    Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?

    Sazerac has put in a lot of hard work reviving the 1930s/1940s Herbsaint, they even compared the new Herbsaint Original against a still sealed 1940s bottle, it passed with flying colors. Some crazy collector supplied the vintage bottle....;)

    La Fee Parisian is barely absinthe, the Windex™ colored La Fee Bohemian, is just dreadful.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    I'll share the details when it's time to hit the shelves. There will be a nice article in Imbibe Magazine for the March 2010 issue, it's rumored a crazed internet figure was interviewed about this project, of reviving a vintage New Orleans spirit.

    Yes, I have separate cabinets for glasses, a glass door cabinet to display all my absinthe glasses and related items, and other cabinets for the rest of the glasses. The bottles are a lost cause, due to the number of them...;)

    What is your vermouth brand of choice?

    It would be more accurate to say petite wormwood, or Artemesia Pontica, rather than Grand Wormwood. Which you do not want to taste undistilled, or macerated.:eek: Ah the old days of Kina Lillet, Quinquina, etc.

    What is your vermouth brand of choice?
