If you’re a regular reader, then you’ll immediately recognize this cocktail, which was featured in our review of El Guapo Bitters and Syrups. It’s called The Oaxacan Old Fashioned and it was inspired by a cocktail with the same name that we sampled at a local bar called […]
Way back in May of 2018, we attended a John Milroy Selections tasting at The Union League of Philadelphia which was hosted by The Whisky Sisters (aka Lauren Shayne-Mayer and Gabby Shayne) of Spirit Imports. At this event, we were given the opportunity to sample several expressions from […]
Like many a post-war baby (that war would be World War II, The Big One, WW2, or as it’s commonly known, Tom Brokaw’s retirement fund), I was introduced to Tiki culture at… a Chinese restaurant. During the 1960s and 1970s, Yue’s Cantonese Restaurant in Gardena, CA was […]
On Thanksgiving Day Eve (aka this past Wednesday night), Limpd and I recorded two new episodes of “A Tasting at the Murder Table“. The first episode features a review of two different New Holland Brewing Dragon’s Milk expressions, while the second episode features the chocolate cream liqueur that […]
Way back in late August of 2017, Mrs. G-LO, The Boys, and I experienced some of the most bizarre and breathtakingly beautiful terrain that we have ever seen, in the place that they call Yellowstone National Park. During our travels in Western Wyoming, we… Got frighteningly close to […]

But every once in awhile, something sneaks through that doesn’t immediately get flushed into a virtual American Standard 1.28 gpf commode. Last […]
Way back in December of 2017, Limpd, @SamSpeers (of Twitter and #WhiskyFabric fame), and Yours Truly took part in a WhiskyCast Tasting Panel with none other than Mr. WhiskyCast himself, Mark Gillespie. During this pre-Christmas tasting, we sampled three whiskies: Oban 14; The Glenburgie 15 from the Ballantine’s […]
Once again, my generous neighbor and drinking task-master darkened my doorstep. In his hands were a number of samples that MUST be reviewed (his words, not mine. Can’t I just drink, savor, and NOT be REQUIRED to take notes every once in a while? Work! Work! Work! That’s […]
Earlier this summer, the folks at Flaviar asked if we were interested in reviewing a “crowdsourced” Cognac. Yep, you read that right. A “crowdsourced” Cognac.
