I tried another unusual whisky on Saturday at Julio's Liquors Whiskey Roadshow. It's a Rye, which isn't unusual - but it is a 7 year old Islay Single Grain Scotch Whisky from Bruichladdich. And *that* is very unique.

I love rye whiskey, prefer it to bourbon, but we don't get a lot of rye from Scotland. There are a few, with RyeLaw being the one I see most often. This is a different take on rye, atypical compared to the average US rye, and I like what they've done. So I picked up a bottle tonight.

While at Julio's Liquors today for a Macallan Master Class and the Whiskey Roadshow, I picked up a couple of bottles that I'd been waiting on, the WhistlePig The Boss Hog XII and Westland Garryana 10th Edition, which is (coincidentally? Probably not) also their first 10 year old.

Which is lucky, given the massive theft earlier this year. 12,000 bottles stolen, including 3,000 of the 7,500 bottles of Garryana 10th. So it's going to be rarer than usual. https://thewhiskeywash.com/whiskey-articles/the-1-million-westland-whiskey-heist-where-could-it-all-end-up/

I cracked The Boss Hog XII tonight and it's not bad, but I was hoping for more of a cacao hit - I really didn't pick up on it. But it is certainly better than the hideous XI from last year. No one I've poured that for had liked it. It's awful.

Die Freuden des Alltags

Meine wissende Ehefrau: "Ich habe heute zum ersten Mal viel mehr Sauerteig als sonst in mein '24 Stunden Brot' ohne Kneten eingearbeitet.
Es ist fantastisch geworden: Elastisch, schmackhaft - mit Suchtfaktor!"

The autumn storms were faster than us (cat edition).

The autumn storms were faster than us. Now the hut has collapsed. We hoped it would last a little longer. At least until we were back again. But in the end, it doesn't matter. In November, we will build a fire. With the wood from the hut. To close the project, together with the village. We will drink beer brewed from the rye grown in our field. And then it will all be over. But until then, there's still a lot to do.

[PRESERVED // Rågens rike / Finland 2024-25 deals with the question of the identity-creating significance of rye for Finland - especially in the region of Vörå, resp. Ostrobothnia - and how this relationship can be reflected artistically ("Rågens rike" means "Kingdom of Rye" and describes this very region - Finlands granary) The project is hosted by Abramsgården in Vörå (Vöyri) in the Swedish speaking part of Finland, a cultural center in the countryside run by Dorothee Schulte-Basta and Peter Lüttge.
