Cracked this one open for autumn. A Four Roses barrel strength single barrel store pick from 2022. I picked it up at half price because they mistagged it. Tastes twice as good! Cheers! Regular followers may recall that in June I committed to buying only 12 bottles between then and June 2027. Now the second purchase has been made—Westward’s 9 Year Botted in Bond Single Malt. I’ve never tasted a Westward I didn’t like so I’m looking forward to this one. Cheers! New notes on WESTLAND GARRYANA 10TH EDITION. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this 10-year single malt from the Pacific Northwest. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
