	In the world of tequila, the cristalino category has become increasingly popular over the past few years (for better or worse), while single barrel expressions remain a relatively infrequent occurrence comparatively speaking. Tequila Cayéya, however, decided to bring these two concepts together with the launch of El Diablo’s Elixir, a single-barrel cristalino that underwent an interesting maturation process.This New Ultra-Premium Tequila From Gran Centenario Was Aged in Red Wine Barrels

This Innovative Tequila Brand Just Dropped an Unusually Aged Single-Barrel Cristalino

The other day, Steffani Scheurich brought by a couple of bottles of Lythgoe Bourbon and we sat down to taste them. The first bottle we tried was the single barrel Bourbon and I found it to be an excellent Bourbon, but I liked this Bourbon even better. Matt and I sat down and tasted both of these Bourbons for a YouTube video and Matt agreed with me that this bottle was superior to the first and that is saying a lot. Matt and I decided to consider this whiskey for the Whiskey of the Month and Matt went so far as to predict it as the Whiskey of the Year! So, the other day we sat down and did a blind tasting for the Whiskey of the Month. The competition was strong and there are a couple we are considering for Whiskey of the Month for next month since they are also strong contenders for Whiskey of the Year. Needless to say, the Lythgoe won this blind tasting, but just barely. Matt loved it and picked it, but I had it second, so we went for another round of blind tasting and the Lythgoe won. Here are our tasting notes.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Our newly-discovered love for bourbon has taken us on a journey. But not just any journey. We’re talking about a bourbon journey. To be clear, this journey doesn’t involve any planes, trains or automobiles. Unlike our journey to Kentucky’s Buffalo Trace in 2016, this one is all about researching, crafting and imbibing new-to-us bourbon cocktails.

The color yellow is gorgeous, eye-catching, and downright happy for most people. So much so that it's the main hue in the world-famous happy face—but science says it's not the best color to wear on a date.

Baby Jane is a bourbon whiskey made by Widow Jane Distilling companies with its own unique heirloom corn, “Baby Jane.” This unique corn has depth, sweetness and creamy spiciness that makes Baby Jane Heirloom Bourbon truly different. Distilled at Widow Jane Distillery locations in Red Hook, Brooklyn and in Kentucky, it is a true small batch bourbon that is hand-assembled in Brooklyn, NY. They only blend a few barrels at a time, and it is non-chill filtered and proofed with mineral water from the legendary Rosendale mines of New York.

Today, we look at the Aladino Candela in the Toro size from JRE Tobacco Co. Back in 2016, when Julio and Justo Eiroa announced the formation of JRE Tobacco Co, two things immediately came to mind – Corojo and Candela. Regarding these two types of tobacco, it’s safe to say that Julio R. Eiroa is the king regarding both. The story of Julio reintroducing the Authentic Corojo seed back to the market is well-known. Some people may not realize that Julio was the largest producer of Candela tobacco. When JRE launched, they started with Corojo and incorporated it into many blends. However, it wouldn’t be until 2023 when they would release a cigar with Candela – and that cigar is the Aladino Candela.

You might not immediately think of whiskey as a summery spirit, and we get that. When you imagine nuanced single-malt Scotch whisky or spicy, warming rye whiskey, you likely envision a cold (possibly snowy) evening. You probably also have thoughts of drinking it neat. What about using whiskey as a summertime mixer?
