I love my whiskies, Cognac, Rum, name it you know any perfectly brewed drink with a rich tradition and culture has my fingers rubbing in glee. Here are just a few favorite drinks of mine which I have had the pleasure of enjoying with friends and family which you can toast to tonight and the whole of 2021.

12-year-old Glenfiddich

The second Our Original Twelve touches your tongue and awaken all your senses than you will forget all the shit 2020 came up with. This Scotch whisky is simply on a league of its own no wonder it remains the world’s most awarded single malt Scotch whisky.

I had a chance to sample this drink in June 2020 when it was unveiled and from the first sip to the last it was smoooooth. It made me forget Corona even existed can you believe it. it simply calms you down and fires up your creativity, passion and zest for life.

By the way the new bottle design features the iconic Stag symbol in gold and sitting within the V of the valley shape. If there’s a drink I am sure I will be drinking more of come 2021 Our Original Twelve is top of my list.

Hennessy Very Special

2020 was a special year no doubt and 2021 promises to be even a more special year with dreams which had been put on hold reignited, businesses which had been closed reopened and life as we knew it slowly going back to normal.

As the clock hits 12:00 and the calendar turns to 1st January 2021, a sip of this 100% Cognac drink will fill you up with courage and determination to make it in 2021.

Johnnie Walker Red Label

Did you know red in Chinese culture symbolizes luck, joy, and happiness? With what 2020 showed us I would say 2021 needs all the luck, joy and happiness it can get and everything good always starts with a drink. C’mon don’t argue with me, ask your grandfather and he will prove me right.

Anyway we are still standing after all we went through in 2020 so we will keep walking and achieve great milestones in 2021, cheers to that.

12-year-old Hankey Bannister Scotch blended whisky

Since it hit the Kenyan markets somewhere in 2019, Hankey Bannister has stood the test of time and continues to warm Kenyan hearts.

This blended scotch whisky prefers doing things in its own style and when you crack open the cap you will get just that. The company do wait sometimes for as long as forty years before cracking open their casks made of Spanish sherry oak to unveil priceless products such as a 1970 Spanish Sherry Hogshead and a 1967 Spanish Sherry cask to all and sundry.

Tullamore Dew Whiskey
