Recreating a cocktail I had in Gdansk, Poland, called the Old Town. My adaptation 📸1, the original recipe 📸3, and old town Gdansk itself 📸5. I recommend all three. Na zdrowie! This ol’ fave? Still a fave. Like smoked chocolate cake served by the sea. Sláinte! This is the only Whiskey Barons release that made a significant impression. Still overpriced like its two predecessors in the series. But now that the brouhaha around it is several years past, I can appreciate this Wild Turkey riff for what it is—good bourbon. So long ol’ feller. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
