    Starbucks has had a secret weapon up there sleeves, eight years in the making. Keurig has had a stronghold on the multi-billion dollar single-cup serving market but Starbucks is about to change all that as they recently announced their jump into the arena with a new system being called Verismo.  Not only will the new machine brew single-cups of coffee but it can also brew lattes and espressos. We got a chance to demo the new Verismo and it’s no joke. The coffee tastes exactly like it does from the stores. And although it won’t give you the friendly barista experience you receive at your local Starbucks, the Verismo will allow you to bang out a fresh cup in less than 30 seconds after you roll out of bed.

    Scotch is broken into five regional parts; the reason why we have 5 regional areas in Scotland is due to distilleries wanting to cut an imaginary slice of the Scottish landscape for marketing purposes and individuality. Whiskey is a term, not a style. Whiskey covers a broad range of spirits, including Scotch. Scotch is a kind of Whiskey. Trust me when you go to a bar and order a whiskey, your bartender has already figured out that you have no idea what you are actually drinking. The Fundamentals of Whiskey – Scotch has to be made in Scotland to be called Scotch. Single malts are a liquid product that is made at one distillery. Scotch has to be made of 100% malted barley. Okay, I believe that just covers the easy stuff now into the reason why you’re reading this article.

  • Practical Guide to White Whiskey

    When people talk about white dog whiskey the first thing that comes to mind for many of us is the image of banjos and NASCAR. I think it’s a foolish presumption because white whiskey is the predecessor to all -age spirits. Today legal white whiskey is being produced on an influx and many consumers don’t understand if it’s a novelty item or where it’s purpose in the spirits industry lies. Wood aging any product will cause it to mellow out from the char inside the barrel the same way a Brita filters water. This process takes away the natural flavor of the product and inserts the wood flavor. There is no real issue with consuming an aged product because it’s extremely enjoyable to spit Bourbon, aged tequila or dark rum. The real use for white whiskey is the substitute of vodka in any mixed drink. Vodka doesn’t contain any oil conquers because of the effectiveness of the column stills that it’s made in. Other spirits such as whiskey, rum, and tequila are still produced in pot stills for the most part. Pot stills strip out congeners from the product. Oil congeners in white whiskey hold any flavor you add to more »

    If you’re looking for an adventurous hike this could be the one for you.  Lewis Mine in Telluride, Colorado is above Bridal Veil Falls in the Bridal Veil basin. The Lewis Mill was built in 1907 and is said to be one of the most intact examples of historic mining sites in Colorado. Since it is so remote and only accessible by foot (4 miles from the trailhead), most everything has been left alone up there. It is on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2001, the mill was restored by a State Historical Fund grant and the materials used were flown to the site by helicopter. The elevation at the mine is 12,448 feet above sea level.
