Re: Traeger or ?
Of course they do. Too bad some are way more informed than others, shame when one who has NEVER driven a Maybach, for example, thinks his "opinion" that Toyota Avalon, a car he does have, is somehow...

Re: Buffalo Trace or Eagle Rare
Eagle Rare IS Buffalo Trace. Just a part of their limited collection, not as limited as Stagg, of course, but part of that same family. Its a step up from the "regular" Buffalo Trace bottling and has...

Re: The Bourbon Thread!!
Most of what is known as "Bourbon" and what made Prohibition news was rye mash bills. Wheated mash bills were very few and in between, in general, although sales of Van Winkle for decades suffered...

Re: Traeger or ?
When it comes to pellet smokers/grills there is really no other choice than one between Rec-Tec and Yoder. The only "knock" on Rec-Tec is that save for the electronics its made in China (and so is...

Re: The Wine Thread
Lance, temp variation issues are overplayed, IMO. Wines are more than sturdy when aging. I do not recommend allowing them to go through wild temp swings, but even daily up and down swings of a few...

Re: The Wine Thread
You're preaching to the choir here, Moses. I was lambasted by the self appointed experts, both consumers and pros, when I pointed out that it is the acidity and not tannin that preserves wine after...

Re: Undercrown now shipping!!
Good cigar, IMO, complex and smooth. Not as strong as LPs. This was the 60 ring gauge, not my cup of tea, but a very good cigar nonetheless. Will try to find some Robustos now that I know what I am...

Re: The Wine Thread

Re: Turkish Coffee Drinkers?
