Mail call! A nice boozy package showed up today from the folks at @threechordbourbon! We're excited to dive into these real soon. I gotta admit though, I'm a bit torn between which I'm going to like more... The Cask Strength or the Pinot Noir finish. Hopefully I get to try the 12 and 15 year releases soon too! Have you had Three Chord Bourbon before? What did you think? Let me know in the comment below! #🥃 #whiskey #dram #instadram #instawhisky #instawhiskey #whiskeygram #whiskygram #whiskeysommelier #whiskeydiplomat #whiskeyauthor #authorsofinstagram #beginnersguidetowhiskey #ウイスキー #bourbon #whiskeylover #bourbon #whisky #bartenderlife #bartender #drinks🍹 #instadrink #cheers #Slainte #drink #nowdrinking #booze #whiskylover #imbibe #sip

Big thank you to our friends at @barrellbourbon for sending over this bad boy. Every year Barrell releases their New Year Bourbon, and 2020 wasn't gonna stop em! With an ABV slightly shy of 60% this is sure to be some HOT (but delicious) juice! I haven't decided how I'm going to do my review yet, but stay tuned to the link in my bio because when I decide how I'm gonna do it, I'll post the link there. #🥃 #whiskey #dram #instadram #instawhisky #instawhiskey #whiskeygram #whiskygram #whiskeysommelier #whiskeydiplomat #whiskeyauthor #authorsofinstagram #beginnersguidetowhiskey #ウイスキー #bourbon #whiskeylover #bourbon #whisky #bartenderlife #bartender #drinks🍹 #instadrink #cheers #Slainte #drink #nowdrinking #booze #whiskylover #imbibe #sip

Happy holidays everyone! Hope you and yours are happy and healthy. I have a New review on @wheelhorsewhiskey live at the link in my bio! This is a new to market Bourbon from the same folks who did the Rye whiskey. #🥃 #whiskey #dram #instadram #instawhisky #instawhiskey #whiskeygram #whiskygram #whiskeysommelier #whiskeydiplomat #whiskeyauthor #authorsofinstagram #beginnersguidetowhiskey #ウイスキー #bourbon #whiskeylover #bourbon #whisky #bartenderlife #bartender #drinks🍹 #instadrink #cheers #Slainte #drink #nowdrinking #booze #whiskylover #imbibe #sip

Had a grand time tasting the new #irishoak pot still from @glendaloughdistillery today with @doublemeasuredonal! This is a fantastic and delicious single pot still Irish whiskey and it's also a single cask which is neat. They're using two types of barrels with this release, Quercus Alba or "American oak" aka ex-bourbon barrels (53 gallons most likely) for primary maturation. Irish whiskey law states that the minimum age to be called Irish whiskey is 3yrs and 1 day. They then put it into Irish Oak hogsheads that are approximately 145 gallons for about a year. This oak type is called Quercus Petrea in Latin or Dair Ghalda in Irish Gaelic. For every tree that they cut down to turn into staves for barrels, they plant 7 more to try and revitalize this almost extinct species (it now makes up less than .05 of the oak in Ireland). Thank you @glendaloughus for including me in this tasting and for the care package of a @tuathglass, bottle of the pot still, and coasters from tree one. #🥃 #whiskey #dram #instadram #instawhisky #instawhiskey #whiskeygram #whiskygram #whiskeysommelier #whiskeydiplomat #whiskeyauthor #authorsofinstagram #beginnersguidetowhiskey #ウイスキー #bourbon #whiskeylover #bourbon #whisky #bartenderlife #bartender #drinks🍹 #instadrink #cheers #Slainte #drink #nowdrinking #booze #whiskylover #imbibe #sip

I recently had the pleasure of tasting the rerelease of @glendronach Portwood with @dramswithbecky and I just have to say WOW. This may be the most syrupy, creamy, viscous, and delicious GlenDronach I've ever had. The Port finish plays super well with GD's fruity notes. We also tasted the 15yr revival alongside it. If you heard me talk about GlenDronach at all recently you'd probably have heard me say that the 15 was my favourite, dethroning the 21... Until now! With much surprise the portwood is my new favourite dethroning the 15's short but mighty reign. The king is dead, long live the king. They also sent us some Portuguese cheese and corn bread (not pictured) from @shopportuguese to enjoy. The cheese was too strong for me but I shared it with my father and our friend Jake Bluenote and they loved it. So it still went to good homes. #🥃 #whiskey #dram #instadram #instawhisky #instawhiskey #whiskeygram #whiskygram #whiskeysommelier #whiskeydiplomat #whiskeyauthor #authorsofinstagram #beginnersguidetowhiskey #ウイスキー #bourbon #whiskeylover #bourbon #whisky #bartenderlife #bartender #drinks🍹 #instadrink #cheers #Slainte #drink #nowdrinking #booze #whiskylover #imbibe #sip

I'm really happy and excited to announce that my book, #TheBeginnersGuideToWhiskey is now available for purchase at @wildernesstraildistillery!

Back in September I visited my friend Kim's restaurant in West LA @sorrynotsorryla for a socially distanced meal and whiskey tasting. She assured me that they are very safe and the tables are 6ft apart in her now "beer garden" aka what used to be her parking lot. When I arrived they asked myself and my mother to scan a QR code on the pole next to the entrance, that took me to a Google form used for contact tracing. Filled in my name, email, and declared that I had no COVID symptoms and that I don't have COVID. There is an option on the form to be signed up for her newsletter which I thought was smart (I happily signed up btw). Then they took our temperatures before escorting us to our table. Menu was contactless and was also via QR code, as is common practice recently. Staff were masked and had face shields on ANYTHING they were near a guest. Mum and I both felt very safe during our visit. On to the whiskey now shall we? While sns is officially billing itself as a rosé bar, Kim loves her whiskey. Particularly Bourbon (don't go looking for Scotch or Irish, she doesn't stock much). The day I went I tried her High West flight (which she was selling for insanely cheap for four Whiskies) as well as the Sierra Norte Purple Corn, Michters American, FEW American Whiskey, and the neatest one of them all... The West LA Willet bottling! It's a single cask with directions on how to get to the westside on the label! While COVID has hit independent bars and restaurants hard and many are being forced to close, some permanently, I'm glad to see that there is still hope and that clever and crafty owners have adapted and pivoted to at least be able to scrape by during this ordeal. #🥃 #whiskey #dram #instadram #instawhisky #instawhiskey #whiskeygram #whiskygram #whiskeysommelier #whiskeydiplomat #whiskeyauthor #authorsofinstagram #beginnersguidetowhiskey #ウイスキー #bourbon #whiskeylover #bourbon #whisky #bartenderlife #bartender #drinks🍹 #instadrink #cheers #Slainte #drink #nowdrinking #booze #whiskylover #imbibe #sip
