I have a nice photo of tonight's libation but can't figure out how to post the URL. I've googled and tried it several times and it's just... not working.
Anyway, I'm having Gin Bothy's Speycast gin with orange zest and Fever Tree tonic. It's a small batch distillery that has some amazing gins and Scottish whisky. Never had gin before moving to Angus, but it's a popular drink with my friends so.... The Bothy provided Gunshot gin for the Academy Awards a couple years ago. Two of these and I'll be quite happy!
There's a commercial for Fever Tree claiming that 2/3rds of your cocktail is tonic. Not in this house it's not.
I have never been a drinker ( <xxxxxxxxxxxx>~ ) but now that I'm retired and have a fabulous outdoor office shed that looks over Roman burial grounds to the mountains of the Cairngorm National Park, I engage in RP, headphones, G & T, and my other favourite pastime.
Happy Festive Season to all, and if someone wants to school me on how to post a photo here, I'll happily post it.
I find Maker's harsh. My current favorite is Evan Williams Bottled-In-Bond; very smooth sipping whiskey.
I'm on both end of that rainbow. I love a drink that has a nice bite to it, but I also like a smooth drink.
Mind you, I don't find Maker's harsh. I'll have to see if I can find any Evan Williams, as the USA liquor they're clearing here is going fast.
I've messaged William and he blocked him once when he had only 4 usernames but has not replied since Mr. Spam returned with 6 usernames...Pretty sure it is exotraxx back to haunt us...Sad.
It's not even "spam" (he's not hawking shoes or any other products), it's just flat-out trolling.
I realize that, I just used that name because I had to call him something, but thanks for pointing that out, R.

anyway, a toast to whoever at RP is in charge of deleting spammers because holy smokes!

Imagine being so small that when you see something other people are enjoying, your reaction is to try and break it. And yes, thanks to the ban hammerer.
A 'celebrity' label, Chris Stapleton and Buffalo Trace put it out. Should be solid.
Ya, I didn't see that until after I got home and read the back label. Had a glass and it is quite nice. Quite the punch flavor-wise. Just don't ask me what it tastes like. I leave that to the experts. ð
