The Padawan Wino

Finally got around to opening my bottle of Bourbon Barrel Aged Red from @inspiremoorewinery & all of the memories from my last visit came rushing back🍷 The experience when visiting the tasting room at Inspire Moore is like nothing I’ve ever encountered in my 5 years touring the FLX wine trails. It was like visiting a family member 🫶 We even had the opportunity to write a note to our future selves and add it to the wine wall just outside the winery. I would be lying if I said this wasn’t the most intimate & sentimental experience I’ve ever had in a tasting room! Thank you for the love, peace & intention you pour into the atmosphere. I’m looking forward to my next visit ♥️ #winery #wine #flxwine #flxwinecountry #fingerlakeswine #naplesny

What is intuitive drinking? 🤔 Scroll through to find the answer ➡️ I’ve learned a lot in my time being immersed in the local hospitality scene and one lesson I’ve observed is how quickly you can lose your grasp on the drink (or drinks) in your hand… So I’m here to help provide some guidance for anyone looking to develop a healthier relationship with alcohol! I hope you find these tips helpful next time to choose to imbibe 🥂 #mindfuldrinking #intuitivedrinking #mindfulness #sobercurious #drinks #wellness #intuition

Okay kids! It’s time for another Retro Mixtape Monday and this time…we’re making a “Summerween” themed playlist 😎🎃 What qualifies as a Summerween song? I’m so glad you asked! In my world, it’s any song between the 60s-2000s that feels summery or spooky to you. Bonus points if it’s both! Once I get to 20 tracks, I’ll post the Spotify playlist in my bio for your listening pleasure 🎧 Ready, set, go! 👇🏼 #retromusic #summerween #spookymusic #summerjams #playlist #spotify
