Eagle Rare is better than both put together!

Eagle Rare and the proper cigar pairing is a perfect evening, might I suggest a Oliva Serie V Melanio...

Tonight, Eagle Rare and trying to put together Christmas presents at the in-laws. I hate Matel

The local didn't have any Rare, I am ready for another bottle, so I settled on this.

I'm on water tonight. My brother in law and I killed the eagle last night.

I am finishing off a bottle of Tempranillo Rioja that we had with dinner last night.

I finally cracked open my Christmas present to me!

Here's my choice of drinks. Though I prefer the original Yukon Jack or Wicked Hot Yukon Jack.



Here's an odd fact. Despite the Yukon Jack being made in Canada. Only the US version is 100 proof. While the Canadian version is 70 proof for the original Yukon Jack.

How do you like it, 111.4 proof, will be on my short list.

You don't like yourself very much do you? I'm good with the high proof, but something about Makers I can barely drink. I once heard a guy describe it as it tastes like they use fake smoke flavoring

I thought it was very good, smooth. I need to compare it directly with Makers 46. another favorite of mine.

Drinking Brazil's favorite drink... Cachasa. My friend brought back 4 bottles of the moonshine version: They have two names for it... One is "Black Mamba Juice" the other is: "Pau-no-cu" (which means--- d*ck in as*"( portuguese))!!! You have a couple sips of this sh*t, and it's all over--- spins, puking, hallucinations--- a good time for all!!!


A bottle of this crap (non moonshine version) --- sells for $2.25 a fifth in Brasil. It is literally cheaper than water. It is a clear liquor, made from sugar cane. It's $30.00's up here. Tastes like dirt, it is bad, but I gotta keep in line with my GF's preferences, right? You dump this Cachasa into a glass, then pour in way too much sugar, a lime, some ice, and pound the hell out of it. A developed taste for sure.

Its all I drank when I go there, because their beer is sh*tty. Worse than Bud light.

It is the popular drink of the masses down there, because it is so cheap.

I've had white lightning from Kentucky on several occasions (loved it), but this "black-mamba" moonshine will knock any American moonshine drinking guy on
his or her ass in minutes.

Hopefully I wont get banned tonight. I've had a little already. My lord!

Those crazy assed Brazilians love this stuff. It will put hair on your chest!

Gotta run... felling a little uhm, sick.... Later alligator!

Whats your take on the Woodford Reserve.

My thoughts, you can taste the wood but a little sweet.

Have not had the chance to pair with meat and cigars.

I think its a little watered down. I drank too much Jefferson Very Small Batch last night. It has a similar taste to Woodford, but not watered down and with a little bite. IMO, Jefferson is a better bourbon and cost less.
