Just like Ron Swanson, you know Lagavulin by it's official name: "Mother's Milk." One of the most awarded and critically acclaimed Single Malts of all time, Lagavulin has been known for its slow distillation and pear-shaped pot stills since 1816. Sitting on the coast of Kidalton, "in the hollow by the mill" as it translates in Gaelic, Lagavulin is known for being less peaty than neighbors like Laphroaig — partly because it's aged in bourbon barrels, so it has more of that vanilla, honey, and fruit. Offered by Diageo and part of its Classic Malts lineup, the 16-year is Lagavulin's entry level bottle and a collector's favorite. Do like they do on the floor of the malting room every September and open this bottle while listening to some live music, gently dancing the night away and singing right along.
You prefer to blaze a new trail rather than follow the beaten path, and Basil Hayden is your spirit guide. When the master distiller began mashing up the traditional corn base of his whiskey in 1796 by adding a dash of rye, he upset the bar cart by creating a new standard. Artfully aged at a relatively mild 80 proof, Basil Hayden's is as novel and delectable a small-batch bourbon as it was when he rolled out his first barrel over 200 years ago, but with broader appeal. Marked by a rich cascade of aromas and flavors, this is a now-classic Kentucky Straight Bourbon with a super interesting back story to gift your wedding party.
Robert Mondavi, the unequivocal Godfather of American Wine, is a name you likely recognize and for good reason. He put California wine on the map and his legacy of quality wines still lives on strong today. This rave reviewed Pinot Noir from the cool Carneros region blends fragrant sweet red cherry layered with smoke, spice and everything nice.
"Too much of anything is bad, but too much of a good whiskey is barely enough." Twain would have loved the double entendre of this stowaway coffee table, made from a genuine vintage whiskey barrel that once worked in a Tennessee distillery. Rustic, industrial, eco-friendly and an understatedly elegant way to add character to your home while showing off your passion for all things farm to fermented.
