When The West Coast Office first asked if we were interested in trying Whip Shots, a vodka infused whipped cream, we were equal parts skeptical and intrigued. A boozy non-dairy whipped cream? This was gonna be great. Or it was gonna be awful. No middle ground! No half […]
On today’s episode of A Tasting at The Murder Table, we’re sampling a whisky from a brand whose history goes way back to 1753 in Pennsylvania. Michter’s is the brand, and their Kentucky Straight Bourbon is what we’re sampling. Here’s what Michter’s has to say about this whiskey […]
