Following yesterday’s post, while weeding my photo bin I came across this pic of a memorable pairing of pumpkin pie and Macduff 21 Year Single Malt. Sadly (and happily) that bottle has since been killed...! Click the ol’ LINK IN PROFILE if you haven’t already, for new notes on that old Macduff. 🎃 🥧 🤺 🎭 🥃 #macduff #hunterlaing #hepburnschoice #singlemalt #scotch #followtherightspirit #whiskey #whisky #bourbon #rye #thebourbonalliance

New notes on this dramatic MACDUFF 21-YEAR SINGLE MALT SCOTCH! Click the ol’ LINK IN PROFILE for the full tale...! 🥃 🥃 🥃 🥃 🥃 #macduff #hunterlaing #hepburnschoice #singlemalt #scotch #followtherightspirit #whiskey #whisky #bourbon #rye #thebourbonalliance @hunterlaingwhisky

A fellow whiskey fan gave me this mystery sample. My notes were these: COLOR: pale burnt orange. NOSE: bright caramel and oak, grilled lemon peel. TASTE: wheat, soft, butter, bit of lemon zest, slightly floral. FINISH: soft oaky tannins. I estimated it at 90-ish proof. I compared it to a few other bottles I thought might be similar. My guess? Weller Special Reserve. What was it actually...? 🥁 🥁 🥁 🥁 🥁 ...an Elijah Craig Small Batch store-pick from @maisoncorbeaux in S.F.! My brain did not even go there, and I’m a big Elijah Craig fan! 🤷🏼‍♂️ Mystery sampling is always fun! 🥃 🥃 🥃 🥃 🥃 #mysterysample #greatwaytolearn #wellerspecialreserve #elijahcraigbourbon #followtherightspirit #whiskey #whisky #bourbon #rye #thebourbonalliance
