1 September 20231 September 2023 ~ Robbie ~ 2 Comments

Echt Liquor Lab in Pittsburgh received TTB label approval in June for two rums they’re labeling as “agricole”. Let’s look at the labels and see what might be confusing.

This probably won’t be my best written article as it’s been re-written and re-structured several times, so please bear with me.

This afternoon I took a pre-GABF tour of @lawswhis This afternoon I took a pre-GABF tour of @lawswhiskey . 

1: The distillery and the expansion that will house a new visitor center when complete.
2: Grain storage.
3: Mashing.
4: Fermenters.
5: Stripping still 
6: Spirit still (the original still).
7: Spent grain.
8: Specially numbered casks.
9: The flight included with the tour.
10: The flight I got later.

I didn't feel the bourbon stood out, but the rye and the Calvados finished bourbon were both good (the rye was my favorite, and the older and cask finished ryes I bought later were even better).

The focus this week is going to be on beer thanks The focus this week is going to be on beer thanks to #gabf2023 , but that doesn't mean I can't start out the right way.. with cocktails at a local tiki bar! 

@adriftdenver is a cool little bar with plenty of rum and good cocktails. I had a mai tai (the whale) and a painkiller (the pineapple).

I'm on my way to Denver for #gabf2023 and the Rare I'm on my way to Denver for #gabf2023 and the Rare Beer Tasting on Friday. Who else will be there?

I'm at GABF on Thursday and the AHA member session on Saturday.
This is a 4 YO @kingscountydistillery single barre This is a 4 YO @kingscountydistillery single barrel pick from @elementalspirits.co bottled at 62.3%.

This is actually my first time buying or drinking a King's County release, and I'm impressed. This is a great barrel. I can also recommend their "Guide to Urban Moonshining" book as a fun read. 

Trivia: their original stills are now at Roulaison distillery in New Orleans. Roulaison also uses many ex-King's County casks to age their rums. Andrew, their distiller, once worked at King's County.
