    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    Thomas H Handy and Sazerac 18 are both part of same limited fall release, The Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. Their suggested retail price is the same. Although the Saz may be more sought after and may be marked up. Handy is a cask strength rye whereas Saz is bottled around 90 proof...

    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    I thought you were refering to real absinthe, not real Herbsaint per se. Herbsaint has not recently a released a new/real absinthe. However a few other ones are available. The amount of absinthe in a Sazerac cocktail is so little that I don't worry if I am using "genuine" absinthe of a...

    Stop thinking about the CD and get it. You'll love it! The CD runs big. Go with the 58. I wear exactly a 7 3/8 in all of my other hats. When I bought my CD I bought a 58 and a 59. The 59 was way to big and I ended up selling it here. The 58 fits me perfectly.

    Have you ever compared it to the baby Saz? Similar age and price point.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    I think Art's cabernet is much more red than Optimo's oxblood.

    1965 US Coast Guard Academy Dress Coat / Pea Coat

    I also thought that it was some sort of officer's coat. But the date 7/65 is when he entered the academy. He graduated in '69. Although all cadets in the academy on on a track to being officers.

    1965 US Coast Guard Academy Dress Coat / Pea Coat

    I thought you guys may like to see these pictures. This coat belonged to my father when he attended the US Coast Guard Academy in the mid 1960s. I'm not sure if it is properly a pea coat, but it is made of the same dense wool. It is double breasted but I didn't take a photo of it buttoned up...

    Pictures of my long await Aero Stockman

    If this were a sportcoat or suit jacket, yes I would say they are too long. But it is not a suit jacket. For a coat I like the sleeve to come down to my thumb joint. Also, as the horsehide breaks in and creases around my elbow the sleeve will shorten a smidge. I think the sleeve length is...

    Pictures of my long await Aero Stockman

    Thank you all for your kind words. It is very stiff right now, but Boston has cold winters and I am sure by spring it will be nicely broken in. The lining is Lochcarron Tartan - Green Scott Hunter. Southernwayfare, it is hard to compare shade from different photos. However, it does...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    There was a time that you could have taken to you neighborhood hatter and have fixed up. But that is not true anymore. I would save your nickels and send it to Art. I can't say for sure, but it does sound like you pulled loose some threads holding the ribbon on. I doubt it would be an...
