I'm still happy to wait for the next batch.

Interested in HC fun but no inherent Formula One interest. Thanks for getting the ball rolling Mike!

Freshe out of ye olde Dewe. Didn't get my Rittenhouse today. Soon I hope...

Have a good one! Cheers

^That is very disturbing!

I started to make a Mountain Man and realized too late that I am out of Cocchi Americano. I made a twist on the recipe with 2oz Tennessee whiskey, .50 Bonal, .50 Averna, and two dashes orange bitters. More bitter profile but quite tasty.

Didn't mean to leave people hanging, but Gene reported in alive and well on terra firma in Maine.
