I've gotten behind in sharing recent pick ups. I've been doing a lot of Drammers Club online tastings, and I took advantage of their Drinqy discount to pick up a few things.

Tenmile Distillery doesn't have distribution in MA yet, but my friend Melissa Giges (late of Compass Box) is repping for them now, and I was impressed by their tasting, so I had to pick up a couple. They make American Single Malt Whisky, which is a relatively small category.

I picked up Little Rest First Edition, which was one of the samples in our tasting that I quite enjoyed. And, being a rye lover, I had to pick up the Double Matured Rye Cask Finish. This wasn't one of the samples, but I'm looking forward to trying this one. I do hope they get a MA distributor soon.

I also picked up the Knob Creek Bourbon X Rye. Knob Creek is a favorite, and I've really liked other bourbon/rye blends, so I figured I'd give this a shot.

And they just got High West Distillery A Midwinter Night's Dram Act 13 in, and had it on discount, so I snapped that up. I hadn't seen it pop up in MA yet. This continues my run - I have all 14 Acts (including Encore).

I also finally corrected a long time oversight on my part and joined the The Scotch Malt Whisky Society of America. I don't know what took me so long, but they were running a promo where you got membership with the purchase of a bottle. So I picked up "The Wandering" Blended Malt Scotch - which appears to be called "Wandering Alchemy" outside the US.
