  1. CW: Booze

    Tobala & tonic!
    Ah so utterly refreshing and idk comforting in a way
    I try and limit #mezcal #cocktails and this is a single varietal too - but for whatever reason tobala (and nothing else I've tried) works with tonic - cuts through the sweetness with an earthy flourish!
    1½ oz Montelobos tobala ; ~4 oz tonic (Schweppes)

    Cheers, friends!

    Opening up some of my #Mexico bottle haul!
    Picked up the Nixta and it has terrific long flavor - but rather sweet up front (I can see why old fashioneds with it in lieu of sugar would be great).

    Tried the Palabra Caliente* #cocktail (skipped the 🍒) also with the Ancho liqueuer. Hmm this is good but less corn forward (and too much ancho but not as spicy) as I thought it would be. Used the last of my Vega elote #mezcal (Espadin) for it.

  4. CW: Booze (store; CDMX)

    Picked up some bottles to take back home to Pittsburgh - things I'd not get there. Mezcal, Raicilla and some others. Really enjoyed the conversation at El Liquor Store and the samlings/tastings as I considered what to buy (bottle/glass weight was a factor for bottle 4 and 5...) Many props to the guy there who gave me a roll of bubble wrap too when he rang me up.
    (I did bring bubble wrap with me but not enough...)

    #Mezcal last word ftw
    (With 3 drops of luxardo marascino cherry syrup and a ½ tsp of agave nectar - after it felt a little too tart and bracing)

    Hmm the pineapple infused mezcal mentioned here seems interesting to have around ( cc @APBBlue )

    Happy national #cocktail day!

    This is turning out to be in my top 3 easily, even more so as I have it prebatched. Just need to stir well with ice to dilute a bit, splash of bitters, then pour into the cold glass.
    Cacao nib infused* #mezcal negroni
    (with campari and Carpano antica vermouth; 1 part each)

    *1:1 Mix of 8 hr (overnight) infused at cool ambient room temp and 90 min infused at 65 ⁰C; 10% cacao nibs by weight per volume of mezcal (Espadin)

  8. How a trippy booze-induced coma experienced by Tnúdgal – a violent, boastful and greedy medieval Irish knight from Cork – defined our conception of Hell.

  9. I've been dipping into "Lost Souls", a volume of short stories by Hwang Sunwon.

    One that has particularly caught my attention is "Booze", written in 1945.

    Following the August 15th liberation of Korea from Japanese rule, the Nakamura distillery is to be taken over by Koreans. Which Koreans though? As we follow the head clerk Chunho's attempts to manage the takeover, his household, and himself, we see a decent individual struggling with challenges going way beyond a change of name for the distillery.

    "Booze" not only absorbed me in its narrative but also made me think about both decolonization and writing about decolonization.

  10. Are #chimps having a fruity #booze-up in the wild?
    According to a paper, the observational data is the first evidence of the sharing of #alcoholic foods among nonhuman #greatapes in the wild.
    The fruit in question is seasonal and comes from Treculia africana trees common across the home environment of the wild chimps in Cantanhez National Park in Guinea-Bissau.
    New data suggests that the human inclination toward feasting in groups is part of our deep evolutionary history

  12. In 1907, an American magazine suggested that drinking beer was a good way to get drunk.
