Preparation...

- Independence day Chilli Dog @pittcueTrailer Pure filth! @ Pitt Cue Trailer instagr.am/p/MqsI8moR7J/
'Aperitif' - A sort of Mint Julep
Evan Williams Mint Julep-alike to kick off tonight's Vinopolis #twetasting http://pic.twitter.com/El1UEhWl- @WhiskyExchange #twetasting Independence Day special! Evan Williams Mint Dulep on arrival! #tastingnotes 51% minimum corn to be a Bourbon!
- Normally I'd go with crushed ice and a sticky slick of granulated sugar at the bottom of a silver cup when making a julep, but for a longer, more liquid version of the cocktail we mixed up Evan Williams with some simple syrup and mint and stirred it down over blocks of ice.

- Quite a lot of Evan Williams...
#twetasting lineup with gesticulating Bolton to the rear http://pic.twitter.com/LaS08G7EWhisky #1 - Georgia Moon (Corn)
Georgia Moon corn whiskey "guaranteed less than 30 days old" Creamy flax nose, palate surprisingly unharsh #twetasting http://pic.twitter.com/YXr8K0N4Whiskey #3 - Bernheim Original (Wheat)
Controversial #twetasting order change! Straight to No.3, Bernheim Wheat whiskey http://pic.twitter.com/lUtqdViT- Bernheim showing very well at #twetasting, rich and silky but with a pleasingly hot raw edge #herbaceous
Whiskey #2 - Old Fitzgerald 12 (Wheated Bourbon)
Back to No.2, and it's Old Fitzgerald 12, wheat recipe bourbon! Excited, never had this one before #twetasting http://pic.twitter.com/Ju7bx9Te- @SilvieJane As of now, Old Fitz 12. Likely to be my fave of the night, the perfect style for me, tho' just on the turn woodwise #twetasting
