DOTD! What are y'all drinking on today.

[Gargravarr]

Nothing. It’s a mere 48% abv. steadies the hands. All shaving should be done with a dram on hand.

Mmmm, good thinking. Sounds like breakfast to me...

Man its tasty. Starward Maple syrup cask.

That little 46 is a great brush. 2 more like that and I wouldn’t need any others. That vintage badger goodness.

As the proud owner of that lovely pink Simpson, you really don't need any others anyway.

I don't know there is also a premium Simpsons fibre as well. They have 2 grades apparently. At this stage Im only after 2 brushes. A vintage Simpsons and an aluminium No 3 Rubberset boar.

I can’t fault the the guys at Webster Newtown

Also had a nice Westward.

A Leapfrog vertical. Mmmm, very nice. That's a drawback to living where I am, there's no-one to decant me home after such an event. I'd have to book a room...

For me it’s an 1:45 by train. Worth it though. It’s not every day you can try 2 CS 15s, a 25 and 27 frog from fresh bottles.

Tomorrow is my day of all kids at school or pre-school and work from home.

ritual is at 1pm I'll kick over a different cigar with a drink to just wind down.

Tomorrow is a Partagas Seried D No.4 with a nice double shot of a Brandy made from Plums (homemade Moonshine I've got access to)

If it wasn't for the weather, I'd more than likely kick over the smoker.

Heh, you mean a sliva! (Slivovicz, slivovitza, slivovitsa, sliboviță, šljivovica, śliwowica, schlivowitz, slivovice, slivovica, slivovka...) I still have the treasured remains of a plagon, erm, a large bottle of the stuff my Macedonian neighbour made while I was living in Perth. Breakfast of champions...

I know that this is in 'The Distillery' but at the moment this is what I'm drinking -

Really nice in the weather!

Fond memories of a year in the UK circa 1982 where I discovered the joys of Theakston's OP!

Mt favourite Theakstons.

On tap its magic. Pity we can't get it here.

Yes, I was conscious of this and nearly used my cut crystal beer mug rather than my son's glass - but the size was right on this one!
