Social Distance Me, I’m Irish
It’s been a while, but with the swift onset of closures, cancellations, etc the Baron, Baroness, and friends suddenly found time on their hands. And with the St. Patrick’s DAy holiday it seemed the perfect time to grab a different bottle of Irish whiskey and share a dram with them – outside, around a fire pit, at a safe and “social distance”.
Son on St. Patrick’s Day Eve, we sipped and reviewed Knappogue Castle’s Finish Series Chateau Pichon Baron limited release which is matured in bourbon barrels for a minimum of 12 years, then further aged in casks from the renowned Bordeaux winery.
We encourage you to grab a glass, pour a dram, and join us.
Cheers!

Manhattan Project: Sweet Vermouth – Martini & Rossi Rosso
For those who enjoyed our BTWOE* series** Christopher Rhodovi (from The Whiskey Room) and I return with our **Manhattan Project Series – Manhattan Project: Sweet Vermouth (MH:SV). In this project we will be tasting 10 different Sweet Vermouths and then also taste both a Bourbon and a Rye based Manhattan made with it. Our BTWOE series yielded Woodford Reserve as ‘the best’ and so we decided to go with the Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey for its companion in our upcoming series as they are made in a very similar manner other than that one is a bourbon and the other a rye whiskey – thus helping reduce variables.
Since it’s probably on your bar, or at least it once was, first up: Martini & Rossi Rosso
We encourage you to grab a glass, pour a dram, and join us.
Cheers!

All in the Family: A barrel aged gift from one of my brothers
In September my youngest brother gave me a lovely gift of a custom logo-ed barrel for aging custom cocktails [Bitner Brothers Cocktails!], along with similarly branded double old-fashioned glasses – and a bottle of one of his own barrel-aged cocktails, a Sauternes-finished Italian American (Basil Hayden’s Bourbon, D’usse cognac, Cocchi americano, Amaro nonino, and Luxardo)!
As my schedule started to get fuller than usual beginning in late September including (but not limited to):

* Catching up on work post vacation,
* Extra singing work (Bach!) that would stretch through into one of his busiest Thanksgiving-Christmas holiday singing seasons (9 holiday services over 48 hours in two cities).
* Entry into (and continually moving on up) Glenfiddich’s ‘World’s Most Experimental Bartender’ competition
* Life in general

It took until late October for me to even get around to tasting his beautiful creation. We thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to creating our own with his generous gift.
Cheers!

Prelude to our Manhattan Project: Sweet Vermouth – Woodford Reserve Rye
For those who enjoyed our BTWOE* series** Christopher Rhodovi (from The Whiskey Room) and I return with a prelude to our first Manhattan Project Series – Manhattan Project: Sweet Vermouth (MH:SV). Given in this project we will be tasting both Bourbon and Rye based Manhattans, we felt it only fair to ourselves and all of you to taste the Rye we will be using on its own first. Since the #1 whiskey in our  BTWOE series was Woodford Reserve, we decided to go with the Woodford Reserve Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey for its companion in our upcoming series.

With strong notes of rye, intermingled with cherry, black & green peppercorns and core tones of vanilla and honey – we both felt this will be an excellent choice/companion to the Woodford Reserve Bourbon for our Manhattan Project: Sweet Vermouth Series.
We encourage you to grab a glass, pour a dram, and join us.
Cheers!
