Book Description

We had an amazing start of the year with a very busy drinks competition judging season and the third annual gathering of the Council of Whiskey Masters - and both of us as examination chairmen at this historical event. The first ever Master of Whiskey exams (Level 4) were a success and our visit to the Isle of Raasay and eponymous distillery was just joy. Raasay DIstillery is a must visit if one is visiting Skye it is a must to go over to Raasay. Avoid missing out on something special and take the ferry over to see Alasdair and the team. At this years Swiss Spirits Review we got many amazing entries to talk about and there are some beautiful new releases and discoveries from our work at International Drinks Specialists in our Editor’s Choice. We continue to grow and welcome new contributors including the legendary Joe Micallef as cultural editor. We also feel that we must mention our very talented art director Elani doing a wonderful job with designing our magazine and working with us so nicely. Thank you!

The national bestseller that turns you into “an expert at pairing wine with just about anything, from pizza and Lucky Charms to pad thai and Popeye’s” (Maxim). Featured on Today and CBS This Morning Named one of the best books of the year by Food & Wine, Saveur, and Town & Country Sancerre and Cheetos go together like milk and cookies. The science behind this unholy alliance is as elemental as acid, fat, salt, and minerals.

Building upon the outsize success of her weekly column in Grub Street, Price offers delightfully bold wine and food pairings alongside hilarious tales from her own unlikely journey as a Kentucky girl making it in the Big Apple and in the wine business. Using language everyone can understand, she reveals why each dynamic duo is a match made in heaven, serving up memorable takeaways that will help you navigate any wine list or local bottle shop. Charmingly illustrated and bubbling with personality, Big Macs & Burgundy will open your mind to the entirely fun and entirely accessible wine pairings out there waiting to be discovered—and make you do a few spit-takes along the way. “The book explores all different kinds of combinations, including breakfast pairings like avocado toast and Rueda Verdejo, pairings for entertaining like shrimp cocktail & Valdeorras Godello, and even some pairings with popular Trader Joe’s items.” —Food & Wine “A smart, useful guide to drinking the world’s great wine, whether you’re pairing it with foie gras or Fritos.” —Town & Country

Book Description

A glass of wine. A shot of whiskey. A touch of lipstick and irresistible cowboys. Sexiness overload in this long-awaited and highly anticipated sequel to Wine, Whiskey, & Lipstick. Dillyn Anderson should have waited a couple more months to divorce her cheating ex-husband; then she would have been known as a widower instead of a divorcee. Her ex was a dirty dealer, a liar, and a cheat, but that was his story, not Dillyn’s. She was determined to build a better and simpler life in Summer, Tennessee. Far away from the chaos of New York and falling in love was not part of the plan–until she met him. Benjamin “Ben” Cash filled his days in the sleepy town of Summer on his family’s ranch, trying desperately to forget an unspeakable tragedy. That is until he meets Dillyn Anderson. Her beguiling smile and hauntingly beautiful eyes caught his attention, and eventually captured his heart. Together, they discovered that happily ever after was not just a fairytale–it was within reach. Too bad darker forces stood in the way. Dillyn had something they wanted, and this unknown enemy would stop at nothing to get it. Can Ben protect not only Dillyn, but his growing family from impending danger? Find out in the explosive follow-up to Wine, Whiskey, & Lipstick. This book includes mature themes and content that may not be suitable for all audiences; some situations may be triggering.

Book Description

Collected primarily in metropolitan New York and Philadelphia during the classic era of black street poetry (i.e., during the late 1960s and early 1970s) these raps, signifyings, toasts, boasts, jokes and children's rhymes will delight general readers as well as scholars. Ranging from the simple rhymes that accompany children's games to verbally inventive insults and the epic exploits of traditional characters like Shine and Stagger Lee, these texts sound the deep rivers of culture, echoing two continents. Onwuchekwa Jemie's introductory essay situates them in a globally pan-African context and relates them to more recent forms of oral culture such as rap and spoken word.

He’s got a history of bad decisions—is he finally about to make the right one? Jesse Hargreaves can’t outrun his notorious bad boy reputation. Betrayed by a woman he trusted, he retreats to his hometown, Wirralong, to serve as his brother’s best man and rebuild his life. But change isn’t easy, and it’s even harder when Jesse has to fight his fierce attraction to the maid of honour—a woman well aware of the darkness in his past. Beautician Serenity Strachan’s flippant one-liners and vibrant hair colours are armour to protect her fragile heart. She’s always crushed on Jesse, but she’s determined to keep him and his sordid past at an arm’s length. That’s easier said than done when Jesse asks Serenity to help renovate an old property. And when they're trapped underground in a tunnel cave-in, their emotional barriers fall faster than the tunnel walls. When rescue arrives, they question their new emotional intimacy. Can Serenity trust this new Jesse with her heart? And can Jesse trust that Serenity will ignore the lure of a fortune to keep his secrets safe?

Book Description

Here Scruton explains the connection between good wine and serious thought with a heady mix of humour and philosophy. We are familiar with the medical opinion that a daily glass of wine is good for the health and also the rival opinion that any more than a glass or two will set us on the road to ruin. Whether or not good for the body, Scruton argues, wine, drunk in the right frame of mind, is definitely good for the soul. And there is no better accompaniment to wine than philosophy. By thinking with wine, you can learn not only to drink in thoughts but to think in draughts. This good-humoured book offers an antidote to the pretentious clap-trap that is written about wine today and a profound apology for the drink on which civilisation has been founded. In vino veritas.
