I still come across this 2018 release in shops from time to time and always pick up a bottle when I do. One of the best “limited editions” ever produced—quality stuff, affordable, tastes great. Cheers! Devil’s Acre, on Columbus near Broadway in San Francisco’s North Beach district, is a solid cocktail bar. The menu breathes genuine fresh life into classics without resorting to the cliches of contemporary mixology. Their Devil’s Manhattan (see 📸2) is an excellent example—and is excellent. Cheers! This small batch blend of 8-to-10-year MGP bourbon from @klwines continues to be a unique and decadently syrupy toasted vanilla bomb, accented by savory herbal and spice notes. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
