From Medicinal to Magical: The History of Gin
Let’s take a little look at how gin went from medicinal elixir to full-blown gin craze.

From battlefield tonic […]The post From Medicinal to Magical: The History of Gin appeared first on Hush and Whisper Distilling Co .

Ranger to Ranger: The Rhône Rangers
I belong to many wine trade organizations including the Applegate Valley Vintners Association, the Rogue Valley Vintners, and the Oregon Winegrowers Association. I had a similarly long list when I worked in the Napa Valley. Each of these organizations are defined by a place. Then there are the Rhône Rangers . The Rangers diverge from these place-based organizations as the Rhône Rangers are defined by the varieties they grow. To be a Rhône Ranger wine, 75% of the wine’s content must include one or more of the twenty-two traditional Rhône grape varieties as approved by the French government for the wines of the Côtes du Rhône, with Petite Sirah tacked on because of its early contributions in the American wine industry. So the Rhône Rangers are not defined by a place, but by an ideal—a belief in the unique characteristics of these classic Southern French varieties as expressed in American vineyards. The members of the Rhône Rangers span the continent, not an AVA. In this episode of the Wi

Hugh Hamer Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Rum Barrels Review
Introduction For this episode, we’re diving into a unique offering from the Old Hamer line by West Fork Whiskey: Hugh Hamer Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Rum Barrels . Though it shares some DNA with Old Hamer, this expression takes a distinct turn by finishing in rum casks, and we couldn’t resist dubbing it “Huge Hammer” throughout the episode. This bourbon boasts a 99% corn, 1% malted barley mash bill , is aged 4–6 years , and clocks in at 103 proof . The label doesn’t specify what kind of rum barrels are used, which leads us to believe it could be a mix. Regardless, we were excited to see how this high-corn bourbon would hold up with a rum finish. Let’s jump in. Nose Brad: This is a really pleasant nose. There is caramel, there’s maple frosting. It’s got a nice vanilla zest to it. There is a decent amount of like a corn pops vibe—like a really sugary corn cereal that I like a lot. 8/10 Bob: I’m getting a lot of
