Baille, Nichol & Jarvie is an excellent blended scotch produced by Glenmorangie. Unfortunately, it is not available in the US. Bushmill’s Black Bush is also excellent, but a bit pricey ($25-$30 a bottle). At under $10 a...

I had a bottle of Evan Williams Single Barrel in my checked luggage from Chicago to Orlando with no problems. I did take care to ‘bubble wrap’ it though.

am not sure how to interpret labels. I will give a car analogy: Honda is the make, Accord is the model. So my bottle of wine I have in front of me here says “Le Grand Noir” and under that "(Black Sheep)" and then...

just took the little whitye label off the front. EBay is a good place., too; I picked up 4 or 5 William Sonoma aprons there, and took off their little tags, as well... If I were to need an apron, didn’t want a blend, and...

I’ve been a bourbon drinker for years. Never got into the high end stuff unless I go out. At home I always just bought Jim Beam, but awhile back the price started going up and I gave Evan Williams a try and have pretty much...

Does anyone know of any software that is tailored to beer tasting? Right now, I have a bulging notebook with the labels that I soak off and glue on each page over my “review” (notes really of what I like and dont...

-bone in black pepper sauce, as I wanted to try something more Hong Kongy, given Mr. Ho’s background. It was very tender meat (thin, with eye bones in it, reminiscent of something I can’t recall) and the pepper sauce...

I’m hunting for a specific store-bought harissa (aka North African pepper relish): Mustapha’s Moroccan Harissa. It comes in a jar and is rather expensive - $7 or $8, but is well worth the money. See this link for a...

We bought a Black & Decker electric grill with the same specs as the DeLonghi at CostCo for $30ish. A friend has the DeLonghi and it appears to be IDENTICAL except for the labels (a common occurrence nowadays in electronics and,...

A lot of great recommendations. I like: Vodka: Tito’s (I love this stuff) Gin: Plymouth Tequila: Hornitos Reposado Whisky: Evan Williams 1783 or Rebel Yell Rum: Really depends on your preference Brandy: Korbel VSOP (By far the...

kosher grocers will have under the paskesz or lieber’s label plenty of baking chocolate

of econ. in college but this is just beyond me. I wound up, by the way, with a 1.75 l bottle of Evan Williams Black for $24.99, which was quite satisfactory.

For what it’s worth, Famous Grouse is the best-selling whiskey in Scotland, and to my taste, it does the job at a good price. I like the Black Label, too, though it is a little pricey. The Red Label has a similar smoky...

Droste is excellent and widely available. Other top choices are the organic Green and Black's (available at Whole Foods) and Pernigotti (available at Williams-Sonoma). Both of these are made in Italy.

We tried this one from Williams- Sonoma and added Nectarines- Sangria Sip this sangria slowly to beat the heat of a summer afternoon. 1 bottle (750ml) fruity, dry red wine 1/4 cup brandy 2 Tbs. sugar 2 lemons, thinly sliced 2 oranges,...
