the first shipment to CA will land in SF tomorrow or Friday, weather permitting. The truck is coming from NJ so there's a lot of country to transverse. In CA call Bock for the store nearest you. 415.834.9675. A shipment arrived yesterday in DC. Orders are being processed for FL, TX, WA and LA. NY and NJ will be available Feb 1. Still jumping through the hoops in LA and AZ. I look forward to seeing your comments. And although the main interest appears to be 151, the 86 proof is pretty good too. |

Last night at Tiki Ti (sadly no photos to follow because my phone completely shattered the morning of): -Ray's Mistake That was actually my first time having a Mistake. I tried to not let the hype alter my opinions. I will say its a good drink but I'm not sure the Great One that so many people speak of. I am curious however to give our recipe from the forums a try. |

What a coincidence -I was thinking about an “El Diablo” cuz I found a bottle of ginger beer next to a half full bottle of tequila in my bar. Now I’ll have to try one with ginger ale as well. Here’s the Trader Vic El Diablo. El Diablo Juice from 1/2 lime Squeeze lime into hiball glass-drop in shell. |

A couple of “Jerks”, the house specialty at Minnie’s in Modesto,Calif. Not bad if you like frozen drinks. The barkeep was somewhat secretive about the ingredients but she did warn me that the straw was filled with 151. Was tempted to have a third but we wanted to check out the Tiki Cocktail Lounge just up the street. Btw, I have had Mai Tai’s at Minnies. The tiki ambience at Minnies is awesome but most of the tiki cocktails are forgettable. I’ll continue to visit Minnies for it’s tikiness and the most excellent Chinese fare served in the attached restaurant. [ Edited by: nui 'umi 'umi 2015-01-21 21:42 ] |

A ’44 Mai Tai and a Longboard beer. My better half had a Mai Tai and a Menehune Juice. We’re at Trader Vic’s Emeryville. Imho, this place should be a national shrine. |

Off topic, but how is that one? I love his earliest albums but find all the "Life" series ones to be too loungey and not exotic enough for my tastes. I actually just saw this one in a shop yesterday but picked up Denny's "Forbidden Island" with the foil lettering and tiki cover instead. |

I have, and it's delicious. In fact, I've tried everything on the Hurricane menu. I find myself making his Mai-Kai tributes more often than anything else. Mahalo Hurricane! The Black Magic is by far my favorite though. Just something amazingly unique about that drink, if it's done right. For the record, I use Hawaiian Isles Kona Classic for the coffee (double strength, just under an oz; World Market carries it), and Monin honey syrup for the honey. I find these 2 ingredients really bring a lot to this cocktail, for my taste. |

Mahalo for all the kind words! Of course, all the inspiration comes from a certain establishment on Federal Highway in Fort Lauderdaele. Tonight, we entered a new era... Two 151 Swizzles, passing of the torch from Goslings 151 (right, standing in for the previous standard 151 Demerara rum, Lemon Hart) to the new contender, Hamilton Demerara Overproof 151 (left). My quick review: The Hamilton rum adds a richer, smokier flavor that was missing with Goslings. I can taste extra heat that even Lemon Hart didn't provide, along with those familiar Demerara flavor notes. Okole maluna!

My delivery of the Hamilton Demeraras are en route, but in the meantime, my pursuit of replacing (yellow label) Lemon Hart 151 was already in motion. Today I drew 10 ounces off a small barrel of El Dorado 151 that had been aging 15 days. It tasted great so I thought I might keep some going to see if it could be even better. Great, but nothing like LH 151 flavor-wise. This is all about oak and much mellower than the original ED 151, but unquestionably demerara.
Okay, so the reason I am posting on this thread is because here is what I am drinking now - and it's killing! I made a Mai Tai with my aged El Dorado 151 with a float of Hamilton Black Jamaican. I am sure that once I get a hold of the Hamilton Demerara 151, I will be floating that on my Mai Tais, but for right now, this is working way more than fine. Oh, but this is also a knockout.... woooo!
Cheers! |
