    I like Rittenhouse Rye for cocktails, almost never sip it on its own.

    Bulleit Bourbon/Rye Gripe.

    I'm a big fan of Carpano Antica Formula vermouth, and I've encountered loose corks on those bottles now and then. I've taken to (gently) twisting the cap on bottles in the store to find the ones that have the better seal. I have a variety of old stoppers that I'll use to reseal bottles at home.

    Changes in GH twists

    Just when I had submitted an SP order, too! Been wanting to try Aniseed Twist and RDH, was thinking I'd never get a chance...

    Losing Flavor Halfway Through the Bowl

    That was my experience for many more years than I'd like to admit. Whenever I'd see reviews raving about amazing flavors in the last third of a bowl, my reactions ranged from jealousy to disbelief. It turns out that it's depressingly easy to overcook the flavor out of the remainder of a bowl...

    Mac Baren Stockton 2024

    I had some Stockton in my cart for a while, but it sold out before I pulled the trigger. Hope I like the Dark Twist I got instead!

    Opinions on the Prince Shape

    I love princes. The shape is (generally) elegant, and the short bowl is a feature, not a bug, in my book. Yet as long as I don't rush things, I still get an hour or so. Some princes have surprisingly large chambers, so they might not be as short of a smoke as you might think!
