This ol’ Booker’s from late 2016 has finally met its end. It was a scorcher. Interestingly, over ice it wasn’t so great. But I thoroughly enjoyed it with a splash of water, neat, and in cocktails. (Use it to make a Staggering Gentleman cocktail if you’ve not before—it’ll live up to its name!) Cheers! New notes on WESTWARD 9 YEAR BOTTLED IN BOND. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this American single malt from the Pacific Northwest. Cheers! 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!
