Dee Robinson – A Spirited Conversation
Dee Robinson didn’t set out to change the bourbon industry; she just wanted to make something beautiful and start a few necessary arguments along the way. She sits across from the camera in a soft cream sweater, bejeweled glasses catching the light from a Chicago window where the temperature has plunged to negative 30. Dee…

Reports Suggest Sazerac in Talks With Brown-Forman Following Rumors of Pernod Merger
Weeks after news broke of discussions between Pernod Ricard and Brown-Forman about a potential deal, Sazerac is allegedly throwing its hat in the ring. The Kentucky-based spirits producer Sazerac approached Jack Daniel’s maker Brown-Forman about a deal, sources familiar with the matter confirmed to the Wall Street Journal. Brown-Forman shares spiked following the news of Sazerac’s interest and are up by over 11 percent at the time of publication. A similar jump occurred after reports last month revealed its talks with French spirits supplier Pernod Ricard. The article Reports Suggest Sazerac in Talks With Brown-Forman Following Rumors of Pernod Merger appeared first on VinePair .

Sonora: A Texas Story Worth Protecting
I’ve always loved how Texas teaches you patience. Out here, the land works on its own timeline. You can’t hurry limestone. You can’t hurry oak. And you sure can’t hurry a bourbon that’s going to be worth pouring. We make bourbon in Hye, Texas, but our gratitude has always extended beyond our fences. Garrison Brothers […]

Revisited: Woodinville Straight Bourbon
I’d like to thank Woodinville Whiskey for sending this review sample with no strings attached. It has been thirteen hundred, thirty-nine days since I last look a look at Woodinville Whiskey . It was the first time that I’d had one of their whiskeys, and it certainly wasn’t the last. Since that time, we’ve looked at a number of their products and liked most of them quite a bit. However, I hadn’t picked up the original bourbon again for a while. So I was very excited when they sent me this bottle in order to promote their recent bottle redesign and new 6-year age statement. God, I love age statements showing up. And it really is a lovely bottle. And since that new bottle was the entire reason I got to take another look at it, I should probably let them tell you a little about it. Woodinville's updated bottle pays homage to the traditional shape that has become synonymous with Woodinville but has been refined to reflect the ultra-premium liquid they produce. The bottle features two differ

Review: Angel’s Envy Cask Strength Rye 10 Years Old (2026)

DOC Costa degli Dei: il racconto della nuova denominazione calabrese
La DOC Costa degli Dei sceglie Roma per raccontarsi con un’idea semplice e, proprio per questo, ambiziosa: trasformare un nome evocativo in un’identità enologica leggibile, coerente e condivisa. Da un lato, la cena evento da Bencò nel quartiere Prati; dall’altro, la presenza a Beviamoci Sud nelle sale del Westin Excelsior. Due momenti diversi, quindi, ma […] The post DOC Costa degli Dei: il racconto della nuova denominazione calabrese appeared first on Decanto - Giornale di vino | Migliori vini e cantine da visitare .

Cantina Zaccagnini Montepulciano d’Abruzzo
