The politically correct name is Rock Dove

Excellent mixology Al, the Third Rail looks especially riveting . I'm about to join you in that thread Mike as I finish the evening with an Aviation ala Marc. I still think I prefer a mix with more Creme de Violette than maraschino. Shelly, the Smith and Cross Navy Strength is a good Jamaican rum, the Wray and Nephew white overproof is excellent if you can find it and I really like the Goslings black seal, especially for the price as an excellent dark rum in the Tiki cocktails and in the Dark and Stormy.

A nicely done drink Al with just the right amounting pomposity in the glassware. Nice Liberal Shelly. I like it also, especially with the higher proof Bourbons. Interesting Aviation Marc, I will have to give it a try with those proportions for comparison. Now a Barnum (Was Right) Cocktail 2 oz Junipero Gin 1 oz Rothman and Winter's Orchard Apricot 1/2 oz Fresh Lemon Juice 2 dashes Fee Brother's Whiskey Barrel Aged Bitters Shake and double strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with a lemon twist befitting P. T. Barnum The only suckers are those not drinking one of these.

A Lucien Gaudin Cocktail 1 oz Junipero Gin 1/2 oz Dolin Dry Vermouth 1/2 oz Cointreau 1/2 oz Campari Stir over ice and strain into a suitably pompous glass En Garde!

Heh. When you originally posted about the Tap-Icer I remembered that my grandfather had one he used to use all the time.

Good luck on the interviews Reks and Bryan. Also realize i need to respond to a PM from you Bryan. Why do I only get notified for some PMs and not others?

a couple of these a couple of these and one of these

^^^Nice, especially the pickled Okra. Tell Debbie she wins

Thanks Marc, I will keep my eyes open for the gift set as I am running low on cherries. Also, don't hold back on the Tito's.

Excellent. That was a good size. Thanks.

Chimay Grande Reserve

Damn those ribs and chicken look good. Which Traeger do you have Mike? I think I have the wife convinced we need to upgrade our BBQ hardware.

How does the Luxardo compare to Amaretto? Oh and with all the other awesomeness in the Liquor money shot I missed the Tito's, also interested in your opinion of that.

A bunch of manly Red Oxx stuff.

Nice drinks Shelly, and definitely quality ingredients. Thanks for the recipes Al, need to go shopping again. Dinny, that picture is pure win!

Wow, excellent haul Shelly. I love the Redbreast 12 so will be waiting to hear about the Redbreast 15 and the Black Louth Single Malt. Looks like good stuff. Also Dinny, I would also like to know what Camelbak bottles you bought.

Happy Homecoming Birthday Naaman!

Marc - Your Tailspin is a Bijou, NTTIAWWT.

Wow, that Liberal was really nice. The recipe should be doubled so I'm having another.

A Liberal Cocktail 1 oz Wild Turkey Rare Breed 1 oz Carpano Antica 1/4 tsp Amer Boudreau 2 dashes Fee's Orange Bitters Stir and strain into a nice cocktail glass then go and spend someone else's money.

No reason to not start early.

That would be cool Dinny. I was thinking of bringing Peter along.

Chimay Premiere

We'll actually be in town that weekend as my wife is running the NY 1/2 marathon on the 20th. I will try to work things out so I can stop by.
