Today we're celebrating the first time bourbon was distilled way back in the late 1700s, well, legend says it was - whatever the case, any reason will do right? 🥃 Do you know the difference between Bourbon and Whiskey? Bourbon is a special kind of American whiskey made from at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak barrels for at least two years. How are you going to celebrate? 🥳 Mix yourself a Bourbon Old Fashioned. A classic, of course, but always amazing. This drink includes bourbon, bitters, water, sugar, and a garnish of orange peel. Interesting fact 🔍In 1964, US Congress declared bourbon a distinctive American product and many trade agreements require that, to be called bourbon, a whiskey must be made in the USA. While it can be made anywhere in the USA, most bourbon still comes from Kentucky, where the limestone-rich water adds a unique flavor. While it is true that all bourbons are whiskey, not all whiskeys are bourbon. Cheers 🥃 #happybourbonday #nationalbourbonday #oldfashioned #americanspirit #yourlocalmerchant #rototuna #hamiltonnz

The modern version of the Cosmopolitan is credited to the gay bars of San Francisco in the 70's & 80's before making it's way to New York in 1989 courtesy of a couple of key bartenders. Cosmos were made famous, of course, by TV show Sex & the City and Carrie Bradshaw. At the end of the series they question why they ever stopped drinking them and it poses the question, why did any of us? Excellent when balanced, refreshing and beautifully pink. Time for a revival we think 🥳 🍸 #cosmopolitanday #kegliquor #yourlocalmerchant #shoplocal #rototuna

It may be a bit of a maze to get to us at the moment, but let's face it - how many liquor stores in Hamilton boast their very own Mini-golf green? ⛳ Our birthday bash is in full swing, with giveaways (check out our last post to see how you could win some sweet prizes), yum tastings and now we're having a bit of fun. Sure, the original plan was an outdoor green in the BARREN parking lot, but the rain is ruining our groove. Come try your hand at a hole-in-one, and who knows, you may snag a neat little prize. #birthdaybash #2yearsold #constructionchallenge #howtomakethemostofash*ttysituation
