Whiskey Review: Willett Pot Still Reserve Bourbon
Introduction Today we’re reviewing a whiskey with a bit of a reputation: Willett Pot Still Reserve Bourbon . This bottle has become something of a polarizing figure in the whiskey world—some folks love it, others can’t stand it. Willett first launched this bourbon in 2008 , initially as a single barrel release . By 2011, they quietly changed it to a small batch , with batches capped at 12 barrels. For years, this was sourced whiskey—most assumed it came from Heaven Hill. But as of 2024, we can confirm that it’s now 100% distilled by Willett , using a pot still as the name and iconic bottle suggest. The whiskey clocks in at 94 proof , and while the mash bill isn’t disclosed , it’s believed to be Willett’s weeded bourbon recipe . No age statement appears on the bottle, and prices hover around $57 , depending on your state. This whiskey has been off our radar for years, so we were eager to revisit it with fresh eyes—and fresh palates.

Whiskey Review: Heaven’s Door Revival Tennessee Bourbon
Introduction Today we’re checking out Heaven’s Door Revival Tennessee Straight Bourbon Whiskey —our first time reviewing anything from the Heaven’s Door label. If the name sounds familiar, that’s because this is the Bob Dylan-endorsed whiskey line , named after his iconic song “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door.” Brad pointed out that thematically, this might be the most appropriate whiskey pairing we’ve ever done for a movie with this high a body count. We couldn’t resist. This particular release is Tennessee straight bourbon , aged a minimum of six years . It’s 92 proof (46% ABV) and was sourced from a single-story rickhouse , where cooler temperatures keep aging conditions more stable. The barrels are batched and proofed down before bottling. Our sample came from friend-of-the-show Zach Johnston , who originally reviewed it for Uproxx. We had to do some sleuthing to confirm the exact expression, but we’re confiden

Stop Drinking Porn Star Martinis (Try These 3 Instead)
The Porn Star Martini is one of the most popular vodka cocktails in the world — and for good reason. It’s fruity, smooth, slightly indulgent, and when made properly, seriously well balanced.

In this video, I start with the classic Porn Star Martini recipe , showing you how to make it properly using vanilla vodka, passion fruit, and fresh citrus.

Coconut Rum Cocktails; 5 EASY Recipes (Better than Malibu)
Coconut rum has a bit of a reputation. For some people, it’s beach holidays and good times. For others, it’s overly sweet, one-dimensional, and only good for one kind of drink.

We’ve been conditioned to follow the same social script for decades: drinking to fit in during high school, partying through college, and eventually joining the "wine mom" groups or social circles in our 30s and 40s. We tell ourselves it’s just part of the lifestyle, but eventually, the mirror tells a different story.

(S)NO(W) JOKE
This week, Kay has been in France skiing with her husband and in-laws. They had return flights to Geneva and hired a car to drive over the border to France. There were six of them - Kay, Darcy, Darcy's parents, Darcy's sister and her boyfriend. The boyfriend is an excellent skier and has been teaching everyone else, first on the nursery slopes and then graduating to the steeper more complicated ones. Kay did some skiing in France with her school when she was about 14, but to be fair that was a long time ago, so she needed some refreshing. To start with it was good news coming in and an amazing video of Kay doing a ten-minute ski down a very steep slope. Unfortunately it coincided with the news that the US Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn had had a terrible accident doing her Olympic downhill ski-racing and was airlifted to hospital with multiple leg fractures. The next day Kay texted me to say she was having a coffee in a cafe as she had taken a few tumbles
