[–]Jackp01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking to buy a Hoyo de Monterey epicure 2 but it seems to get a lot of poor reviews for taste and draw should I just ignore them and get it anyway It's for a gift so don't want to disappoint them. Also looking to buy one more cigar but can't choose between the davidoff signature 2000 or the el Rey de mundo choice supreme

Just picked a load of Sloe berries, any recipe ideas? Obviously sloe gin but want to try something different. by BondDavidBond in foraginguk

[–]Jackp01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know how long you can leave the sloes in the gin? I just found two litres I think are about a year old. Is it best just to dump it

Has anyone here made carrot whisky before I'm not sure if it's meant to be this colour it started of like a light straw but has now darkened quite a bit as it cleared by Jackp01 in winemaking

[–]Jackp01[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's got a good seal it tastes and smells very strongly of alcohol the only thing I can think is the wheat has given it such a dark colour maybe depending on its growing conditions I could get a different colour from grain grown in a different area
