Fernet Branca is something that many readers might not have tried before. In fact, I’d bet that if you’re not in the industry or aren’t a fellow booze geek you may have never tried it before. So before I talk about what I mean by the bartender’s handshake, let me give a bit of background.

The @laphroaig 25 YO release from the Bessie Willi The @laphroaig 25 YO release from the Bessie Williamson Story, bottled at 43%. 

I bought this at the airport in Hong Kong on my last trip before COVID locked Singapore (and everywhere else) down. Bessie Williamson owned and managed the Laphroaig distillery in the mid 20th century and was the only woman to own a Scotch distillery in that century. She also played a large role in popularizing Scotch in the US as well as helping to promote single malts when blends were the only Scotch whisky anyone really thought about.

Cool winter nights make me think of malt whisky, a Cool winter nights make me think of malt whisky, and tonight I reached for this 10 YO @amrutmalt part of @maisonduwhisky 's Artist Collection. It was finished in a PX sherry cask and bottled at 63.9%.

Amrut is at the forefront of the Indian single malt whisky brands making their way across the world. Ten years ago it'd be hard to find this or any other Indian whisky on the shelf in the US or Asia. Now they're quite common -- and they're very good! While the whisky brands sold domestically in India are often something else entirely (made with molasses, for example), these export brands are the real thing.
