Have you ordered your #SSAC2024?
With the Canada Post strike, you might be waiting, but I’d place the order so the minute the strike is over #hingstonandolsen can get it ready.

A photograph of a Glencairn glass of whisky, next to a small bottle labeled The Whiskymaker's Reserve No. 7, Single Malt English Whisky. Both are next to a small pile of Pastéis de Nata tarts, with molds for making the tarts in the background.
Penultimate day of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 is another English whisky, and a short story about a not-so-typical family reunion.

Day 21 of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 is a clever bit about needs and wants on a few fronts, and a 10-year-old Glengoyne single malt.

Nostalgia lay behind door 20 of the #whiskyadvent calendar today, while #SSAC2023 was s brief read called "The Skull", by Leopoldine Core.

A photograph of fingertips holding a Glencairn glass of whisky in front of a carved wooden mantel in the background. The "legs" of the whisky are visible on the glass.
#whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 day 18 brings another repeat previously seen last year and in 2020, and a bit of a horror story.

Day 17 of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 was a very welcome repeat from last year's calendar, and Sara Lippman's short story "Swanee".

A photograph of a man's legs in blue jeans and hiking boots, resting on a porch rail. A Glencairn glass with a bit of orange-y whiskey in itand a small bottle labeled "Drinks by the Dram Johnny Walker Gold Label Reserve" is also on the porch rail, with sunset colors in the sky beyond. The man is reading the Day 16 story from the Hingston and Olsen 2023 Short Story Advent calendar, "The Kit-Bag", by Algernon Blackwood, and the title and first page are visible.
Day 16 of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 was a good day for a porch whisky.

A photograph of a Glencairn glass with a bit of orange-y whiskey in it, with the Day 15 story from the Hingston and Olsen 2023 Short Story Advent calendar to its right and a small bottle labeled "Drinks by the Dram The Glenlivet 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky" on its left, all sitting on top of a stone wall in late afternoon sun. The light is shining through the glass, spilling a shadow with a bright core the color of the whisky onto the stone.
Took advantage of being home during daylight to shoot day 15's #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 photo today, with a well-known Speyside whisky from one calendar and a short story from Deb Olin Unferth from the other.

A photograph of a Glencairn glass with a bit of tawny whiskey in it, centered on a long, narrow wooden tray extending behind it. In front of the glass is the Day 14 story from the Hingston and Olsen 2023 Short Story Advent calendar. The light in the photo comes from behind.
Another late return from the office on Day 14 of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023. A wee dram and a short story once again help relax after the commute, this time from Eden Mill and Paul Cresey, respectively.

A photograph of a rocks glass with a bit of neat whiskey in it on the left, next to the Day 13 story from the Hingston and Olsen 2023 Short Story Advent calendar on the right. Both are sitting atop a laminated bamboo surface.
Got home ridonkulously late on Day 13 of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023, but a nice dram from Teeling and a brief, absurdist tale from Melissa Broder were a nice way to unwind.

A photograph of a Glencairn glass of copper-red-colored whisky, edge-lit against a dark background. "Merry Christmas" is reflected in the glass.
Day 12 of #whiskyadvent was an outstanding tipple from Bushmills, and #SSAC2023's day 12 story of, I suppose, a failed break with the past, comes from Hilma Wolitzer.

A photograph of the Day 10 entry in the Hingston and Olsen Short Story Advent calendar, next to a Glencairn glass of copper-colored whisky and a small whisky bottle on the right. The bottle is labeled "Drinks by the Dram Gulliver's 47 Pedro Ximenez Sherry Casks". Everything sits atop a round wooden table showing the grain of log it was cut from. The backdrop is out-of-focus white Christmas lights.
Door 11 of the #whiskyadvent calendar opened on a tasty PX cask English whisky, and #SSAC2023 day 11 is a short story-not-story by Alexander Weinstein.

A photograph of a glass of whiskey on a dark wooden side table next to the arm of a pale gold chair, with the small whiskey bottle to its left. The bottle is labeled "Egans Irish Whiskey Conviction". Behind the class is the Day 10 entry in the Hingston and Olsen Short Story Advent calendar, with a pair of reading glasses atop the story. The backdrop of the scene is a fire burning in a fireplace.
Day 10 of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 brings another solid Irish whiskey, and a sad short story of a woman paralyzed by the fallout from one bad decision.

A photograph of a cutting mat, with assorted tools including a paste brush, utility knife, metal ruler, and some greyboard. A Glencairn glass of whisky is centered in the scene, with a small bottle labeled "Drinks by the Dram" Glenfiddich 21 Year Old Gran Reserva Single Malt Scotch Whisky" behind it. The Day 9 story from the Hingston and Olsen short story advent calendar sits atop the greyboard.
Day 9 of #whiskyadvent/#SSAC2023 and we get another (lovely) repeated dram, and Jade Song's story "Cosmic Cul-de-Sac".
