Vizzini: No more rhymes now, I mean it. Fezzik: Anybody want a peanut?

I have seen it for as low as $85 and as high as $120.

Yay, Cooking with Colin has returned

^^^ This. And then we'll get drunk.

Hmm, that puts it right around Christmas. I have a bit of time off then ...

Nice start to your birthday scotchmeister. Hope it continues to improve.

Have a Happy Birthday Chris when you are able to celebrate.

This is a very nice Bourbon.

Well it is definitely interesting as the ingredients are well integrated and there is a bit of smoothness that would not be there without the barrel aging. I probably would have used their Rendevous Rye rather than their Double Rye, but that is personal preference. But that is where I was disappointed. When I make a Manhattan, I get to choose the Rye, the vermouth(s), bitters, proportions, etc. the Manhattan is one f the most tweakable of cocktails, and that is one of the reasons I like it so well. I can craft it to fit my mood at the time. You lose that here so better to view it as something altogether different. If you do that it is worthwhile and interesting.

Small batch vinegar for the win; Supplcation for the bigger win. The Lorraine looks good Marc, the Earthquake, not so much. Trying out some High West 36th Vote barreled Manhattan. I'll need to get back to you on this one.

A few odds and ends from DrinkupNY before the free shipping ended.

RIP Champ. Thanks for some of the best boxing matches ever.

Is that based off of the THD vs. Frequency graph?

No. Just good times.

Thanks for reminding me I really like the Ransom Old Tom Mike. So let's see if I agree with Al. Well it definitely highlights the taste of the Old Tom. Not great but ....

Nice. I may have to give that a try later.

You are getting some spot-on advice Crappy. The only thing I will add is that from my perspective what you should really learn from school is how to learn.

I have had mine for almost four years now. They go all over with me and the cables never even came loose let alone break or cause any other problems.

This is Head-Case. Both.

Organic Chemistry is my guess.

I know you guys are are cable haters but take off the stock cable from the HD-25-II, take the drivers off the headband and turn them upside-down and connect a 650 cable. Much better for not that much dinero..

First, I finally got up the nerve for the clear rye throwdown: This will be a non-Skylab, non-HPA review. The Wasmund's clear rye spirit remained as hideously vile as I remembered. The Barbershop clear rye was merely vile. However, since the Barbershop is significantly more expensive I declare it a tied FAIL. I needed something to cleanse my palate so I went with an improved Lucien Gaudin cocktail: 1 1/2 oz Junipero Gin 1/2 oz Mandarine Napolean 1/2 oz Gran Classico Bitters 1/2 oz Vya extra dry Vermouth Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with an orange twist.

Peaks and Volcanos?

I just wasn't sure a TS plug would work in the jack. I simply never tried. When I wanted to hook something up that was only single ended I used XLR to RCA adapters at the end of my cables. Since the TS to RCA works for you I guess that question is answered.

I do like real bison grass vodka, but then again I do have Polish and Russian ancestry.
