As the back of the bottle reads, “Abuelo 7 Años is a rich blend of superb rums; aged for 7 years in carefully selected, small oak barrels.” The process of creating a rum is always intriguing but there is one part of the distillation process I enjoy most of all: drinking.
The Lash, a spiced rum with some aroma of cinnamon and spices. Nothing like sitting outside gathering in some of the suns rays while sipping on a spicy new rum brand
A spiced rum like this would definitely pair well with the sweetness of Coca Cola or used in a spiced rum recipe in which the cinnamon will work well (probably a cocktail without cinnamon schnapps.)

We’ll sit down and review Twenty 2 Vodka, a small batch vodka distilled in Maine, USA. Can it meet our high expectations for a neutral grained spirit?
Vesica Potato Vodka, triple distilled, clear and very much a nice looking bottle of vodka. It’s triple distilled, which means to me that it might have a bit more taste as it’s the hardcore five-times distilled vodka I’m used to tasting. So, I’m going to predict a less smooth yet more flavorful product.
The pear; it’s one of my favorite fruits in the world. I have grown three pear trees in my front yard and harvest the pears each season to create some of the most naturally juicy fruit I’ve never had. I’ve got experience with the fruit and I’ve got my hands on some Xanté Pear Liqueur, supposedly one of the most sexy and sensual liqueurs you can find.
American Gin, what’s the difference between a gin made in America and the long understood London Dry version? We’ve noticed a lot more citrus aroma’s in these gins compared to other London styles, but it doesn’t end there! Which do we like the best?
While I have yet to compose my thoughts to virtual paper, I thought it would be fun to do an on-the-spot “unboxing” review of Xanté Pear Liqueur which arrived late last week for review. The Xanté product was recently introduced in the United States after having been on the market in Europe for 10-years. Xanté [...]
I’m doing a flight of godiva chocolate liqueurs tonight, including Mocha, Caramel, Chocolate and White Chocolate. Some are awesome, some are good and so on and so forth. Do you have a favorite Godiva Chocolate Liqueur?
We’re mixing the Barn Door #2 with five types of blended scotch whisky: Johnnie Walker Black Label, Chivas Regal, Dewar’s “White Label,” Cutty Sark and Scoresby’s Very Rare. The recipe brings a bit of orange while maintaining enough of the blended scotch whisky to make it possible to find the differences.
