Local Honey from the Rockefeller Center Farmer’s Market
Alcyone Tannat Dessert Wine; from Uruguay. A port-like wine we had with dessert Thursday night
Vinedo de los Vientos Brooklyn Buzz Mead made from NYC honey
Stranahan’s Colorado whiskey another small batch distiller, I thought about picking up a bottle of this when we were in Denver, but I did not want to have to check a bottle of whiskey and/or let the TSA drink it. Much easier to bring it on a train from New York than a plane from Colorado.
Bagpiper’s Scottish Ale; a fine example of the style from Pennichuck Brewing Company of Milford, NH.. Not too bitter, low carbonation, and it came in a 1 liter swing-top bottle!
Greylock Gin from Berkshire Mountain Distillers; sawe it in a liquor store on Madison Ave; one of my vendors had called to tell me that there was a problem with the credit card I gave him. I decided to test this assertion by buying some booze for my wife. (there was no problem).
And, lastly, the twelve-pound loaf of Lithuanian Rye bread from Silver Bell Bakery in Queens.

Pennichuck Brewing Company is in Milford, NH? That’s my home town! I’ll have to look for them when I’m up there visiting my parents in October.
