Rubicon Rye from @drydiggingsdistillery is always welcome on my shelf. One of my faves—made with 100% integrity and a great flavor bomb to boot. Gotta pick up another bottle already. Cheers! Wha-?! That’s right. Call it a Dirty Martini or a Salamitini. It works. Trust me. Cheers! The good people at Ardnamurchan are helping to make blended scotch whisky cool again. Maclean’s Nose blends 70% malt and 30% grain. It’s affordable and imo totally holds its own against many a pricier single malt. Sláinte!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
