After doing my first post in the series, Banter with Bartenders, I came up with a mental list of bartenders that I’d like to interview, but today’s post came about organically. It was a Friday night and I wanted to go out for a cocktail and dinner in […]
In mid-January, we received an email from Dean Hurst, Director of Spirits at Bern’s Steak House in Tampa, Florida. He wanted to know if we were interested in reviewing a blended grain whisky that was specially made for Bern’s Steak House by Compass Box Whisky Company. Given that […]

Once again, I walked out to the mail box and found that the utility companies still want to be paid for services. G-LO on the other hand found two bottles of Bas-Armagnac. I must live on the wrong block, or maybe the postman is a little sweet on […]

This post was supposed to be one of those unboxing videos that are all the rage on YouTube. Here’s an example of a very popular one: That video has been viewed over 63 MILLION TIMES! I should be grateful that two of those views weren’t made by my two […]
