Finally, a warm enough night to just sit outside listen to the Yankee game on the radio and have a nice cigar and whiskey.

True to form, I feel pretty good sitting down and enjoying my #whiskey. But then I stand up and it’s like I can hear the Angels sighing. It hits hard and kinda all at once. Not an unwanted sensation. The best part about finding the whiskey that suits me is that I never have a hangover from it. On the contrary, I sleep really well and always feel great the day after. Vitamin J. Pretty much. Anyhow, the oven is preheating.
Picked these up from Julio's Liquors this week.
The Wyoming Whiskey 50th Anniversary Julio's Liquors bespoke 120.6 proof seven year old single barrel straight bourbon whiskey.
And the St. George Spirits NOLA Coffee Liqueur. I got to try this as a bonus after a recent Whiskey Wednesday, thanks to the rep having a bottle in their car and being willing to let us try it. In liked it so much I put in a special order for one, as did two others. I believe they got a case in, so there were three more available last I knew.
This is cold brewed Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee, French chicory root, Madagascar vanilla, and organic cane sugar. Very simple, very tasty. Just this over ice would be a good sipper.
My first Drammers Club tasting sampler selection. This one is raising funds for Come Back Alive, a charity supporting Ukraine. Looking forward to these.
Thanks Charlie & Ruth, and Dan, for turning me on to them. I don't know how I managed to not be a member until now.
Well, if you got some money to burn. . .

I like Bushmill's, but I just get the one available on the shelf. YMMV.
A nice surprise from Compass Box Whisky arrived today, going out to members of The Blending Room.
A welcome box with a pin, tasting journal, pencil, and four lovely glass coasters.
And, since I'm posting CB swag, I was also recently gifted a set of four glass coasters with the Hedonism 2025 label art. Very nice and greatly appreciated. I won't thank the person by name as I don't want them hounded.
@SmudgeTheInsultCat If you do live here and drink, I would strongly urge you to not purchase #RedState liquor like #Bourbon and #Whiskey--and even throw that shit in the trash like I did. I have found lots of #BlueState liquors that are excellent--even superior I would argue--to #RedState liquors. #ImNotGoingBack
What better way to celebrate #InternationalWhiskyDay than with our video about the wild history of the Manhattan, that iconic whisky cocktail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7L2B9qj6N8
