A wee dram of rye as a nightcap.

I have been following up on Al's aquavit cocktail recipes. The smoke and mirrors is 1 1/4 oz of Aquavit and Campari and 3/4 oz Cynar. The Norwegian Wood is 1 oz Aquavit and Applejack, 3/4 oz Italian vermouth and 1/4 oz Yellow Chartreuse. The Rosalind Russell is 2 oz aquavit and 1 oz Dubonnet Blanc. My measuring ability steadily decreases as the night wears on so in reality the latter method is what actually occurs.

Smoke and Mirrors

Only God and George Burns know for sure.

I resemble this remark.

Well the Rosalind Russell was a good take on a Martini. Will have to experiment with some other vermouth and vermouth like ingredients. Now going with a Norwegian Wood Well the answer is yes. It is good.

A Rosalind Russell, Dames!

Excellent news Scott.

Romance Cocktail

I like this answer the best.

F.B.I. Fizz

The question is, if given a choice, which year is supposed o be better?

Aargh

Question: Norton Reserva Malbec, 2007 or 2008?

Ben, Happy Birthday

I would really prefer CanJam at GABF.

Meh!

Bryan, you constantly impress. How old are you really? Good luck on the interviews.

I do a lot of macro imaging in my research and it was no contest going with a Nikon system. As mentioned the 105 is incredible and the 60mm still has the flattest field of any 35mm macro lens AFAIK.

That sounds like a great trip Al. Don't miss Negroni in Munich.

That is a nice haul on the cocktail reference library Shelly. The FBI fizz looks good. I will give it a try tonight. I also like the look of the romance Al. That will be the second for tonight. Yay for Head-case cocktails!
