    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Borsalino. The ribbon is black, although it looks a little blueish in this picture. Best regards, Captain B

    To fix or not to fix, that is the question

    I recently bought a Homburg which apparently was stretched too much, as the sweatband and the ribbon were ripped apart. I gave it to my hatter and had the band sewn back together and a new leather sweat put in. As the new band is a little thicker the hat is slightly tight, but this will change...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Isabella, although it isn't in the best condition I really think it's a great hat - you've got a piece of history there! I have a rather similar hat which was my great grandfather's. It's nearly in like-new condition, but sadly it's too small for me :( I will put some pictures up as soon as I...

    Gin Lovers Unite!

    I'll have to try this! What's the best way to drink gin neat? From the freezer, with cubes, or at room temperature? What type of glass? Best regards, Captain B

    What are you wearing today??

    Thank you very much, Warbaby! I'm afraid I can't take any photos of the coat at the moment because it's at the tailor's (getting the sleeves shortened). I will do this as soon as I get it back! It is an Austrian police coat, probably from the seventies (so I was told), but I have to do some...

    What are you wearing today??

    Thank you for the compliment! I too think that a plain black tie would have ruined this particular outfit, but mainly because I think it wouldn't have fit to the shirt. I don't have anything against plain black ties in general, the right combination can make it look really good - I also like the...

    Vodka

    Thank you for the research, Ethan! After reading many of the reviews I decided to just give it a try and bought it today. It cost 71 € which was a bit heavy on my wallet, but in any case I think the bottle looks great :D Now It's on its way into the freezer - my impressions will follow...

    Gin Lovers Unite!

    Yesterday I tried Hendrick's for the first time - I could make out the roses (lots of them), but not the cucumbers. Not that I'd call myself an expert, the only other gins I know are Gordon's and Bombay Sapphire. Best regards, Captain B

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Ron Millonario Solera 15 Reserve Especial Superb! Without directly comparing the two I find it equally good as the Zacapa, but more strongly flavoured. Best regards, Captain B

    Rum Lovers - Good Quality Rums

    Around here I've never seen the Zacapa 23y. for 25 $ :eek:. In Austria it's about three times as much... Anyway, it also was my introduction to the rum world and I was convinced immediately - I found something of bananas and cherry and also chocolate in the taste. It is exceptionally smooth...

    Vodka

    Has anyone tried Imperia vodka? I'd like to give it a try but haven't found many reviews yet, so I thought I'd ask before spending this amount of money on a bottle of vodka (it costs around 70 € = 98 $ here). Best regards, Captain B

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    No - spirits don't age once bottled. I'd really like to compare this to a new bottle though. I'm sure you've got something really fine there :) Best regards, Captain B
