MOP's BOURBON BRUNCH with Graham McTavish and McTavish Spirits!


My Outlander Purgatory Presents a Bourbon Brunch with Graham McTavish and McTavish Spirits!! Join MOP’s Carol and Tracey and their VERY SPECIAL GUEST, Outlander’s own Dougal McKenzie, Graham McTavish!!! We discuss Graham’s newest venture, McTavish Spirits, and its first offering, the Warchief—a 7 year bottled-in-bond bourbon whiskey that receives big thumbs up from both the MOP lasses. Graham explains what led a Scot to want to make Kentucky-style bourbon, schools us in what makes bourbon unique, and gives some drinking tips to bourbon novices (like us!). And we wouldn’t let him get away without a little Outlander talk….what’s in store for season 7, saying goodbye to Outlander, PLUS a possible season 3 of Men in Kilts??? πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™  But that’s not all—the MOP ladies walk you through the fixing for a holiday bourbon-based cocktail, run down what they’ve been up to during Droughtlander, and MUCH MUCH MORE!!

SPECIAL OFFER FOR MOP FANS: 10 percent off the Warchief and McTavish merch!! Just visit mctavishspirits.com and enter the code PURGATORY at checkout!

SPECIAL THANKS to Graham McTavish and Paul Novielli at McTavish Spirits!

Remember Paoli πŸ’”


...the Most Dreadful Scene I Ever beheld.

A British officer reported his impressions:

[General Grey] came to the head of the battalion and cried out "Dash on, light infantry!" and, without saying a word, the whole battalion dashed into the wood, and guided by the straggling fire of the picket, that was followed close up, we entered the camp and gave such a cheer as made the wood echo. The enemy were completely surprised; some with arms, others without, running in all directions in the greatest confusion. The light infantry bayoneted every man they came up with. The camp was immediately set on fire, and this, with the cries of the wounded formed altogether one of the most dreadful scene I ever beheld. Every man that fired was instantly put to death.

Remember Paoli πŸ’”

My first visit to the Paoli Battlefield, despite having grown up in Paoli! 🀦‍♀️
Much Thanks to Herself, Diana Gabaldon for remembering Paoli. ❤️
