Whiskey Cocktails To Welcome Fall
24 Sep 2020 by Jose Eledra in Cuisine, Decorating, General, Home, Pleasure, Products, Spirits
Fall is officially here, which means colder weather, cozy sweaters, and pumpkin-flavored goodies- it marks the start of whiskey drinking season. It’s the perfect time for tasty cocktails from Knob Creek Bourbon and Basil Hayden’s Bourbon that are ideal for the coming months. You’ll want to sip one (or both) of these while you snuggle up by the fire all season long.
