Bakon Vodka

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

No, that’s not a typo. Bakon Vodka ($30) is a new premium-quality potato vodka infused with a savory bacon flavor. Distilled from Idaho potatoes and possessing a perfect hint of peppery bacon flavor. Great in a bloody mary, good when paired with scotch, not so hot in a white russian — unless you like the way they taste on the way back up — but what we really, really want is a recipe for a bacon cheeseburger.

TY KU White Sake

Friday, March 5th, 2010

Handmade using traditional Japanese brewing techniques and the finest ingredients — pristine water sourced from the Oirase River in Northern Japan, Yamada Nishiki rice, handmade koji, and proprietary yeast strains — TY KU White ($150) is a high-end, Daiginjo-rated sake that’s sure to liven up your next sushi dinner. Brewing of the White stuff is overseen by legendary sakemaster Yoishio Koizumi, and its small batch nature combined with its striking, sleek white bottle make it a great gift, as well, whether it’s for a friend, family member, or angry Yakuza.

The Portside Flask

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

We’re fans of nautical threads, so why not other accessories? The Portside Flask ($30) takes its design cues from the portholes on sea-faring vessels, with a window that lets you see the beverage inside. Made from stainless steel with a screw-off top, it holds up to 4 oz. of your favorite liquor.

Jail House Fire Hot Sauce

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

We’ve tried plenty of sauces that were criminally hot, but never one made by actual criminals. Jail House Fire Hot Sauce ($7) is created by inmates at the Hillsborough County Jail in Tampa, FL and comes in three burning flavors — Original, made from a recipe of peppers and spices, the chipotle-based Smoke, and No Escape, the prisoners’ hottest creation yet. In addition, all profits go to support equipment and supplies for inmate programs, so you’re helping to offer someone a second chance with each bottle purchased.
