There have been lots of discussions about guitars we have loved but no longer own.

I think a similar topic on single malts would be truly heartbreaking

I have to admit, I was hating on NMD. Restaurant and bar lines were insane. I just wanted a quick meal with friends!

I didn't know either until I was driving and listened to Margaritaville on SiriusXM. An additional benefit was a bartender at one of the restaurants made their signature drink giving the exact ingredients and portions mixing it on the air.
