Whiskey A Go Go (down the Rabbit Hole)

December 17, 2019 by Mr. S No Comments

I received 2 bottles of Rabbit Hole Distillery Bourbon to create some drinks with and drink I did.

It’s time to slip down the Rabbit Hole

But first a little about this craft bourbon. With the addition of Heigold Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, the Rabbit Hole Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky has created a truly distinctive brand with a unique flavor. Developed by its founder and whiskey maker Kaveh Zamanian, this mash bill offers drinkers a high-quality malted rye imported from Germany.

Now a FULL-TIME addition to the line-up

Rabbit Hole Heigold Kentucky high rye straight bourbon has become a year-round favorite, and I for one understand exactly why.  Also in the Rabbit Hole line-up are

“Cavehill” Kentucky Straight Bourbon – a four-grain bourbon that pays homage to the history of Louisville distillers. Rabbit Hole “Boxergrail” offering a rye inspired by the long history of boxing in the city and “Dareringer” Straight Bourbon Whiskey offers something slightly different as it is finished in sherry casks for a sweeter bourbon.

Although I think that any of the Rabbit Hole Bourbons, due to their quality are best enjoyed neat, I have included a couple of classic recipes as I always do.

A Classic Whiskey  Sour

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Rabbit Hole “Dareringer”
  • 6 oz lemon juice
  • 6 oz simple syrup
  • ice
  • lemon wedge
  • maraschino cherry

Instructions

  1. Fill shaker with ice
  2. Add 2 oz Rabbit Hole “Dareringer”
  3. Add lemon juice & simple syrup
  4. Shake vigorously
  5. Pour into a tumbler
  6. Garnish with lemon & maraschino cherry

Hare of the Dog

The perfect wake me up when you’ve had a rough night.

Ingredients

  • “Dareringer” Rabbit Hole Bourbon
  • V-8 juice
  • Horseradish
  • Bitters
  • Worcestershire  sauce
  • Ice
  • Coarse salt

Instructions

  1. Wet rim of glass & dip into the course sale
  2. Fill shaker with ice
  3. Add 2 oz  “Dareringer” Rabbit Hole Bourbon
  4. Pour in 8 oz V-8 juice
  5. Add 1/4 tsp of Horseradish
  6. Toss in a dash of bitters & a dash of Worcestershire  sauce
  7. Shake well & pour into the glass
  8. Garnish with celery

My personal favorite is…

Rabbit Hole Heigold neat, over ice, or my favorite – WARM. Warming the bourbon really releases both the aroma as well as the flavor of a good bourbon like this.

 

Here’s how I do it.

  1. Make a cup of coffee
  2. Pour 2 oz of Heigold Rabbit Hole Bourbon into a snifter
  3. Balance the snifter on the coffee mug
  4. Allow it to warm the whiskey as it releases the fragrance.
  5. Enjoy

Until next time. CHEERS!

Diplomatically Diplomatico

October 28, 2019 by Mr. S No Comments

Note: I received a bottle of Diplomatico Mantuano Rum to write about. All opinions are strictly my own.

Dark Rum and Fall seem to just go together

It’s the chill in the air for me that seems to make me want the deep aroma and well-balanced flavor that great dark rum seems to give me. As the summer wanes, I can think of no better way to try out a dark rum for the first time than with two CLASSIC rum drinks.

For these drinks, I chose Diplomatico’s Manuano, an extraordinary blended rum that has been aged for up to eight years and is great mixed with everything from simply Coca-Cola to Blue Mountain Coffee.

Cuba Libre

While I knew that the Cuba Libre (a simple Rum and Coke) has its roots in Cuba, I had no idea of the history of the drink. It turns out that its origins go back to the Spanish American War and the independence of Cuba (Libre means FREE). While the drink itself evolved (there was no Coca-Cola in 1898) the former drink made with water and brown sugar came to be in the first year or so that Coca-Cola became a brand. There are many conflicting stories about the year and who created it in the way we know now, but I do know that it is as good in 2019 as it was in 1900.

Cuba Libre AKA Rum + Coke

Ingredients

  • Ice
  • Diplomatico Mantuano Dark Rum
  • Coca-Cola or Diet Coke (if you’re like my wife)
  • Lime

Directions

  1. Fill an 8oz tumbler with ice
  2. Pour 1½ oz Diplomatico Mantuano Dark Rum into glass
  3. Fill with cola to taste
  4. Garnish with lime

Another favorite of mine is perfect for those chilly nights, Jamaican Coffee. I prefer mine made with traditional Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, as that with the Diplomatico Mantuano creates a perfectly balanced drink, but in a pinch, I will use any other medium roast coffee.

Jamaican Coffee

Ingredients

  • Coffee
  • Diplomatico Mantuano Dark Rum
  • Kahlua
  • Heavy Cream
  • Cocoa or Shaved Chocolate to Garnish

Directions

  1. Pour 1½ oz Diplomatico Mantuano Rum into a stemmed wine glass or coffee mug
  2. Add 1 oz Kahlua
  3. Add hot coffee to 1 inch from the rim
  4. Float Heavy Cream on top
  5. Garnish with Cocoa or Shaved Chocolate

It’s a Partida Party

September 16, 2019 by Mr. S No Comments

Note: I received a bottle of Partida Tequila to write about. All opinions are strictly my own.

There’s a chill in the air

Hurricane Dorian missed us, the 100-degree days are finally a thing of the past and celebrating outside includes a few drinks with some good friends. Life in South Florida means that when everyone else is partying indoors, it’s time for us to enjoy after a round of golf or evenings by the pool with some good music and great drinks.

I hope that you enjoy these as much as I do

Mexicali Blanco

Ingredients

  • 1½ oz Partida Tequila Blanco
  • 1½ oz Kahlua
  • 5 oz half and half
  • ice

Directions

  1. Fill a shaker with ice
  2. Combine ingredients and shake, shake, shake
  3. Pour into an 8 oz tumbler
  4. Enjoy

Partida Breeze

Ingredients

  • 1½ oz Partida Tequila Blanco
  • fresh-squeezed grapefruit
  • grenadine
  • ice

Directions

  1. fill a 10 oz tumbler with ice
  2. pour Partida Tequila Blanco over ice
  3. add fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice to ¼ inch from the rim
  4. add a splash of grenadine

Enjoy! 

Partida Tequila is only made from blue agave grown in the Tequila Valley, near a dormant volcano. The rich, red volcanic soil is perfect for the plant. After 7 to 10 years in the fields, it reaches close to 100 lbs. and is hand-harvested by the jimadors. There is nothing quite like a good hand-crafted tequila and Partida knows JUST how to get the freshest, natural characters out of the agave just so you can enjoy a great drink.
