Old bourbon has always been a mystery to me. The real and not-so real stories of its American roots from the days of Independence to the Industrial Revolution seemed to always read like a history textbook from an author who had swallowed all the passed down lore (and […]
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 […]
A few weeks ago, while I was sweltering in the stands at a 7U baseball tournament, G-LO was living large at Pour-A-Palooza. Normally, I would insert some sort of snarky comment contrasting my exemplary parenting skills (I was staked out in the hot sun, all for a wee […]
The honorable G-LO-san and I recently experienced the serenity and harmony that is a well known Japanese whisky. Once the musing started, we found ourselves immersed in tranquility as we became one with nature and its beauty in a glass of the “water of life”. Then the kids […]
About four weeks ago, the G-LO Clan attended a college graduation party for the daughter of our good friend Rob. About ten minutes after our arrival, Rob says to me, “Let’s take a walk. I have some whiskey that I’d like you to try.” I of course obliged Rob’s […]

HR thinks that the Booze Dancing staff […]
Although I own a ” square foot of Islay“, I have never actually set foot on the island to visit my minuscule plot of land, but thanks to the multimedia rich world in which we live, you don’t actually have to visit a place to get a feel […]
As they say in the movie business, Whisky Jewbilee 2015 is “in the can”. Done. Finito. History. There have been four of them. We’ve been to three of them, and they get better and better every year. This year was extra special, because in addition to sampling some […]
The other day, G-LO opened some recently received boozemail and discovered samples of two different whiskies from Crown Royal. He tackled the Northern Harvest Rye review and I took on the Hand Selected Barrel review. Over the years, we have reviewed the XR, the Maple, the XO, the Monarch 75th […]
As you’re well aware, we like a wide variety of whisky in Booze Dancing country. We don’t care about mash bill, country of origin, or how old it is. Barrel management and storage conditions are also irrelevant. Let me rephrase… All of this whisky geekery is important and […]
