Leaving 2024 behind w/ a very chill hangout in a very cute new (to us) bar, Slice of Life. Try the espresso martini, this one is quite unique.

What’s your go-to whisky cocktail?
I tend to gravitate to whisky sours but today looking through records Paper Place seemed like the right fit, most commonly perhaps made w/ bourbon but can be just as fun with whisky
Today’s whisky choice: Gibson’s Finest 12 year old w/ an aromas of spiced oak, creme brûlée for light sweetness & a hint of orange zest. This whisky is well balanced and works well neat or as a mix.
Currently on sale at the LCBO w/ bonus Aeroplan points.

Let’s talk special bottles! I’ve been very curious about this special release & got an opportunity to try it this week.
You can taste it too for a limited time, at the Holt Renfrew (Bloor Street) 3rd-floor pop-up until December 23rd. Complimentary tastings are available Fridays 5–7 PM & Saturdays 1–3 PM
Ok, let’s get into it
Johnnie Walker Blue Label Ice Chalet is a new special release in the Blue collection. This particular bottle, led by master blender Dr Emma Walker, is a blend of rare, highest-quality special whiskies.
The mix includes whiskies distilled in high altitudes of Scotland, during some of the coldest winters, using cold water as a part of the process. The result is fuller body & lovely depth of flavour w/ subtle cacao, roasted nuts, cinnamon-spiced apple & Alpine smoke finishing w/ a velvety mouthfeel.
Among the whiskies used are Clynelish & Dalwhinnie but the most special of them all is the inclusion of a very old whisky from Brora, a ghost distillery that closed in 1983, once it’s gone, it’s gone.
Only 362 bottles of Ice Chalet Blue were made, each bottle is numbered.
The whisky was launched in collaboration w/ a luxury ski-wear brand Perfect Moment & includes a series of Après-ski pieces in matching colours, available in the Perfect Moment webshop. I’m quite a fan of my Merino wool sweater
The puffy bottle case is actually a Perfect Moment cross-body bag – you turn it inside out & ta-da!
