Bingo! Nick and Nora are from The Thin Man series. Great fun. That's where I learned to make my dry Marini's to a waltz rhythm (when shaken). My stirred Martini technique comes from a bartender I know in LA, with one of my own secret additions (to the technique, not the drink).
My one complaint about The Thin Man is that he pounds his Martini's down too fast. He seems to enjoy the buzz more than the drink (not that a mild relaxing buzz at the end of long day is a bad thing).
Beer? I'm mostly an ale guy, cellar temp. I brew my own sometimes (have an oateal stout ready to bottle).
So, in my last two or three posts I've written about alcohol, tobacco and firearms. That about covers it. |

Ah! Talisker! It's in my top three. I list them (in order of general preference, but it also depends on my mood, or whether I'm smoking a pipe or cigar) 1) Talisker 2) Glenmorangie - aged in port barrels and 3) The Belvanie. But I have many more to try.
And yes, the AyA is light and lively. I'm still getting used to it with trap.

I'm in the Amsterdam airport right now and besides the normal, wonderful 10 year old Talisker in the Duty Free Shop, there is also a distiller's special from 1991.... must grab a couple on the way home.... |
