Yesterday got wild pretty quick in the morning, super dirty martini.

Then after my daughters softball game we stopped at the local watering hole for a drink in cold air. I got a smoked rum old fashioned.

Wholey Carp, Chef! Were you able to get your daughter home?
Denny O Sounds like just about everyone had a “day”. Your choice of cocktails was energizing.

Then I guess I’ll have to get one for the house. I purchased this bottle for a very good friend that does me well as I also do for him. But he has the channels for the marine industry that can save me a bit of cash and I wish to reciprocate.So I went on a whim based off the store managers suggestion.
Could I have done better?? I’m asking for the next time.
Denny O Well, well, well. It appears from the people who responded that you struck it rich on your choice. As a vintner once said: “There’s a reason why there’s soooo many choices of wine and spirits on the shelves”. It all comes down to one’s pallette on any given day. Believe in you local merchant if you don’t have the experience to select. I believe the recipient will rejoice and hopefully share it with others. Have another great day.

Denny O There is always a better bottle, but your choice was certainly top shelf.

Both of my sons were at the house this evening. We were setting on the patio watching the sun set when my lovely wife suggested I make some Irish coffee to take the chill out of the air. The whipped cream was left over from a homemade Strawberry cake my youngest made his Mom yesterday. Life is good.

GWG8541 Looks like a nice plan to have. We have no sunset, I could watch the passing downpour and enjoy the 50 degree evening here. It’s cooling off fast with the rain. Hopefully we’ll see some sun later in the week. Life in the NW.

GWG8541 I thought we were going to be sunny, but the black clouds rolled in around noon and its been downpours on and off all afternoon. I see the sun now, but it’s black in the SW which means rain coming in off the coast.

We just received our yearly allocation from Sazerac.
1cs Sazerac Rye
1cs Eagle Rare 18yr
5cs George T Stagg
2cs Weller Antique
3cs Tom HandyRare stuff for my area… BTW, 1cs = 3btls
Only certain top accounts will get this stuff. Most all of them do some type of raffle on these.PapaSop I was just gifted a Sazerac Rye whiskey 90 proof from one of my girl buds and had it neat. I normally do not appreciate too many ryes. But, this one hit the old taste buds very nicely. It was one that I just sat back and enjoyed sipping. Shame on me!!!

zbigjeff like you I’m not a Rye fan, but I may have to give that one a try.

Nice. Enjoy. We actually just received our allocation of this. " It’s all sold". I’ve never tried it.
Just tried a rye from the Woodinville distillery this week. It’s very tasty but, not my go to option. Not dissing their product. Just doesn’t catch me. Perhaps I need a few more samples…
