ by 2012, the Kavalan distillery was awarded the Best New Whisky in the World award and by 2015 was recognized as one of the best whiskies globally, winning multiple awards each year.

Richard’s Influence

Richard’s success made him not only a respected and influential man in Taiwan but also one of affluence. His dedication and vision turned Kavalan into a global brand, earning accolades and admiration from whisky enthusiasts worldwide. Sammy’s upcoming meeting with such a prominent figure added a layer of excitement to her project, making her eager to embark on this new adventure.

Sammy’s Striking Appearance

Sammy wore a white suit pant that accentuated her straight dark hair. She was tall, even for a Westerner, at 5 feet 11 inches with legs often described as endless. Having been a sprinter in her college years, she was toned with no excess body fat. As the offspring of an Irish father and African American mother, her skin color was a light chocolate. What made her stand out were her piercing sky-blue eyes, reminiscent of a sunny hot day, often glowing and drawing awe from many.

Arrival and Customs

Clearing customs did not take as long as expected, but her bags arriving on the baggage carousel seemed to take forever. She exited the departure door at 5 p.m. and was relieved to see that the driver the company had hired was still there, holding up her name on a placard.

Meeting the Driver

She walked over to the driver, towering over him. Dressed in a black suit and white shirt, he greeted her. “Hi, I am Samantha Livingstone,” she said.

“Ah, yes, Miss Samantha. You come with me. So sorry, I think maybe you missed your flight.”

“Sorry, my baggage was delayed,” she replied, following him to the limousine waiting area.

The Journey to the Hotel

The driver opened the door for her, and she sat inside while he placed her bags in the trunk. The limo drove off, and she settled in the back seat, taking in all the new sights and sounds. This visit promised to be a lavish and cultural experience, serving to take her mind away from her lustful thoughts, and time seemed to slip into a cocoon. A heavy downpour started, and traffic slowed to a standstill as she continued to stare out the window.

Arrival at the Mandarin Oriental

Even in the rain, the streets teemed with people, all speaking a language unfamiliar to her. She felt a bit overwhelmed as they arrived at the Mandarin Oriental. Purposefully, she walked to reception while her driver took her bags to the porter and checked in. She was pleasantly surprised to find her room had been upgraded to a suite. The porter escorted her to her room, and she was amazed at its lavishness.

A Lavish Surprise

Having read about hotels in Taipei, many Westerners booked into what locals considered luxury hotels only to find them small and dingy. But this was luxurious and spacious, even by Western standards. As she tipped the porter, she noticed a bottle of red wine standing uncorked on the hallway table with a card. Picking up the card, it read:

“Welcome to Taiwan, Sammy. Have a drink on me to settle down. I look forward to discussing business with you and finally meeting my cyber love.”

Settling In

She found his gesture thoughtful as butterflies fluttered in her stomach. She picked up the bottle, recognizing it as premium without even checking the brand, and gladly poured herself a tall glass as she sat on the lounge. The room was hot, so she turned up the air conditioning and put her feet up on the table. She took a sip…

The Phone Call

BZZZZZZ…. BZZZZZZZ…. BZZZZZZZ…

She awoke with a start and picked up the phone, “Hello, Yes?”

A female operator said, “Miss Livingstone, Mr. Richard is waiting for you.”

She looked at her watch. It was 8:05 p.m. She must have dozed off. “Please tell Mr. Richard that I am so sorry. I must have dozed off. I will meet him in the Jade Lounge at 8:30 p.m. We had made reservations to eat there. Again, please tell him I am so sorry. I will be down as quick as I can.”

A Quick Refresh

As she hung up the phone, she stripped off her pant suit, racing to the shower. By the time she reached the bathroom door, she had undone her bra, revealing firm 34B breasts with perky chocolate nipples. She half-hopped out of her pants, revealing firm, taut buttocks with silky smooth skin. Within 60 seconds of receiving the phone call, she was enjoying a refreshing but very hot shower.

Sensual Shower

As she washed, she paid special attention to clean between her legs. The thought of Richard sitting downstairs waiting for her while she lathered the erogenous zones between those luscious legs sent shivers down her spine and warmth through her body. Sammy was nervous, feeling her hands trembling as the warm water trickled down her spine. Washing her hair, she ran her left hand down her belly to her soft lips. Teasing them apart, she let the water trickle down to her thighs, slowly arousing every sense.

