Look for more whiskey, food and travel posts over the next few months. It is good to be back blogging! It has been a crazy summer and it’s not going to stop anytime soon. Reasonably priced at $33.99, it practically jumped into my cart. I have never seen Pinhook there before and it was the last bottle. My eyes locked on the bright green seal on the top of a bottle of Pinhook Rye. If you haven’t seen his Instagram page look him up.Īs is usual, I left with more than just a bottle of champage.

While there, I ran into Old Man Bourbon, stocking the shelves. I had to wander the whiskey aisle while there it’s the law. On my birthday I stopped by Hi-Time Wine Cellar today to pick up a bottle Ployez-Jacquemart, our favorite champagne. You can find pretty much any type of whiskey gear a whiskey lover would like. There are many websites dedicated to the whiskey lovers of the world.

The most amazing thing she ever got me from the Pappy & Company website is an authentic Pappy Van Winkle barrel head signed by Julian Van Winkle III. I’ve collected some good Pappy gear over the years, including a beautiful hand etched “Bourbon” decanter, glassware, and even napkins. I scored big time this year! (My son and daughter-in-law got me a Hydroflask, probably to make sure I’m hydrating in between bourbon tastings!) She also got me a golf shirt with the Pappy logo. For my birthday, she complimented it with their beautiful bar knife with a custom barrel stave handle. Lynn had already gotten me a Pappy & Company barrel stave cutting board for the bar. Anything whiskey makes a birthday a celebration. Yesterday I celebrated the 35 th Anniversary of my 30th birthday… I’m calling it a Pappy Birthday because my wife knows I love getting Pappy accessories for any occasion.

I have my eye on this “Mint Condition” bow tie from A Taste of Kentucky’s website.

The bourbon is some of the best, and the bottle is so perfect for Christmas. In Virginia, a bottle goes for about $53, if you can find one. generally requires making good friends at your favorite liquor store (or if you live in a regulated state, visiting stores often).

If you can get your hands on a bottle of Stagg Jr., you will make a bourbon lover’s Christmas! If you can get your hands on two bottles – send me one! In all seriousness, finding a bottle of Stagg Jr.

The packaging can’t be beat either – perfect for a Christmas gift.

Blade and Bow was a favorite from our recent trip to the Bourbon Trail.

Larceny is a favorite that we keep stocked on our bar.

I also made sure to include some splurges and some steals (Santa Hint: Airplane bottles are ALWAYS a great steal for stockings).

Keep an eye out for Black Friday sales at your favorite local liquor and beverage store!
