Still enjoying this unusual rye whisky from Islay. Bruichladdich’s gamble paid off. I hope they’ve got more still aging. I’d love to try it again at 10+ years. Sláinte! Three northern California single malts—Hirsch, Bodie 5 Dog, St. George. Each distinct. Each distinctly NorCal. Cheers! Cold outside, warm inside. Gratitude for the comforts I have. Cheers.

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
