On May 8, 2014, Miracle Max and I attended an event in New York called “The Art of Hibiki. A Blend of 24 Seasons”, the official launch of Hibiki 17 and Hibiki 21 in the United States. Much like last year’s Suntory 90th Anniversary event at the Noguchi […]
While I am far from a rum expert, there is no denying that rum has played a sizable role as part of my “adult beverage” education. Here are just a few of the highlights… Summer 1984 – Three of my closest friends and I decided that we would […]
Two Saturdays ago, Mrs. G-LO was in an unusually decisive mood and informed me that I would be making a fennel salad and grilled chicken for dinner. Since the weather was pretty close to perfect, I happily fired up the grill and broke out the kitchen tools to […]
You know how I know I’m old? Because I’m 47 years old and this is my first time drinking Fireball Cinnamon Whisky! There has been so much talk about this stuff amongst the whisky blogerati (most of them had bad things to say about it) that I just […]
