We’re no strangers to Suntory’s Hibiki range of blended Japanese whiskies. For several years, their 12 year old expression was the only game in town, but then in mid 2014, they unleashed their 17 and 21 year old expressions on the American market. All three are beautifully made […]
This year’s summer vacation was spent just outside Smoky Mountain National Park (we also spent a night in Nashville, but that’s the subject of another not yet written blog post). On night number one of our vacation, after getting the wife and kids settled in to our cabin with […]
When the #WhiskyFabric speaks, we listen! Below is a press release from our friend, Allison Patel, announcing the birth of her newest baby, Brenne Ten… Brenne® French Single Malt Whisky Releases BRENNE TEN to Immediate Acclaim and Awards Brenne® unveils its first age-statement whisky, already named #2 World’s […]

As most of you are well aware, we are big fans of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society of America, and have attended the last seven Fall Extravaganza events in Philadelphia, Spring Extravaganza event in New York in May of 2012, and the Fall Extravaganza event in LA in November of 2014. […]
Heaven Hill’s Pikesville Straight Rye is the second whiskey that Limpd and I sampled on that fateful night in mid-August when I once again darkened his door with my bag o’whiskey in hand (given my rather average stature, it’s amazing that I can darken any door. Or maybe […]
I’ve heard of Calvados. I’ve read about Calvados. But I’ve never actually tasted Calvados. That all changed when I attended a Calvados tasting that was led by Jason Wilson (he wrote Boozehound), a man that absolutely adores Calvados. How do I know that Mr. Wilson adores Calvados? That’s […]
