So, from the last several posts I take it the alcohol industry is like the watch industry....swatch group, richmomt, etc. Several diff labels under one company?
If you dig scotch you might have a go at Armagnac, also single distilled spirit so you get a lot of the oily richness and it鈥檚 a bargain. Started exploring last year and have really been enjoying it. Pairs well with vintage watches
Little wine shop in the Paris 7th turned me on to vintage Armagnac. They have shelves upon shelves of wonderfully dusty bottles. I have four really old bottles that, since I鈥檝e not been back since 2016, I鈥檓 nursing. Fortunately my local Binny鈥檚 maintains a nice supply of old blends. I鈥檝e learned not to bring these to sailing parties because it vanishes instantly. It鈥檚 rich and grapy and a bit sharper than congnac but I agree it was a revelation. I jumped into the deep end of the pool with the vintage stuff but a nice bottle can be found for under $50.
I suppose this is another thread I can dabble in. Maybe learn a thing or 2 about brown alcohol that isn't beer.
I like wine...reds only (sucker for decent bottle of Caymus). As for beer I'm a snob but not picky (will still gladly drink a PBR), however I do love a good IPA (Cigar City Jai Alai, for example, from a local brewery). Also a bit of a coffee snob.
I happen to have this at work today for a co-worker. Strawberry moonshine...
He brought in some blueberry he made himself so I decided to bring this in for him to sample...and at 11:20AM it is close to sampling time!
I did not make it, it was given to me.
Cigar City Jai Ali is a go to when we are in Fla! Delicious!
