On a boat? Is Key West starting to tilt? 


Nope, I’m sure I was the one starting to tilt given my vacation consumption.

Wish I could find a reliable and readily available source for real Unicum!

Had a shot of Blood Oath 8 at The Palace in Prescott (really cool history).  I don't understand the hype.  It did seem to need time and ice to open up.

 

Switched over the basic EHT and was quite content with it.

Did I do it right? 😀 A little strange at first but by the end I was content.

Some sh/t bartender has been cutting the Fernet-Branca with water. I really dislike Las Vegas.

Better this time… although very risky to order in present company.

Interesting stuff introduced at Tales of the Cocktail a few weeks back and only a few bottles seem to remain— a boozy badass lemonesque snowball.

Jeebus!!!.  I'm guessing they heard a Fernet and another Fernet in a coffee cup?

That's coffee in the coffee mug-- but the snifter was damn near the size of a goldfish bowl.

Is it any good?

I've had this one, for 43 years.

Yes-- it's quite good. Chances are yours has transformed quite a bit in the bottle over the years-- would be cool to sample it against a current release.

Thanks.

It might be okay. if you look carefully,  you'll see the paraffin wax over the top and neck.  Back in the day, when my Dad was stationed in Italy,  I started collecting miniatures from all over Europe.  We dipped the tops in wax, to prevent evaporation.  I still have most of them, (~200).

Who needs a hydrometer when you've got a veritable Rock Candy Christmas in the bottle?
