Imbibing Mr. Boston: Chocolate Rum Cocktail
If you like thin mints, you’ll like this one. Personally, I would cut the creme de menthe back to a quarter ounce, but that’s just me. If you abhor mint, I’d just substitute another half ounce of creme de cacao for the creme de menthe. Overall, this is definitely a perfect drink for the holiday […]

Whiskey Review: Eagle Rare 17-Year (2024) Bourbon
Introduction For the second time this season, we're reviewing Eagle Rare 17-Year. That alone is wild—after nine seasons of the podcast without ever getting our hands on a bottle, we've now had it twice in one season. Buffalo Trace has somehow let us into their good graces, despite everything Brad has said about them over the years. This is the 2024 edition of Eagle Rare 17, which officially released in fall 2023 as part of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection (BTAC). Earlier this season, we reviewed the 2023 edition, which Brad rated as one of the best whiskeys he’s ever had on the podcast—an astonishing 45.5/50 score. So, this release has a lot to live up to. A few key stats: Age : 17 years, 4 months Proof : 101 (50.5% ABV) Evaporation Loss : 86% (only 14% of the original liquid survived maturation) With all that in mind, let’s dive into the 2024 Eagle Rare 17 and see how it stacks up. This review is taken from our episode " Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood (201

Specialist Retailers Are a Bright Spot for German Wine in the UK
“Where are all the dynamic, characterful wines from Germany?” Bastian Fischer asked in exasperation after 16 years in the UK wine trade. This year he answered that question himself by opening his own shop. Trinkfluss Wines, just outside London, focuses “on some of the most electric, food-friendly, and downright delicious wines anywhere,” in Fischer’s view. His new venture, baptized with the German word for drinkability, quenches the thirst for Germany’s full gamut of varieties. But one swallow doesn’t make a summer. The somms and wine aficionados who shop at specialist wine stores like Fischer’s may have embraced German wines, but...

TOR
Here is the otherworldly Cabernet lineup by TOR. One of the famed Napa houses, TOR was founded by Tor Kenward who formerly spent 26 years building Beringer Vineyards into a national power. As their vice president he was instrumental in helping develop the brand into national prominence before retiring in 2001. I loved the Beringer Reserve wines of the 1990s and 2000s which were some of Napa’s great wines and Tor played a major role in that project. Beringer actually paid for Tor to study viticulture and enology following his retirement, as Tor built his brand as an ultra-premium producer single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons, sourcing from the top blocks within premium sites throughout Napa Valley. This electric lineup sources from famed sites such as Beckstoffer To Kalon, Vine Hill Ranch and Tierra Roja in Oakville, and Melanson on Pritchard Hill. TOR makes some of the finest Chardonnay in the Napa Valley. I adored the thrilling 2024 ‘Cuvee Susan’ (OB, 97) which is up there with the fin
