I'm in Florence Italy on holiday. I've learned of a speakeasy called Vanilla Club. What I've read it's one of the most difficult ones to get into. I was hoping to find some advice in The Lounge put found none. I'm going to try this evening. If anybody has the info please share. Thanks.

I just received this sampler pack of Wise Man cigars. I've heard good things and want to give them a try. Has anyone here smoked them?

An add for a Casablanca fedora popped up in my Facebook feed. The photo looks great but I've never heard of Ercisus or Funnyman. And the $60 price makes me think this has to be a scam. Has anyone had any dealings with them? https://nowfunny.com/products/casablanca

Since starts this thread ages ago, I my latest fav is the Nashville Hot by Barsmith. I like the spicy yet robust flavor. It doesn't have that hint vinegar that the Zing Zang does. What's your go-to bloody Mary mix?

Today is the rare bloody Mary.

Wow. This thread has been going for about 15 years. I probably posted to it at some point, but my current favs are Monkey Shoulder in cocktails and Glenmorangie Lasanta for sipping.

A throw back to my younger days: Dr. Pepper and tequila (Kirkland anejo). Two flavors I discovered complimented each other well.

Originally produced in 2005 and thought to be sold out long ago. A forgotten hermetically sealed container was recently unearthed containing a dozen, pristine, unused, The Fedora Lounge matchbooks. This rare opportunity will not last long once the word gets out. Savvy people will not delay to...

I did an experiment. I made a Manhattan with 2 oz Bullet Rye, 1 oz Cocchi Torino sweet vermouth and two dashes of angostura bitters but added a half ounce of Averna Amora. It was more smooth and earthy. I will always do that going forward.
