Thank You, Cow — Burgers and Liberty at Humbug, Manchester
Maraschino was a 31 month-old native breed Red Poll cow reared by Helan Arthan in Malpas, Cheshire. After landing on the block of Marcus Wilson at Littlewoods Butchers in Heaton Chapel, Stockport, her final destiny is to become approximately 1200 burgers that will be served at Humbug, a month long burger pop-up at Kampus in central Manchester. The project is the brainchild of Sam Buckley, chef-patron at Where The Light Gets In (WTLGI), a fine dining restaurant in Stockport town centre that was awarded a Michelin green star for its sustainability efforts in 2021. I have dined there once, and the meal and service I received was, honestly, transcendent. I am constantly puzzled why a full star still eludes it – not that it really matters, as its reputation precedes it. Don’t try and book yourself in right at this moment, however, as the restaurant is closed for refurbishments until April. Hence why it has taken up residence in the Bungalow at Kampus, juxtaposed alongside the Rochdale

Whiskey Review: Jack Daniel's 10-Year Tennessee Whiskey
Introduction Today, we’re diving into Jack Daniel’s 10-Year Tennessee Whiskey, specifically Batch 3, released in February 2024. It’s a 97-proof whiskey, a bit below the typical barrel-proof offerings that dominate the market, and instead, Jack Daniel’s is banking on the maturity of its 10-year age statement to carry this one. At $85 a bottle, this is positioned as a premium offering within the Jack Daniel’s portfolio, and we were eager to see how it measures up. It’s been a while since we’ve had a Jack Daniel’s product on the show, but we feel like their products are so consistent—whether you love or hate the signature banana funk, you know what you’re getting. Without fail. we find that every Jack Daniel’s release has that telltale banana note. And depending on the batch, it can go into "overripe" territory, which, honestly, can be a little off-putting. But we're excited to see how this 10-year expression handles it. Le

We Asked 14 Bartenders: Which Cocktail Do You Wish People Would Order More? (2025)
2025 is here and with it comes a slew of predictions regarding what the drink of the year will be. The Negroni, the Aperol Spritz, and the Martini have dominated in recent years, but with trends changing at the drop of a dime, it’s impossible to predict which cocktail will fall into hands most often for the next 12 months. Despite the difficulty in forecasting the drink of 2025, bartenders can certainly hope to make some drinks more often. Maybe they’re tired of shaking up espresso-soaked Martinis and want to see guests sip on more savory drinks. The article We Asked 14 Bartenders: Which Cocktail Do You Wish People Would Order More?

F/W 24′ Feature: Back To The Vintage
Aging wine is such a privileged thing to do, it’s such an abstract thing to do, and it’s one of the more imprecise wine topics to try to capture in a coherent way, which is saying quite a bit. It’s kind of an absurd topic. It’s also a fascinating multi-dimensional way to travel through time and space while getting a window into the soul of a vineyard, and a winemaker, and a vintage, in a single bottle.

Understanding a Wine's Texture
This article was originally published in November of 2014. It is still read worthy. Enjoy! \ My wife recently asked my opinion on a colorful, acrylic painting that she was working on. I am always available to critically evaluate someone else’s creative efforts—irrespective of the medium—particularly when I have zero training or expertise in it. And so, I delivered my pontification. “The orange pumpkin looks a little flat and one dimensional. It needs more depth and texture .” She resisted slightly, invoking technical issues which I did not understand, but eventually she relented and accepted my assessment and modified it to its current excellent state. Even though they routinely slide past our consciousness unobserved, textures are a vital, recurring part of our lives. We are all aware of the multi-dimensional textures in music, art and architecture whereby multiple components are interwoven to achieve a cohesive and very pleasing result

Pondering PIWIs
Our global wine columnist and educator explains why these hybrid grape varieties matter PIWI is the name adopted and trademarked by an international working group for the promotion of fungus-resistant grape varieties founded in Switzerland in 1999; the name is an abbreviation of the German phrase “Pilzwiderstandsfähige Traubensorten,” which means fungal-resistant vines.

F/W 24′ Try This Wine: Balanced Beaujolais
Try the 2021 Zest Of Fleurie Montgenas No. 135 because it shows a cru-level of the appellation’s complexity while capturing that explosive brightness often shut down by cru-level cellar treatment. It’s an incredibly pretty Beaujolais, and requires no additional aging. The post F/W 24′ Try This Wine: Balanced Beaujolais first appeared on Good Vitis .
