Best staycation getaway in SF. (iykyk) And a glass of Old Potrero Rye, the local sauce, suits this rustic 1906 rooftop joint perfectly, with its classic San Francisco views. Cheers! This 2025 Limited Edition from Mars Tsunuki leans more into its sherry casks than its bourbon casks. Fine. But given my recent and lingering sherry fatigue, I’ll admit to being a bit disappointed. I’ll return to it for proper notes once it’s had some time to air out a bit, and maybe track down a more bourbon influenced Tsunuki release to compare it to. Until then, kanpai! New notes on KILKERRAN 12 YEAR SINGLE MALT. Tap that 🔗 IN BIO for deets on this solid scotch sipper. Sláinte!
