Benriach 1996 / Glen Keith 1993 (Whisky Dreamers)
The Whisky Dreamers keep a steady pace. In September we heard of them for the first time and now they already have a third batch of whiskies. Always from the most exclusive corners of the Malts of Scotland warehouse. Currently on offer: Glen Keith 1993 and Benriach 1996. Glen Keith 32 yo 1993 (44,6%, Malts of Scotland 'Rare Casks' for Whisky Dreamers 2026, bourbon barrel, 158 btl.) Nose: a very fine fruitbomb, full of peaches, nectarines, gooseberries and green mango. A lot of honey and warm waxy notes, along with some honeysuckle and vanilla cake. Almond oil. Over time it also shows a grassier note and mild white blossoms, adding a sense of vinho verde to it. Mouth: even better than expected. Totally exuberant fruits, Bushmills style. We have pineapple, mango, papaya and hints of lime juice. Very juicy, who dropped the vitamin tablet? Later also creamy vanilla and a drop of calvados, as well as greener notes like mint leaves and eucalyptus. Finish: quite long, now getting citrus

3 Nations notches another win at 2026 World Beer Cup
Image credit: Brewers Association. Tonight in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, winners were announced at the 2026 World Beer Cup (WBC). While the WBC hasn't always been a yearly event (annual competitions began in 2022), this was the 30th anniversary of the first WBC, which took place in 1996. Over that period, 24 beers brewed in North Texas have been recognized as being among the best in the world. For 2026, in a repeat of last year's result, 3 Nations Brewing Co. of Carrollton was the lone North Texas honoree, taking a bronze for its year-round Mexican lager, Texian. It's the third overall WBC award for 3 Nations, having previously won medals at the 2022 and 2025 competitions. Competition Statistics: 8,166 beers judged based on entries sent by 1,644 breweries and cideries representing 50 countries worldwide. For a historical comparison, 600 entries were submitted by 250 participating breweries in 1996. 356 medals awarded across 119 style categories covering craft beer (114) and cider (5).

Above the Curve Vineyard
Cindy & Mike Jacobsen of Above the Curve Vineyard Photos Courtesy of Above the Curve Mike and Cindy Jacobsen were school psychologists active in assessment in 6 different school districts on the Seattle side of Washington state. On Friday afternoons, they would go to wine tastings at their local QFC grocery store. Just as they were retiring, the Somm running the tastings decided to open a wine shop and bar in Enumclaw and was looking for investors. Mike and Cindy ended up investing and working in the wine shop. They sometimes went wine tasting in the Prosser area, and fell in love with the community. It wasn’t long before they purchased their dream property with a vineyard and right close to the Yakima River. It took two years for their house to be built, so they regularly came with their RV so they could monitor the house progress and work on the vineyard. Their property located between Prosser and Benton City contained some of the

Frey Ranch Farm Strength Uncut Rye
I’d like to thank the folks at Frey Ranch Distillery and their PR team for providing this bottle with no strings attached. Now, I don’t know about you, but I seldom think of farming and Nevada in the same sentence. Mostly because I’ve really only been to the areas that tourists go to. I’ve been to Vegas, visited nature in the area, and driven through Northern Nevada on I-80 a couple of times. And honestly, I never thought about grain farming as I drove through. But apparently I should have. Just over the southern horizon (poetically speaking) from I-80 lives a small town named Fallon. And when you look for Fallon on a satellite view, you notice one thing quite clearly: there is a lot of green on that image. More than my brief visits to the state would have ever led me to believe. I must not be the only one with those thoughts, as the press release spends a few words explaining just that: Using his own slow-grown grains that take Northern Nevada’s climate, topography, and terroir into a

GSN Review: Full Bore Peanut Butter & Jalapeno Flavored Whiskey
We normally don’t review gimmicky products here at GSN, but this one happened to land in our hands this past weekend. Yes, it looks like a cannon shell or perhaps an oversized bullet. The idea of peanut butter and jalapenos was a new one to us, but apparently it is a big deal in Texas […]

GSN Review: Agwa de Bolivia Coca Leaf Liqueur
I’m honestly surprised it’s taken this long for a coca leaf spirit to make a debut. After all, coca was used in the world’s most popular soft drink, and energy drinks are all the rage. Agwa is not 100% coca but also includes dozens of other herbs. So, in a way, it’s very much in […]

Tenute Perda Rubia: l’anima profonda dell’Ogliastra
Il recente spunto critico offerto dal professor Michele Antonio Fino sul Gambero Rosso solleva una riflessione preziosa sulla comunicazione odierna: la crisi del vino potrebbe essere, in parte, una questione di parole.

Laurent-Perrier
Here is the absolutely mesmerizing 27. iteration of ‘Grand Siecle’ by Laurent-Perrier. Today it is my pleasure to share renowned champagne producer, Laurent-Perrier which was established in 1812. Located in the heart of Champagne, in Tours-sur-Marne, vines are set on limestone soil, highly chalky and showing the distinctiveness of the region. The chalk subsoil holds sufficient water, during dry spells and due its porous nature also provides good drainage when it is wet to prevent roots of becoming water logged, acting a bit like a sponge. Laurent-Perrier produces a beautiful range of champagnes including one of the world’s most popular Rose champagnes. I adored the new NV Laurent-Perrier Brut Rose Champagne (OB, 93) which is so delicious to enjoy now. One with good aging potential is the 2015 Laurent-Perrier Brut Champagne (OB, 94) which is dense and delicious stuff with serious weight from this slightly warmer vintage.

Robert Biale
Here is the sensational new lineup of 2024 Zins by Robert Biale. It is my pleasure to bring you one of California Zinfandel producers. The story of Robert Biale is an inspired history that utilizes some of the oldest Zinfandel sites in the area, producing wines with good ripeness but overall a focus on poise, flavor and aromatic range. These are wines that are well-structured and bring a great sense of place. At the helm is David Natali. A New York native, David graduated from Georgetown’s School of Foreign Service and developed a passion for winemaking after bottling at a friend’s small winery. He formerly served as cellar hand at Clos Pegase Winery and later studied at the University of Montpellier in France, where he received his master’s degree in Viticulture and Enology. After two and a half years of living and studying abroad in Montpellier, France, and Udine, Italy, David returned to California. He became the Assistant Winemaker for La Rochelle Winery, later taking the Assistant
