New notes on REDBREAST 21 YEAR. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this tasty (though way too pricy) Irish whiskey. Sláinte! 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!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
