Spirits

As the mercury falls, as do the leaves on the trees and the days get shorter we could all use a tasty cocktail to warm our toes and lift our spirits.

This book has quickly become one of my treasured tomes in the beverage genre. Historian and Four Roses Brand Ambassador Al Young has created a masterpiece.

First, it’s a beautiful book so even those with the shortest of attentions spans (Where were we?) will love the classy layout and the tremendous collection of great old family photos, location shots, and vintage adverts.

 

Choosing the best of the best is never an easy task. All of us who love Spirits live in the greatest era ever. Today we have a greater variety of quality spirits available on the shelves of our local merchants than ever before.

With that said, here is our list of the most outstanding spirits of the year presented in no particular order.

The holiday season is here with its familiar line-up of parties, shopping, creepy mall Santas. For most of us the holidays include a drink or two. Even those who rarely enjoy an adult beverage through the year will have a drink at holiday gatherings. These occasion drinkers (as we like to call them) are most often looking for a stealth alcohol beverage, something that has a faint perception of potency enveloped in something familiar and often something sweet.
