Today in the SMH print edition of @goodfoodau, Australia’s growing love for sake featuring @sakeshopau, @dejavusake, @supersake.com.au, @sakematsuri and more. 🇯🇵 🍶

Hello Brisbane. 👍

Throwback to a killer ramen episode with these legends and @dassaisake at @gogyo.au. ⠀

Don’t watch Game of Thrones but did thoroughly enjoy sampling this GOT edition @obanwhisky. 🥃

Jared Brown, @sipsmith co-founder and cocktail historian showing off his martini making skills at @thebarbershopsydney last night. 🍸

Saw some more of Margaret River’s beautiful coastline today, thanks to @capementelle. There’s nowhere else like it.

Lovely meal and catchup with @driscoll2343 last night at @santinibarandgrill, with a top drop from @cullenwines.

Huge congratulations to @sullivanscovewhisky, which just won world's best single cask single malt at the World Whiskies Awards 2019. It is the only distiller globally to have won three such accolades, having previously won in 2014 and 2018. How do they do it?

Legent Bourbon arrives in Australia November 1. Check out my @executivestyleau article on this collaboration between @jimbeamofficial and @suntorywhisky here —-> http://www.executivestyle.com.au/suntory-whisky-and-jim-beam-announce-new-spirit-legent-bourbon-h1cwcd

Big news today as @fourpillarsgin announces the sale of a 50% stake to Lion.

Hugely impressed by the @twobaysbeer Pale Ale - the first gluten free beer I have kept coming back to. If I hadn’t been told it was GF I would have just marvelled at how a beer could be so tight and fine and still be so vibrantly hoppy. Tropical aromatics take the lead with dank, green characters adding complexity - everything in its right place. Thanks Two Bays for the sample - you can check out my @executivestyleau yarn here —> http://www.executivestyle.com.au/glutenfree-beer-is-booming-with-multinational-backing-h1cat4

Indie brewers are making inroads at sports stadiums. If you missed my yarn in last week’s @executivestyleau magazine, look out for it online sometime soon. Super cool illustration by @simon_letch.

A real privilege to get the New Jersey experience with @mrjohnholl. Visited a couple of outstanding breweries in @cartonbrewing and @kanebrewing, and tried the local delicacies at this wonderfully authentic diner. The pork roll and disco fries may not photograph too well, but they tasted epic!

‘My love for you is like a truck, Berserker.’

Serving suggestion: Drink several prior to making key decisions. #aussiesontour

In NYC to interview two legends of whisk(e)y: Jim Beam master distiller @frednoe3 and Suntory chief blender Shinji Fukuyo. Watch this space for news of their collaborative bourbon that I am holding. #legentbourbon

New @redhillbrewery branding is looking smart and I really enjoyed their two new cans, thanks Karen for the samples. 🙏 Both vibrantly hoppy and superbly balanced. 👌 🍻

Reflecting on a sensational stay at @parkhoteltokyo. Lovely rooms, as per my previous post. And cool art, not to mention The Society Bar. Lucky I read @davewasabi’s book in time 👍

Now on @executivestyleau, my chat with @jammacrae about the new @ailsabay expression from William Grant & Sons. Also quoted is @kevinabrook, who spoke to @whiskycast.

I was in the Bloody Mary room at the @parkhoteltokyo. #fitting
