Recent pickups from Julio's Liquors.

First up, Ardbeg Smokiverse, this year's Fèis Ìle release. This just came in for those who had pre-ordered it, as I had, and will be generally available soon for Ardbeg Day.

Next up, Pinhook 9 year Straight Rye Whiskey "The Home Stretch. This is part of the Loch & Key Whisk(e)y Society vertical series which sees a new release each year, each one year older than the last. I've been collecting these since it started and I'm planning to wait for it to end, then do a gathering to side-by-side all of them. It will end when it ends - basically whenever another year starts to be too much.

Then Bully Boy Distillers Straight Bourbon Whiskey "Wickeder Dahk". Another Loch & Key bottling, this is obviously a follow up to the earlier "Wicked Dahk" bottle. (If you're wondering about the spelling, think Boston accent.)

And finally, Alma del Jaguar Tequila Nocturne. We tried their range at a recent Whisk(e)y Wednesday at Julio's Liquors - the standard Blanco, Reposado, and Anejo, and this one. Their standard line ferments 20% with champagne yeast and 80% with wild yeast, and they were all very good. But Nocturne is 100% wild yeast and I thought it was the best of the lot, and very affordable, so I grabbed one.

There are news stories today claiming that Pete #Hegseth, Trump's, uh, ... unconventional ... pick for Secretary of Defence, wants to cut the number of generals and admirals across the board by 10%, and up to 25% on four-stars and above.

I think they're misreporting this. Pete was actually asking for 25% price reductions on Admiral Nelson's Rum and Los Generales Tequila.

"Tequila" is a 1958 #Latin-inspired #surf #instrumental song written by #ChuckRio and recorded by American #rockAndRoll band #TheChamps. "#Tequila" became a No. 1 hit on both the #pop and #RAndB charts at the time of its release and continues to be strongly referenced in pop culture to this day. In 1958, the song won a Grammy for #BestRhythmAndBluesPerformance at the #1stAnnualGrammyAwards. In 2001, that song was inducted into the #GrammyHallOfFame.
