(Published by The Rye Whiskey Review)
a sacrament untitled
well the bottle does have a label
so let us just call it a necessary evil
be it a middle shelf offering
lacking character or depth
still respectable and getting the job done
or perhaps it is a monthly splurge
a bottle that gets its accolades
and love from communities online
with a plethora of pictures and reviews
maybe even a bottom shelf throwaway
with a screw top that gets overlooked
that still has some bite to give
or god forbid
the unicorn
the bottle that most strive for
but only a few get to experience
one that cost way too much retail
not to mention the secondary market
a love affair with a liquid
sad to some
forbidden to certain groups
an occasion to others
essential for a few
whatever it is to you
I’ll drink to that
