CPK and Whisky (or other vices), a pictorial

I am whisk(e)y guy, through and through. That said, I have been expanding my bar with other spirits - notably: gins, vodkas, and rums. I've acquired some EXCELLENT sipping varieties of all of them. This is a new one that I just got - a Peruvian gin with an assortment of berries listed amongst the botanicals used.

It's very good. Kind of has citrus and spice, and everything nice. Including the DEK2 because though I am plenty secure in my manhood, it never hurts to have backup in moments like these. 😁

Oh my! That sounds/looks fantastic. I am by no means a particularly knowledgeable gin drinker, but I do like a good gin on occasion. that sounds really interesting. I am going to keep an eye out for that one.

On the subject of gin, since I know you are an Oregonian as well, have you tried Thinking Tree Gin? It is made in Eugene, and I really like it. It is a gin that you can drink on its own, but also use as a mixer without feeling guilty (I know that I have really found myself choosing whiskeys that I feel okay mixing or adding ice to). Everyone I've introduced to Thinking Tree Gin has loved it. I have friends in other states that ask anyone passing through Oregon to pick up a bottle for them.

The sledge looks mighty sexy on the DEK2.
 
Cheers CPK !!! Haven’t had a day off work for I don’t know how long so we did our Thanksgiving celebration last night. It was a wonderful gathering of family, friends, food, and libations !

The usual Jack, Jameson, beer, whine, and ciders were enjoyed. That said, I wanted to celebrate the many hours worked recently, due to severe weather in the PNW.

Also, I went to a horrific car versus pole fatality accident on Thanksgiving night and it’s been clawing at me a bit. All good though, being surrounded by loved ones and focusing on life’s MANY blessings has me in a joyous place.

So…I picked up a jug of unfamiliar Bulleit 95 proof 12 year aged yumminess. It is fantastic and was a huge hit. Might even have a nip in my coffee….as we speak ! 😝 It is merging very nicely with Mom’s cinnamon roll and a stogy at half-time will be the icing on the cake.

GO HAWKS !!!
