This πŸ¦¬πŸ¦ƒ bottle is nearing its final pours. It still comes across like a well-aged Buffalo Trace bourbon, with cherry, caramel, leather and oak. And this @klwines release was priced at ye olde BTAC prices from many years ago. Glad I went for it. Cheers! I was gifted this sample of the 2025 Thomas H. Handy. Great color. Spicy bright rye notes. Fiery bite to it. Not something I’d chase but certainly glad to have tried it. Cheers! New notes on BODIE 5 DOG SINGLE MALT. Tap that πŸ”— IN BIO for deets on this flavor-packed California whiskey. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY πŸ§΅πŸ¦‹πŸ₯ƒ
