It’s that time. My quarterly dry week—to reset my palate, my body, and my brain. The NA beer game has much improved over the years, and this Rationale Japanese Style “beer” makes a great cap to the day. See y’all again October 8. Cheers—maybe with “beer,” maybe with coffee! This is one that contributed greatly to my sherry fatigue, and helped me understand that scotch aged in first-fill sherry casks just isn’t my jam. But I put it to good use in many Rob Roy and other cocktails. Waste not want not. Sláinte! A lovely single cask from Ardnamurchan courtesy of @klwines that’s both elegant and robust. Creamy, malty, rich, sweet, all the things. Sláinte!

Now also on THREADS and BLUESKY 🧵🦋🥃
