Happy St. Paddy’s Day!
Celebrate your inner Irish. On a day when even our most Scottish of locals, like KWM‘s Andrew Ferguson, have taken to the green…why the hell not?
All indications point to our friends in Ireland as the true originators of the distillate we all so love, so in honor of All Things Irish…raise a glass of Bushmills…Jamesons…Redbreast…Connemara…whatever. Throw on a little Pogues…Dubliners…Primordial…Flogging Molly…again…whatever. Either way…we’re all Irish today.
Now…if you’re short of anything to sip from the Emerald Isle, take a swing by the aforementioned Kensington Wine Market and have a chat with IiT (Irish in Training), Andrew Ferguson, or one of his team. They’ll steer ye right.
…and yes…that happy little leprechaun is none other than Mr. Ferguson.
Love the decor, Andrew. Switching allegiances?
Before anyone asks…no, I am not switching allegiances. I stand behind the old maxim: ‘the Irish may have invented it, but the Scottish perfected it’.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, friends!

The Scottish may have perfected it, but the Indians seem to have taken it to a new level…
