Spirits & Cocktails
A good drink’s more than booze—it’s a ritual. Whiskey’s my thing, from smoky Islays to smooth bourbons, but this section’s for any guy who appreciates a well-crafted pour. Around 50, I’ve learned to savor tasting notes and mix cocktails that impress without pretension. Think old fashioneds that hit just right or a home bar that rivals your favorite speakeasy. I’ll share picks for bottles worth splurging on, mixing tips for guys’ night, and how to taste like a pro (without sounding like one). Whether you’re 30 or 60, this is about enjoying the moment, not chasing a buzz. From my Connecticut evenings with Maren, I’ve got stories and recipes to share. Let’s raise a glass to life’s finer things—because you’ve earned it.