Imaginary Lover

Thoughts of Richard drove her wild. Her index finger slowly reached between her thighs, and her mind went blurry with pleasure. She imagined her lover grabbing her waist and pulling her toward his rock-hard body. Quickly, she dismissed those feelings, otherwise her intended three-minute shower could turn into a fifteen-minute play.

Quick Preparation

She got out of the shower in five minutes, dripping, and grabbed her towel as she ran to her bags to get her toiletries and clothes. Carefully, she picked out her clothes and placed them on the bed, then returned to the bathroom. She brushed her teeth, used her toiletries, and applied lipstick. Sammy looked at her reflection, standing naked in front of the mirror, and couldn’t help but like what she saw.

Final Touches

She had a Brazilian wax before leaving the United States, and her pubic region was as hairless and smooth as the day she was born. The lips of her labia were visible between her athletic legs. She wore basic makeup and rarely used foundation as her skin was clear and blemish-free. She quickly applied her perfume and returned to her bed.

Dressing Up

She selected her lucky purple G-string that Ian had joked about. A black dress with a body-con design and V-neck, paired with black 2-inch heels, completed her look. She knew she could wear them comfortably as Richard’s Facebook profile mentioned he was 6 feet 4 inches tall. Sammy went to the bathroom to ensure everything was in place. Satisfied, she took her room swipe card and left the room just shy of 15 minutes after receiving the call.

Kavalan Whisky Affair

Doubts and Determination

As she reached the foyer, Sammy thought to herself, “I can’t do this. I think I may need to cancel!” However, her desire overpowered her fear, and she walked on, entering the Jade Lounge at 8:29 p.m.

Entrance and Attention

It seemed like a vacuum had sucked out all the noise in the restaurant. Almost everyone stopped eating or held their glasses in slow motion, all eyes fixed on Sammy. About 80% of the clientele, mostly men, appeared to be Chinese businessmen, all staring at her.

Richard’s Introduction

“Hi there, Sammy. It’s your height and beauty they’re all staring at. I’m Richard,” he said, slowly putting his arm around her waist and leading her to the bar.

Initial Impressions

At the bar, she noticed he was wearing a loose white silk shirt, grey khaki pants, and black shoes. He had the confident look of someone sure of himself and his effect on people. His attitude and mood seemed to influence everyone within a hundred-meter radius. His big brown eyes and folded lips formed a cute, little smile.

First Drink

“Can I get you something?” he asked, gesturing towards the bar.

She replied, “I’ll have what you’re having.”

“Good choice,” he said, motioning to the barman and pointing at his drink, then holding up one finger. The barman nodded in understanding.

Mutual Attraction

Sammy felt an intense heat rush through her as she smelled the sexy musk perfume emanating from his neck. Richard’s heart fluttered as he took in Sammy’s image, smelling her hair, and noticing the fullness of her breasts and the perky nipples visible through her dress.

Comfortable Conversation

Handed a neat Kavalan whisky, they chatted about the weather and Taiwanese culture. This general chit-chat allowed them to become comfortable and acquainted. As they sat down for dinner, Richard decided to indulge his senses with the local cuisine. Sammy, wanting to play it safe, ordered a Caesar chicken salad. She was impressed by his vast knowledge of Mandarin and Taiwanese culture.

Engaging Conversation

Sammy was intrigued and kept asking questions about the country and Richard’s decision to relocate permanently. They chatted freely, and Richard ordered his third glass of whisky, laughing at Sammy’s inquisitive nature. Inevitably, their conversation took a turn for the more risqué. Take two strong-willed personalities with a craving for power and emotional depth, allow them hours of conversation and sharing, and it will lead to flirting.

Calling It a Night

At 11 p.m., Sammy realized she had been awake for over 30 hours, not including the nano-nap in her room. “I think I am going to have to call it a night now to get some rest,” she said, finishing her second whisky. God, that whisky was good stuff.

Gentlemanly Gesture

Richard, ever the gentleman, suggested walking her to her room since it was close to the restaurant. She let him. As she rose from her seat, Richard reached out and pulled the chair back—very gentlemanly. She became unsteady on her feet, and he grabbed her by the waist to ensure she didn’t fall. His firm but tender grip made her heart race, and her cheeks flushed.

Invitation to Chat

“I’m not sure whether it’s the whisky or just the fact that it’s my first night in a strange town, and I have not had any sleep. Do you mind coming up with me to chat a bit?” Sammy asked, lazily stroking his arm.

