And One must give it a try, it is OH SO GOOD, Thanks Daniel With the explosion in popularity of American Whiskey, other spirit categories have tried to ride whiskey’s coattails with crossover offerings aimed squarely at whiskey consumers. The most common way for non-whiskey brands to do this is with oak, namely via the now extremely pervasive “Black Barrel”. Basically, by extra-aging a spirit in a deeply charred barrel, that spirit gets an infusion of strong oak and color, and seemingly, instant whiskey consumer friendliness. Hornitos Black Barrel Anejo Tequila takes the standard Hornitos anejo tequila aged for a year in traditional oak barrels and then finishes that tequila in heavily charred American Oak casks for four months, and then moves it to a toasted American Oak barrel for another two months. The aim here is to get some deep color and oak from the heavily charred barrel and then additional sweetness from the toasted oak barrel. The entry for Hornitos Black Barrel is oak forward, but it has some sense of balance with roasted agave, black pepper, and caramel. It’s really here in the entry where this tequila is at its best. As we move on to the midpalate, the pepper spice increases, ultimately outpacing the oak. The midpalate is all about pepper kick – it’s black pepper, white pepper, clove, habanero, and then oak. There is an undercurrent of sweet agave to help balance all this spice out and it does a fair job of it, until the end of the midpalate when the spice and heat overtake everything else.

Sticks and Stones Eagle. but the real question is what really hurts ? I have to work at almost 60 to afford my insurance, 5 years ago I did not and could retire at 55. I am also tired of this debate, but honestly it is a meaningful discussion for all who choose to read it. we differ in many area,s in politics, but is that not what is so great about the USA. Oh believe me I have the food choices, but when I go to the store to buy grocery's and stand in line behind a family that two has carts of grocery's, and pays for them with food stamps. then when I go out put my two or three bags of grocery's in my car and watch this family unload their grocery's into a brand new caddy, I have issues, then when all the grocery's they paid for with food stamps 413.00 dollars to be exacts with food stamps, so much they could not fit them into the brand new caddy they put the rest into a brand new dodge charger of the daughter, still with dealers plates I have real problem, and you can not tell me you would not have issues with this. It happens almost every time I go to the store these days. You would be pissed off just like I am. The other day I needed to go visit the doctor for my annual check up and waited behind this family of Hispanic or Mexican people, they had all the kids get shots to go school, and when it came time to pay for the shots they presented a card from the government for payment. I had to pay almost 1500 dollars to have my stress test and upper GI tests. the mother of this family did not pay one dollar. She had government sponsored healthcare at yours and my expense. I am sick and tired of this happening when I know the father works a full time job with insurance, and the mother also has part time cleaning business, but yet they pay nothing WTF ?

Ok Eagle I am on your side here, I can not stand Neo Nazi's, or what they believe, The holocaust was horrific, The German people are still trying to live down the past almost 80 years later. When there is such division in congress you can not accomplish anything. The facts remain that we are better off now than we were only a few short months ago. Trump is one arrogant bastard, I don't like his tweets. but he is right about the Media. As reference to Charlottesville, it takes two sides to Tango and none of this would have happened if the BLM would not have shown up in the same strength as those idiots from radical right. Like I stated many times, I am middle of the road, But believe that we now are a much stronger nation under this administration. economically, foreign policy, and respected around the world, but the Media would have you believe we are not. that is itself quite comical, just look at how fast the fat little idiot in Korea backed down when really confronted, Kind of of reminds me of the Bay of Pigs.. I believe that we should say the pledge every day in school like we did, I believe that we should have the time prayer for those who want to pray in school. I believe that we should always stand and pay respect to the flag and the National Anthem of United States , I believe that all the memorial's in which this county was founded should be left in place and not taken from courthouses, National monuments, and when I put my hand on the bible in a courtroom I believe we should we state the words, I will tell the truth You do affirm that all the testimony you are about to give in the case now before the court will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, I don't like it when the Mexican people here fly the Mexican flag above the US flag, but take every advantage of the freedoms that My son fights to protect, and taking down statues of the history of US is stupid, The civil war shaped this country, and made it into the powerhouse it became. Martin Luther King was a good man and he believed that a Black man should have the same rights as any man, I agree. but they should not play the I am so mistreated card because they really are not any more mistreated than they wish to be, by their own actions.

Look at the volume on the up side Eagle since the election, goodness this is not even an argument of any kind. The only high volume during Obama was on the down side. look at the small business index. look at consumer confidence index all since the election, then back into the Obama administration OK. Look at how strong the dollar is around the world on those index's as well OK
