Oh mamma, new whiskey store

Okay, maybe not so new. They were down a side street for some time, where I tend not to go and so hadn’t been down for a few years.

Well they’ve got a new store on the main road (just down the road from where U.S. President Woodrow Wilson’s parents lived on Warwick Road).

Looking at their website I noticed they had Teeling Single Grain for a good price (the Single Malt they had for a bit higher than others, but thankfully I prefer the Single Grain).

I had originally intended to just go for a bottle of Teeling Single Grain, however I talked myself into a bottle of Writers Tears.
