My new found Ardnamurchan love continues with this cask strength single cask. Can’t wait to taste this stuff at full throttle. Sláinte! 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!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
