    WTS: Dobbs Homburg, Size 7 1/8

    Sir: because I cannot trust any of my computer monitors I have to ask...the color is black?

    Is it too early for a White Dinner Jacket?

    Rats. I thought I might have a chance to make a buy. As an old fat man I know how difficult it is to find vintage that fits and looks swell. In the end, whether you wear the white jacket or the black one you'll be light years in front of those fathers who dress like the young friends of...

    Is it too early for a White Dinner Jacket?

    In our neck of the wood, the right hand coast in both NC and SC, the line in the sand for the white DJ is pretty much Easter no matter about the outside temperature. Any earlier just isn't done. Given that your old L&T jacket is bumping 50 or 60 years of age just save yourself the fret of when...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    As always, Mr. Fish, I am in your debt. All four of these brands are news to me. With this list in hand, I must shop some speciality stores.

    Mr. Fish, please explain further about premium brands of tonic. I'm using Schweppes 99% of the time and don't know about better brands.

    * Electronic Cigar ?

    Good heavens no. Methinks I would not like such a thing. Whatever would Don Carlos think of me if I did? To paraphrase Julia Child's response to having been asked if she had tried the plastic bags to cook a turkey "I have not and I shall not try them." Mr. Tamasso has the solution for you...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Yessir, Mr. Fish. I really never doubted that you took a shine to most bourbons but I did expect that the idea of me recommending Old Crow would get some kind of response from you. The Reserve is so different from the other stuff labeled as Old Crow, it is difficult to imagine that both are the...

    How do you drink your whiskey?

    Who? I'm thinking those folk.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Blanton's is, I think, distilled by Buffalo Trace (Once Ancient Age, again I think) Distillery. Some say it's the same mashbill as the Buffalo Trace and Rock Hill Farms bottlings. Buffalo Trace is a bit earthy for my tastes, with Rock Hill Farms and Blanton's showing a bit less of the earthy...

    How do you drink your whiskey?

    It's lost on me Mr. Wagner but master distillers like Booker Noe and Elmer T Lee were insistant that adding a drop of water was the thing to do. I personally could not bring myself to question the whiskey wisdom of the likes of those folk.

    This will get a rise out of Mr. Rumblefish....Old Crow Reserve with just a bit of ice. 86 octane. This is about the best stuff going in North Carolina for $10 bucks. No other bourbon on my shelves costs less than twice the price of this OC Reserve. Buy some while it's going for a $ sawbuck.

    How do you drink your whiskey?

    Bourbon mostly, sometimes Irish, even Scotch once in a while, but always with a very small amount of ice.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Mr. Fish, I have tried but I just cannot bring myself to warm up to Hendricks with a garnish of cucumber no matter how small the piece. I'll stick with the lemon peel. What about the price of Hendricks in your neck-o-the-wood? For 750ml it's about $34 while Beefeaters or Tangueray are right...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Hirsch Selection Small Batch Reserve I was visiting the SC coast last week and picked up a bottle of Hirsch Selection Small Batch Reserve at a mom and pop shop. Save your money. To my way of thinking there are much better choices for $36+ per jar. To wit, Knob Creek at dollars less. I had...

    Mid Atlantic people check in here

    Interesting, I've never thought about the idea of NC being Mid-Atlantic. Some of the maps on Google give NY to Maryland as Mid-Atlantic. That said, the barrister has said we're Mid-Atlantic so I'm signing in from Mooresville, NC (Actually today at Kiawah Island where it's 31 degrees!)
