The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Like a Glutton I Crave For Thee

Ye who walks the heavens and earth his sayings are about come to pass in me: I love thee more…, or should I in a more approved manner say, I love thee quite close to myself Maybe far too close for solace, but I love thee so good, good as curried goat and white rice cooked in coconut milk I love thee so good, as good as sex with a clean woman Misery from my present flee because thou art my rejoicing My hands brought forth the things inside, possessions thou gavest me I love thee quite close to myself Maybe far too close for solace, but I love thee so sweet, sweet as sugar cane I love thee so sweet, sweet as honey mango Like blue drawers and peanut porridge I love thee
