Day 23 of my @flaviar_com whiskey advent calendar yields a whiskey dear to my heart: the Pōkeno Origin whiskey is a celebration of all things Kiwi. Made from local barley and aged unhurriedly this whiskey is the epitome of New Zealand. #whiskeyadventcalendar #newzealand #whiskey

Day 22 of my @flaviar_com whiskey advent calendar is a bourbon with a tenuous/reluctant to me. The Jimmy Red straight bourbon whiskey from @HighWireCHS is made 100% from Jimmy Red corn which comes from James Island in South Carolina. #whiskeyadventcalendar #bourbon #whiskey

Day 16 of my @flaviar_com whiskey advent calendar finally brings us a Japanese whiskey! From Chichibu Distillery, this “world blended malt and grain” is sourced from countries all over the world. Much thought and effort went into this. #whiskeyadventcalendar #japanese #whiskey

Day 15 of my @flaviar_com whiskey advent calendar is a @BushmillsUSA 12 year single malt. Not much to say other than this is probably the best Bushmills to start with when getting interested in whiskey. #whiskeyadventcalendar #whiskey

Day 14 of my @flaviar_com whiskey advent calendar is an old family recipe. Yellowstone single malt from @limestonebranch is the product of seven generations of distillers. Plus they donate to national parks like the one for which this is named. #whiskeyadventcalendar #whiskey

Day 9 of my @flaviar_com whiskey advent calendar is a rye from Danish distiller @stauningwhisky. I’ve had their Smoke variety before which I quite like. This one trades the smoke for a buttery, yet spicy nature. #whiskeyadventcalendar #rye #whiskey

Day 7 of my @flaviar_com whiskey advent calendar is the straightforward rye from @freyranch. What makes this rye great is its 100% single grain mash bill allowing for full appreciation of the grain without much in the way. #whiskeyadventcalendar #rye #whiskey
