I like space. And whiskey. And literally keep a flask in my backback as "essential equipment" for any hike.

This is true. Keep a flask in your backpack to reward yourself with something nice. You earned it.

So, to recap: be cautious, alcohol is flamable, even at low proofs, keep it away from flames, use the original closure rather than some convenient fabric, and decant the liquor into a glass with ice, do not throw the bottle at the ice. This has been a public service announcement. Drink responsibly.

Finally, many cocktails are enjoyed chilled on ice, or on the rocks as the terminology goes. Should you choose to serve your alcohol on ice, decant it from the bottle, do not throw the bottle at ice. Remove the closure and pour the alcohol into the glass containing ice. Do NOT throw it at the ice.

Additionally it should be stored in its bottle with its original closure, not a pourous closure (such as cloth). That would soak up the alcohol, accelerate evaporation, and become a fire hazard.

When having cocktails with your friends, remeber that alcohol, even at low proofs, is flamable and should never ever be exposed to open flame.

Today’s #WhiskeyScience post is all about the COLOR of bourbon (and other whiskeys too, I guess 😉) Bourbon gets its color from the barrel during aging. But WHAT is it, exactly, that imparts that heavenly amber hue? 🥃 I was curious, so I went and dug for the answer. Time for a 🧵

Did you ever wonder about the origins of the Old Humble Distilling Company? Well, I wrote the very accurate and true history of the origins of the Old Humble Distilling Company and put it in a book: a.co/d/04gxpMV

It’s cool in June of 2025. But November 2024 is when it mattered. 7 million or so people stayed home and couldn’t be bothered to vote for President. Hopefully this energy carries over to November 2026.

Thank you. The uncertainty is rough-esp\ as a TX brand. We're not in Canada, but it was on the list. So that's on hold... or is it? It is. Now? Oh, the people hate us. Great. Maybe we can make deliveries online. Yes, we're Texas. Not that kind of Texas... damnit. The whiskey is exceptional, though.

An unexpected surprise is some bars are saying they’re having trouble getting their hands on Crown. And we have a product that can step into that void-better tasting, same price, and local.

We got this in before the tariffs, so this won’t be affected. The bigger problem is the market perception of punishing ALL American goods regardless of whether we support this regime’s idiotic decisions. We’re not all billion dollar corporations. Some of us are just trying to pay our kids’ tuition.

Baseball seems like a linear game, with all those lines and the box scores. But the fact is there a spacious non-time kind of time to it.

Do you know what the difference between hitting .250 and .300 is? 25 hits. 25 hits in 500 at bats is 50 points. There’s 6 months in a season, about 25 weeks. If you get just one extra flare a week, just 1. A gork, a ground ball with eyes. Just 1 more dying quail a week and you go to Yankee stadium.
