Welp, my quarterly Dry Week was due to end yesterday but early on I came down with a cold. 🙄 I’ll be extending my dry time a couple more days. I’ve got a new post ready for the ol’ blog though so look for that later this week. Until then, cheers—with tea! It’s that time. My quarterly dry week—to reset my palate, my body, and my brain. See y’all again April 8. Cheers—with coffee! This Westward single malt finished in PX Sherry casks is stellar. Rather than overwhelming the whiskey, the Sherry cask pulls forward Westward’s innate fruity qualities. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
