A whiskey adventure for you and me.
In Kentucky, Bourbon gains proof as it ages. In Scotland, whiskey loses proof as it ages.

Scotch drinkers revealed as stingiest tippers >>
While the more affable bourbon drinkers tipped their way all the way to “most generous” (at a 22.6% average) and into the hearts of their bartenders forevermore.

My good friend Blaine found 38 year #glenfarclas for me and made a custom bottle. Good #scotch #whisky all-around for my 38th birthday. I know it’s not a bourbon, @bookofbourbon, but I thought you’d appreciate it. (Taken with instagram)
Brilliant. We always appreciate a beautiful bottle, and in this case, an excellent and talented friend.

One spring(ish) day, a friend mistakenly ordered a “Montana Mule” rather than a Moscow Mule. Which prompted the thought: What would be in a Montana mule?
A few hours, a half dozen prototypes, and indeterminably googling the state fruit of Montana later (which maybe might be the cherry, possibly) we developed the Montana Mule after all.
Essentially a spin on a whiskey ginger with some bitters and the smoky taste of campfire, this drink is both strong enough and mellow enough for a late springtime afternoon.
2.5 ounces Bulleit
ginger beer (we used Reed’s)
9 drops angostura bitters
brandied cherry
the tiniest drop of scotch (we used Laphroaig)
served on the rocks in an Old-Fashioned glass

I love to sing, and I love to drink scotch. Most people would rather hear me drink scotch.

It might be Scotch, but blending your own whisky is always awesome.
