Sigur Rós with the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Walt Disney Concert Hall - 2017

I’ve seen Sigur Rós a few times over the years. They are always fantastic but this one in particular was skin tingling magic.

Perfume and cologne should be discovered and not announced. I should only be able to smell it if I’m within your personal bubble, not just passing by on the street.

An Old Pal - which is a minor variation of a Boulevardier

• 1 ounce Rye
• 1 ounce Campari
• 1 ounce dry Vermouth
• Served straight up garnished with a twist of lemon

If I can find it, Time Release is fantastic and should be on everyone’s must try list

• 1.5 ounces Dry Gin
• 1 ounce White Port
• 0.5 ounce Sloe Gin
• 0.25 ounce Yellow Chartreuse
• Stirred not shaken, served straight up, garnished with a cherry

Great sipper that changes in flavor significantly as it warms up. Most places don’t have White Port on hand and few have Sloe Gin on hand so can be difficult to get at a bar.
