007 Series Ep. 15: The Living Daylights (1987)/Maker's Mark The Lost Recipe Series, Edition 01, 2024

In this 15th episode of my 007 series, I’m shaking (not stirring) things up with The Living Daylights — Timothy Dalton’s explosive debut as James Bond. Is this a return to form or a cold, brooding misfire? Let’s dig into the tone shift, Cold War vibes, and whether Dalton gets the credit he deserves. For the perfect pairing, I’m sipping on Maker’s Mark The Lost Recipe Series: Edition 01 (2024) — a bourbon that revives a historic flavor profile for a modern audience. Just like Dalton's Bond, it’s bold, refined, and cuts through the noise. 🥃🔥If you're a fan of underrated Bonds or limited edition pours, this one’s for you.
