Snow Queen Vodka

A few months ago, Snow Queen vodka launched in Chicago. It's looking to take off in to the US at large and is being pushed by a company that knows its stuff.

Geom is one of the largest pure-vodka producers in the world and the largest in it's native country of Kazakhstan where it produces over 60 vodka products to the tune of 200 million bottles a year, in a country that is 9th largest in the world by area, but only has 15 Million people. You do the math.

The vodka itself is made of the famous, organic Kazakhstan wheat and then distilled five times through birch charcoal. It's then blended with water that has not only been softened, but has been through a multiple step process, including a sand filter and reverse-osmosis, to get the water as close to it's basest element as possible.

It's currently available in Illinois, Texas, Florida, Kansas, Nevada, North Carolina, Maryland, New Jersey, and New York. Coming soon to California, Colorado, and Connecticut. Retail price is around US$37.

Some thanks and virtual bartender

As of last week we averaged over 1,000 users per day. That's pretty damned cool. I'm surprised to see it myself considering how poor we rank on Technorati, but Performancing.com doesn't lie! In case you live under a rock, the Virtual Bartender are girls that do as you command, just like any good bartender does. They each have a huge list of commands and the most recent version has two girls. The shot pictured is them doing Star Wars. But they make out, shake ass, and many other things (no nudity, but plenty of cheesecake). They seem to do a lot of stuff except being able to make a martini. Brilliant.

Electric Martini Maker

Martini's are such a difficult concept that Waring thought they would make it easier on all of us. Okay, so I know that the reason for having this is for Coolness Value and not for the idea that you actually need a machine to mix your martini's. The Waring Pro Electric Martini Maker can take your concoction and do the tedious work of mixing it by either stirring or shaking, depending on which button you press. Remember kids, stir gin, shake vodka. The on light even has a green olive on it. But what if I want a twist?

Bluecoat Gin Review

The bottle of Bluecoat Gin arrived the other day and I ripped in to it with vigor. My newfound love for Gin has become boundless and when I get a new one I put it ahead of the line of all the other stuff that I still need to try and review. I was like a kid on Christmas Day, however I was heavily medicated and had to patiently bide my time until I was no longer popping pills in order to try it out lest my liver implode leaving a dark, black hole in my innards of Mickey Mantle proportions. How's it look? The bottle comes pretty much as advertised. It's a simple blue bottle with Bluecoat on it and a coat of arms. The cap is an easy-to-pull cork that did not make me do any sort of contortion in order to get it open. Thank you Bluecoat Gin! What's it smell like? One word: OhMyGod. This is far and away the best smelling gin I have ever put my nostrils to. The juniper and floral notes were amazing and did not take any time to get used to. Most gins require two whiffs: One...
