Thus ends today's bourbon lesson. I could probably right a 12 page word document tonight from memory, but I'll save everyone the boredom.

See if you can find an Abuelo 7 anos or 12 anos from Panama. I got a few bottles of the 7 year at the airport (Panama) for $12 each and then had to order the 7 year for $21 from a local store. A friend brought back a bottle of the 12 year.
Drink that over ice with one lime wedge. Good stuff!Spoiler:
Hmm.... the only Central American rum I've ever had is Ron Zacapa. Have to replenish the stores before the weekend, so I'll keep a weather eye open for that Abuelo stuff.

I have a glass or 2 of bourbon essentially every night. I've recently started aging my own bourbons, and I really like some of the results, although waiting a year to get the result is a little annoying.

Okay..... I'm seriously bummed. I've been to four or five booze shops in the past few weeks, and I can't find this rum.

Now I have two reasons to take a long lunch.

I've never heard of it, but apparently there are a lot of drunks in South Korea, because this is the most popular spirit in the world. It's basically like a 40 proof rice vodka. almost no flavor. not really sure what to do with it.... i bought a thing of lemonade at 7-11, and we'll see how it goes.
A note about State Restrictions, our efforts and what you can do:
State laws on wine shipping are complex and under constant review, and we look forward to a day when all states open up to out-of-state retailers so we can offer you all our full assortment of products. In the meantime, we've opened a network of Wine.com warehouses in a number of states, giving us a local presence in those states. This enables us to legally ship wine to our customers in those states while also reducing the shipping time to get you your wine. Unfortunately, in some states not even that will suffice, so keep those letters and emails flowing to your state legislators!