Reflective Moments

They went up to her room, and Richard sat on the couch by the patio, reminiscing about sleepless nights spent in intense chats with his former wife. To calm down, he would grab a glass of water.

Emotional Connection

Sammy noticed his distraction. “What’s wrong?” she asked.

Richard placed his arm around her shoulder as they sat on the balcony watching the stars. “It’s impressive how we had such a connection despite never meeting. Honestly, I thought about you every single day. When I saw the word ‘offline’ on your profile, my whole outlook would turn forlorn. Emptiness only a loved one could bring. I felt like someone had stabbed me in the heart.”

Deep Longing

Sammy drew closer, looking into his eyes, recognizing a deep longing and craving for love. “What do you think of love?” she asked him.

Richard’s Past

He stared into the street below and spoke with certainty, “Sammy, I have been in love before. I cannot lie. It was wonderful at first but it turned sour. So, I had to find closure.”

“How did you find closure?” she asked softly.

Finding Closure

“The pain taught me a lesson. I’m not ready to experience that again. The pain is draining, so I had to walk away from the love of my life. Closure is something scary. We may think we want it, but we do not. We may seek it and never find it. It is really hard. The end is harsh. However, the end is simply the beginning of something new. I feel like I found my closure and I’m happy. And so is my ex-wife. That’s all that matters for now.”

Comfort and Connection

Sammy was taken aback by the pain in his voice. She looked up at him and felt the need to hold him close and protect him from the world. She ran her hand over his as she stared in the direction of the Tamsui River. A gust of wind blew through the now open balcony door. The noises of the busy city could be heard, and her nipples were rock hard. She did not realize it at the moment, but Richard suddenly did.

He pulled her towards him, cupped her face, and said, “I am alright now, darling.”

The First Kiss

She stared at his moist lips and realized there was no escaping how she felt. Richard pulled her closer and slowly planted a nervous kiss on her lips. She reciprocated and pressed closer. Their hearts beat rapidly with anticipation. Richard picked her up gently and slowly grazed her neck with his lips.

“Take me,” Sammy whispered.

Passion Unleashed

Richard, strong as an ox, swept her off her feet effortlessly and took her into the bedroom. He laid her gently on the bed and slowly pulled off her khaki pants. Her thighs weakened as he planted firm kisses on them, making his way to her neck. She sat up and quickly pulled off her blouse, nearly tearing it. Richard took off his shirt, came closer, and kissed her deeply.

His right hand cupped her right breast, and he whispered in appreciation, “Sammy, you are an exceptionally beautiful woman.”

Intimate Moments

Soon enough, he was on top of her, sucking on her left nipple as she excitedly pulled down her pink lace thong. Richard slid down and covered her wet lips with his tongue. Pangs of pleasure surged through Sammy, and she let out a deep moan. Richard looked up at her.

She blushed and said, “Sorry, you should know I am a screamer.”

Intense Connection

Richard pulled down his pants and whispered, “That is incredibly sexy.” Sammy felt his hard body grind gently into her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and looked deeply into his eyes. She had never felt this way before. Her whole body was on fire. She felt every thrust and reciprocated with gusto.

Unexpected Confession

“I love you,” Sammy hadn’t intended for the words to slip out.

Richard smiled at her and softly said, “I love you, Sammy. More than you can imagine.”

Deep Embrace

She smiled back and kissed him as he went deeper into her senses. Lost in his embrace, she closed her eyes and slowly felt the closeness. The thick musk of love and surrender enveloped her. She had finally found her love in a strange world.

Morning After

The next morning, she woke up to the sun’s rays on her face. There was a beautiful, sweet smell of roses and strange oriental scents. She turned over and saw Richard watching her sleep.

A New Beginning

“Nĭh’o,” he said as he kissed her forehead. “You are my ultimate Taiwan erotic story.”

She giggled like a young girl or an old lady who had recovered her youth and drifted off happily back to a sweet slumber. The project would have to wait just one more day. Regardless of the outcome, she knew she was going to be okay!

Natural Ending

Their love had blossomed in the most unexpected of places, bringing with it a sense of completeness neither had anticipated. The vibrant city of Taipei, with its bustling streets and serene landscapes, had become the backdrop for a romance that felt both surreal and profoundly real. As they lay entwined, the world outside faded, leaving just the two of them in their own intimate universe. The future was uncertain, but the present was perfect, and for now, that was all that mattered.
