A FEW WORDS FROM GARY

Dear friends,

"The Reason."

Customers who know how to use us seem to want to know what our favorites are. What vodka do we like? What's our favorite beer? What tequila do we recommend? The answer is ALWAYS the same.....how are you planning to enjoy this item?  Beer, for example, would have dozens of answers to this question.  Mowing the lawn, sitting by a fire or eating sushi are three different answers.  I have a great beer that is perfect with chocolate cake, but would not do well with a hamburger.  

What are you doing with vodka? Are you sipping it straight on the rocks, making a martini or mixing it with something?  Hangar One is a great sipping vodka, but a waste of money if you mix it with something.  Tito's Vodka makes a killer vodka mojito because it's made from sweet corn.

Tequila has the same parameters.  Are you shooting it, sipping it or making a margarita?  A professional hint: some leading tequilas are NOT made with 100% agave.  The brands that are not agave are blended with alcohol made from sugar cane.  This type of tequila can cause stomach cramps.  The margarita mix, combined with Tequila is too much sugar.  Tequila made with 100% agave will not have this effect.

Come on in and let us enhance your libation experience.

 

 

Thank you and Go Rams,
