I put some Campbeltown Loch to work in this riff on The Expat cocktail, The Expat Killer, which subs blended scotch for the original’s bourbon and adds a dash of chocolate bitters. It’s killer. Cheers! New notes on CAMPBELTOWN LOCH BLENDED MALT. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this excellent blend of five Campbeltown (i.e. Springbank) single malt whiskies. Sláinte! Regular followers may recall that in June I committed to buying only 12 bottles between then and June 2027. Well, the first purchase has been made—the new Rare Character NDP revival of the famous cult Black Maple Hill label. Will the bourbon inside do right by the legend? Can’t wait to find out. Cheers!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
