Congregation Toras Chaim is pleased to offer it’s 10th Annual All-Night Shavuos Learning for men, 12:00-5:30 AM, Shabbos, May 19, 2018.
In Halacha, ignorance is certainly not bliss. The uneducated will unfortunately come to transgress in many areas, as mistaken assumptions abound regarding various Halachos.
Among the many types of alcoholic beverages that one may encounter at a simcha, one will inevitably find a bottle of Scotch whisky. Scotch has been produced in Scotland for hundreds of years and there are currently many brands and varieties available. The connoisseur may have his preferred Single Malt Scotch, but the average person will sample whatever varieties he may see. As most Scotch manufacturers do not have Kashrus supervision for their products, much attention has recently been directed to the halachic status of Scotch.
We will spend the night of Shavuos learning the fascinating and complex areas of Talmud Bavli, Shulchan Aruch and Responsa pertaining to Yayin Nesech, Stam Yeinum and Scotch production in order to discover which relevant and important halachic issues arise.
