It’s late October here in Virginia and we are enjoying unseasonably warm temps. Could be the last time for shorts, flashy Hawaiian shirts and sandals. Still working on the tan as I write.
Starting the week with a leftover from Whiskey Weekend and a rebrand cigar.
Whistle Pig Homestock
This was made I place of the Farmstock due to the shutdown in 2020 due to Covid-19. The distillery sent out thousands of tasting/blending kits to selected customers. Through at virtual event, they sampled, blended and then selected what would become Homestock.
Sweet, Vanilla and hints of smoke on the nose. Smooth flavors of citrus and baking spices. This is a great pour and wish I had a full bottle.
I paired that Rye with a Nica Rustica Adobe by Drew Estate.
Wrapper: Ecuador (Habano)
Binder: Brazilian
Filler: Nicaraguan
Size: Robusto
Soft leather notes with a smooth, nutty draw. Burn time about 45 minutes.
A perfect combination for a perfect day!
Old Man Winter is around the corner, gonna take full advantage when I can
Cheers Y’all!
