June 24: World UFO Day
It's World UFO Day. June 24th was chosen because on this day in 1947, aviator Kenneth Arnold witnessed nine unidentified flying objects performing acrobatic stunts near Mt. Rainier. For the first time, such an event would be widely reported, and the UFO spotting craze was on. So, is there a link between UFO sightings and drinking? There may be. According to a 2014 report which examined the 90,000 reported UFO sightings in the last 40 years, they tended to spike on Fridays during what we'll call "The Drinking Hours." The study tries to suggest that imbibing makes people hallucinate, which as any experienced drinker knows, is nonsense. What's much more likely is that after a few drinks, as we lift ourselves out of our workaday shells and raise our eyes upward and outward, we become more open-minded and sensitive to data that our straight-jacketed sober minds would suppress with rigid doubt and disbelief. So keep your eyes skyward, drunkards!

videoIt’s Chenin Blanc Time!
Chenin Blanc is the world's most underappreciated grape variety. Today's video covers three outstanding Chenin Blancs from three different countries; all are reasonably priced, with good availability. Also, a fourth bottle from my cellar: a rare Vouvray that is over twenty-five years old. Chenin Blanc has been cultivated for over 1,000 years, with origins in the Loire Valley of northern France. Along with France, South Africa is another leader in Chenin Blanc, but it's also grown in many other countries worldwide. It's one of a limited number of grape varieties that retain acidity as they ripen, making them a good candidate for everything from completely dry to dessert-style wines, including sparkling wines. Occasionally, it'll be used in a blend. When it's grown in the right places and given the proper level of care, it's a recipe for good things to occur. Let's get into the tasting. The first three wines were all picked up at Total Wine, but they are available through other retailer

Columbia Creek Tennessee Whiskey
I’d like to thank Columbia Creek and their PR partners for providing this sample with no strings attached. The sun is coming out here in Minnesota. The snow is melted, or at least it was. We are in that time of year where you don't know if you need to shovel the driveway or if you can sit on the deck in shorts. And no, I don't mean you folks from more southern climates. In Minnesota, it isn't unusual for folks to be in shorts as soon as the temp hits the 50s in the spring. And by "folks" I mean me. Of course, I tend to wear shorts all year long. I'm not going to let a little thing like the outside weather keep me from being comfortable in my house. That's what blankets are for. I'm stubborn like that. Which leads me nicely to tonight's whiskey. Columbia Creek Tennessee Whiskey is a sourced whiskey out of Columbia, Tennessee, which the press release says is "where mules outnumber stoplights and pride runs as deep as the creeks." They also use the mule as a mascot on the bottle. The comp
