The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

The Spirit

Return it unbroken
And I'll give you the key
To what's lost and unmended
And no longer free

From a spirit that once soared
Now a bird in a cage
That sings for it's freedom
It's dreams locked away

And what seems out of reach
Is close to the touch
With the hand, not the heart
You can't hold half as much
