        • Glenmorangie 12 Quinta Ruban

        • Description

        • The darkest and most intense whisky in the extra-matured range, Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban has spent 10 years maturing in American white oak casks before being transferred into specially selected ruby port pipes from the Quintas or wine estates of Portugal. Extra maturation in these port pipes develops Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban into a voluptuous spirit with a complex balance of sweet and dry flavours and an intriguing contrast of smooth and crisp, cooling textures. Non chill-filtered for additional aroma and mouthfeel.

                          • Feren OS

                          • Feren OS is based on Linux Mint. What makes it one of the most visually attractive Linux distro is its tweaked Cinnamon desktop environment. It promises to deliver an experience that’ll match or beat the aesthetics of MacOS and Windows operating systems. Feren OS is a rolling release Linux distribution. The look and feel is familiar: There are a Windows-like start button and taskbar that have all the useful icons. The start menu is intuitively designed, as clicking on an option opens a submenu. The Theme Changer tool lets you play with icons, setup, background, etc. Feren OS, apart from being a beautiful Linux distribution and fully loaded with eye candy, is familiar and innovative. Also, it has a familiar desktop scheme, clean, flat design, modern environment and is beginner friendly.

                            • Notes:  In Montana, we have a pastime bar game called shake-a-day. Each day at your favorite watering hole, you get one opportunity to throw fifty cents into a pot with hopes of rolling five of a kind and winning a pocket full of cash! This favorable risk to reward is our inspiration for brewing this aggressive, american style ipa. Brewed with pacific nw and australian hop varieties, bright aromas and resinous pine dominate the palate. The clean, well-attenuated finish has enough body to leave you wanting another roll of the dice.

The goal of this project is to make creating and maintaining a Home Theater PC as simple as possible. A blank system can be transformed to a fully functional HTPC in around 20 minutes. “We feel the product should work like an appliance and not require a lot of upkeep, while still allowing expansion and customization. Most of the system configuration, operation and even installs can be accomplished using only a remote control. However, if you are a person that likes to tinker and work directly with the OS that option is still available. All the configuration wizards can be disabled to avoid overwriting custom work.”

                                              • Ingredients

                                              • 1/8 cup finely chopped green onion

                                              • 3 cups chicken stock

                                              • 24 (3.5 inch square) wonton wrappers

                                              • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh ginger root

                                              • 1 teaspoon finely chopped green onion

                                              • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce

                                              • 1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine

                                              • 1 teaspoon brown sugar

                                              • 2 ounces peeled shrimp, finely chopped

                                              • 1/2 pound boneless pork loin, coarsely chopped

                                              • Directions

                                              • FOR SOUP: Bring the chicken stock to a rolling boil. Drop wontons in, and cook for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onion, and serve. Place about one teaspoon of the filling at the center of each wonton skin. Moisten all 4 edges of wonton wrapper with water, then pull the top corner down to the bottom, folding the wrapper over the filling to make a triangle. Press edges firmly to make a seal. Bring left and right corners together above the filling. Overlap the tips of these corners, moisten with water and press together. Continue until all wrappers are used. In a large bowl, combine pork, shrimp, sugar, wine, soy sauce, 1 teaspoon chopped green onion and ginger. Blend well, and let stand for 25 to 30 minutes. NOTES: Uncooked wontons will keep in freezer for a good 2 months if well wrapped. Thaw before frying, if you just want fried wontons, but they can be boiled straight from frozen for the soup, and cooked 2 minutes longer. TO FRY: Heat 2 to 3 cups of oil in a wok until hot. Deep-fry wontons in batches until golden, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Drain. Serve with dipping sauce or duck sauce, also called plum sauce.

                                              • Smells of rich, sweet notes and grain with a slightly heavier wood. The taste is slightly sweet, flavorful, and creamy with mild oak, vanilla and even a touch of spice. It finishes warm and rich. Distilled from 100% locally sourced organic corn. 2016 American Craft Spirit Associations Silver Medal. Appearance: It’s light, but still hued appropriately. More honey yellow than amber. Decent sticky legs. Nose: Honey and corn. Vanilla, grainy, grassy. Slight warm alcoholic twinge, but not a burn. Sweet and smooth. Taste: Corn, corn, corn. Sweet corn. A warm heat builds in the middle, and eases off to oaky vanilla, a dry woodiness, and corn syrup. There’s a little cherry fruit in there as well, and a touch of smoke. Not a long finish, but a grainy/grassy taste remains. It’s sweet, but not sticky. The flavors of the oak add a floral vanilla essence, and the heat helps cut through the sweetness. Very well balanced.
