Jack Rudy Small Batch Tonic

Instructions for a Gin & (Rudy) tonic grace the side of the bottle.

Ransom Old Tom Gin

This old tom gin is more than just a pretty bottle.  It’s barrel aged and flavored with juniper berries, orange & lemon peel, coriander, [...]

Smoke & Stout Caramel Bar

We both love caramel… especially when the sweetness of it is toned down.

Here, deep dark caramel has complex, malty notes from the chocolate stout.  It works beautifully with the bitterness of the smoke.  And, there’s this perfectly tiny touch of salt.  That hint of salt works to highlight the [...]

Americana Huckleberry Soda

Americana Huckleberry Soda

Finally, a soda that tastes like what it claims to be.  This soda has a true huckleberry (or, wild blueberry) flavor.  At 160 calories, it is quite sweet.  But, the blend of huckleberry and elderberry give this soda real sweet/tart berry flavor with a lovely little floral [...]

Fentiman's

Fentiman’s Shandy & Mandarin Orange Jigger

We both loved the Shandy.  And, the Mandarin Orange Jigger was “interesting”.

Lotsa Potato, Little Tuna

It’s a good thing we like a good dose of heat because this Tunisian Tuna sandwich was swimming in harissa.  In the past, we’ve [...]

Boyd & Blair

Smooth, creamy, and clean with a perfect dose of sweetness to help it go down like clear liquid magic, this is dangerously good potato vodka.  As you take a sip, you inhale a whisper of caramel sweetness that’s just barely there.

Without a doubt, this is the best vodka we’ve [...]

Innis & Gunn

Innis & Gunn Oak Aged Beer

The depth and complexity of oak is mellowed by the sweet vanilla, burnt sugar and hints of rum.

We both loved it.  But, there’s more than a touch of sweetness to this beer.

Barolo Chinato
(Antica Ricetta di Giulio Cocchi)

This Barolo Chinato was an instant grab.  Instant Win.  Cocchi Barolo Chinato makes a lovely after-dinner digestif to sip… as well as a delicious addition to many cocktails.  The sharp (yet well-rounded) bite it adds can make a great cocktail even better.  Or, it [...]

DBA BBQ

Pulled Pork Sandwich with sweet potato fries

The Pork

The tender, succulent interior is perfectly crusted with a nicely charred shell of smoky deliciousness.

The Sweet Potato Fries

Close to perfection — I think these are the best sweet potato fries in Atlanta right now.  The salt, pepper and [...]
