Very Special Old Fitzgerald 12 year-old straight bourbon whiskey
Had I walked into a liquor store and seen Old Fitzgerald I am not sure it would have been a bottle I would have picked up or even glanced at. A friend of my boyfriend introduced me to Old Fitzgerald 12, and even when he showed us the bottle I didn’t think much of it….
WhistlePig 11 year-old Straight Rye TripleOne Whiskey
My introduction to WhistlePig was about a year ago with their 10 year-old whiskey and I searched high and low to get that one bottle. It took me a while to find a bottle because the product was extremely popular, but the search was definitely well worth it. To this day, I have a bottle…
Apple Cider Whiskey (Angel’s Envy)/Rum (Twenty Boat) Cocktail (Video Blog)
Happy Halloween! If I haven’t mentioned this before, Halloween is my favorite holiday of the year. This year I wanted to do a video blog with a cocktail easy enough to be feature at any Halloween party. I used Angel’s Envy as the whiskey and Twenty Boat Amber for the rum 1st batch. I had…
Triple Smoke – Corsair Distillery
What does the way you walk say about you? To be honest, I have no idea what my walk says about me, but if a study was done on the way the three guys on the Triple Smoke bottle walked, I bet it would say that those guys are pretty cool dudes. I’ll be honest;…
Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey
Not too long ago my friends Laura and Anthony held a party to celebrate Laura’s big 3-0. It was at this party that I first discovered Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey. The bottle belonged to Mike, a friend of Laura and Anthony, and I immediately gravitated towards it as we walked into the party. We all know…
Pappy Meal – Old Rip Van Winkle 10 year
I felt like a kid in a candy store when I first walked into Citizen Public House for their Pappy Meal Monday. It is moments like these that remind me of one of the reasons why I started this blog, and that was to have fun. You better believe that I had fun with this…
Eagle Rare 17 year Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
A week ago we found ourselves again, sitting on a bar stool at the Last Hurrah when we realized that we had always just gone there for their single malt list and never their bourbon. We asked Frank if he had any good bourbons and he laughed at us. He then came back with a…
Elijah Craig 21 year-old
The minute the bartender said she had 21 year-old bourbon I was sold. I don’t have bourbon this old often, so I had to have it. This was my first introduction to the 21 year-old Elijah Craig and I was certainly happy to make its acquaintance. Since having a dram I have learned that this…
Wild Turkey Spiced Bourbon
This upcoming Memorial Day weekend marks the last day of spring turkey hunting season. Now I am assuming that you wouldn’t know that unless you are hunter and no, I am not a hunter. I only know this because my boyfriend sent me a text message saying that it was fitting we drank Wild Turkey…
Hudson Whiskey – Manhattan Rye
Since prohibition, Hudson Whiskey is the first whiskey distillery to open its doors in New York. Although Tuthilltown Gristmill was initially purchased in 2001 to serve as a rock climber’s ranch it was whiskey that later came out of there a few years later. One of the first things that captured me about Hudson Whiskey…
Angel’s Envy Kentucky Straight Whiskey
Happy first day of spring! Lucky for us, it supposed to hit mid-50 today. Yes I am extremely happy about that, this Caribbean born gal is definitely looking forward to some nicer warm weather. The thought of warm weather makes me smile as much as the thought of an Angel’s Share when it comes to…
