Tonight’s #WorldSeries dram is the Keeper’s Heart Cask Strength blend of Irish Whiskies and Bourbon. Good balance of floral character and caramel sweetness.

What a coincidence! My dog is named Islay, too!

My #frozenfrenzy #hockeydram tonight is an unredacted Whiskey Del Bac Ode to Islay. Whiskey Del Bac got its wrists slapped by the Scotch Whisky Association for daring to put “Islay” on a bottle…even as an inspiration.

Sipping a 12-year-old Royal Lochnagar tonight. Got this bottle when I visited the distillery many years ago for the Diageo Malt Whisky Course.

The mailman just dropped off my copy of the new Malt Whisky Yearbook. It’s an essential reference guide in my work, and I recommend it to any whisky lover!

My first dram of the weekend is the Glenmorangie A Tale of Spices single malt. It lives up to its name with a potpourri of spices, including ginger, nutmeg, and chili powder. Very nice!

Just tasted the sequel to Jack Daniel’s “hazmat” Coy Hill release…the Single Barrel Special Release Tanyard Hill Rye whiskey at almost 73% ABV. Dry and astringent on the palate with good baking spices, dark chocolate, and mint.
