New notes on a 2014 PURE KENTUCKY XO. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this pre-“Willett” release from Willet’s NDP days. Were those better days for the PKXO? Cheers! Poland Bar Hop Pt3: Located in the Old Town center of Gdansk, the rather literally named Craft Cocktails lives up to its name with an extensive and creative menu. I had the Almost There (recipe 📸 6) and despite being a whiskey cocktail if you’d told me it was a Mojito variation I might have believed you. Very refreshing anyway. And the 1930s art deco atmosphere manages to be both that and casual. Good joint. Na zdrowie! Poland Bar Hop Pt2: Step into the austere lobby of Warsaw’s Teatr Dramatyczny and pass through the blue curtain. You’ll find Cafe Kulturalna, a cozy joint serving anything you might need. Local artwork is on display. You don’t have to attend the theater to go. I had their Taras Widokowy (Trans. Observation Deck) cocktail, named after a famous nearby lookout point atop a VERY tall building. It was both refreshing and kicky. Great bar. Na zdrowie!
