It sometimes happens during a Dry Week that I scratch the itch with buying rather than sipping. That’s how I picked up this trio of single malts—Bodie 5 Dog, Fettercairn, and a rare Carsebridge find. Can’t wait to try them all. Cheers! New notes on KILKERRAN SHERRY CASK MATURED 8 YEAR SINGLE MALT. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this cask strength Campbeltown sherry bomb. Sláinte! The first sip back after Dry Week is always a special one, and this time it’s Rubicon Rye—my hometown hooch. Each batch is slightly different and always good. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
