Drink of Choice
-
zbigjeff I haven’t started the tasting as I’m waiting on a friend. The standard Four Roses, Buffalo Trace and old Forester Bourbon or Rye tend to be my go-to ‘well’ drinks. I tend to save the good stuff for rainy days. I’m thinking about a Rye tasting tomorrow…I’ve obviously tried the Bulliet on a number of occasions. Lol
Joe Hell You’re a good man. Re: Waiting on a friend. Always the best choice. Out of the Ryes, I never had the Burnside. But, my picks are the Old Forester and Bulleit 95 Rye. I love Manhattan’s with the Bulleit. But, your selections for the next are very worthy. Have a great time.

Tex_77 I’m having a smaller whiskey tasting than usual but looking forward to it. I picked up my first bottle of the small batch select the other day and I’m totally into it!
Joe Hell I wouldn’t turn down any of those, but the Small Batch Select is smooth.

Joe Hell the Rittenhouse is my daily go to. Great rye and very affordable. Bullitt is nice also

Joe Hell looks like a good line up.

I’m not sure this can be called a drink. Its more of an adult desert. Some Butter Pecan ice cream topped with 2 shots of Buffalo Trace bourbon cream.

GWG8541 Bourbon Cream or Irish Cream is a great addition to any ice cream. Period. It may not be a drink. But, is definitely worthy of “oh hail yes”.

Departing Contestant I didn’t know what to do when he went missing! Still wore the headbank though!

Usually a bourbon/whiskey and beer guy but with the warmer weather found myself leaning towards Mezcal margaritas. Really like the Del Maguey Vida mezcal ~$30 a bottle in these parts.

Jonathon s request, please list your drink of choice. I’ll start, I love bourbon and Coors Light or a good old Coors yellow belly. My bourbons of choice are Elijah Craig, Bulliet, Maker’s Mark, Jim Beam Black and W.L. Wellers. Now if I just want to pound down some drinks a good 7&7 can’t be beat.

Curious if anyone has tried smoking coffee? If so did you smoke the beans before or after grinding? Cold smoke hot smoke? Cold brew?
Thought it might be interesting to try.“A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.”

Thought it might be interesting to try.Surg Will have to search some more. But, I believe someone did that about 3-6 months ago and determined that effort (smoking coffee beans) didn’t work very well or didn’t come through when brewed. Maybe I’m not searching using the correct words.

Thought it might be interesting to try.Surg I tried smoking green Kona beans. Wet them before putting them on the cold side of my Treager and smoking them for several hours until I got some good color. I let them cool over night and roasted them, then ground them fresh. I found no real smoke in the flavor. It might work on already roasted beans if you wet the with a spray bottle and cold smoke them. I think roasting the beans took the smoke away. Hope that gives you some insight. zbigjeff roasts his own coffee and he is trying to find the posts where we talked about this experiment.

Thanks. I had smoked some simple syrup to make smoked old fashions with in the past and it came out great. Was trying to find something else creative to do. Maybe I’ll throw a small tray in on an upper rack next time I smoke some meat and see how it goes.

We had tons of mint ready in the garden grounds(Chocolate mint, apple mint, spearmint, peppermint, lots a mint) in addition to the daily doses of fresh mint tea, I harvested a ton & Margaret made several batches of mint simple syrup & mint syrup. Very nice for a little different twist on things. We still have a lot of it dried from last year, so we did not dry any (yet) this year, especially as I have been swamped here lately.

GWG8541 I rarely find myself in an ice cream mood but was craving it all day. Had I seen this suggestion earlier I would have been all over it! This pairing sounds delicious!
Joe Hell Try some of that heavy mint syrup (just a little) on some home made Niller Ice Cream. I am pretty certain you will like it.
