Gene and Raffy, I'm sorry I missed your call yesterday while you were quaffing some beerish delights. That Bass has quite a layer of sea foam on it!

Now enjoying a pair of Corpse Reviver #2 cocktails to celebrate Claire finally getting a full-time tenure track contract! Long overdue, but with the partial credit she has earned she can get tenure quickly and get past all the annoying annual contract shenanigans. Congrat Claire!

And the Swiss Opaline absinthe is fantastic in cocktails!

Welcome back Al and congrats Claire.

I want to change my reaction to the Bonal and Rye from yummy to fucking brilliant! If you like Manhattans you need to try this drink.

I also tried a Vesper # 2

1 1/2 oz Ransom Old Tom gin

1/2 oz Germain-Robin brandy

3/4 oz Cocchi Americano

Stir and pour

Extremely meh

Tonight a Little Italy

2 ounces rye whiskey

3/4 ounce sweet vermouth

1/2 ounce Cynar

Maraschino cherry

Orange zest

Combine liquid ingredients in an ice-filled mixing glass and stir until cold. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with a maraschino cherry, then flame a wide strip of orange zest over the top.

Nice and nice. The Griottines kirsch steeped cherries are much better than Luxardo. The flamed orange zest was cool and worth the singeing

Every time I go out drinking I'm reminded why I don't like going out drinking. Lost 3lbs in one night, fml.

EDIT: and Congrat AL for Claire, must have been those poor impersonations of Joanne. Cheers!
