AeroPress just dropped an exciting new color today, just in time for National Coffee Day tomorrow, 9/29. The newest Walnut collection debuted today, featuring the AeroPress Premium Walnut and AeroPress Walnut Manual Grinder – both made with solid clear-grade walnut.

Designed to add a beautiful look to your kitchen counter, not the cabinet, the Walnut collection delivers the signature AeroPress experience coffee lovers know and love while bringing elevated design and everyday functionality to the forefront. I’m a huge fan of Walnut finishes on everything, so I was super excited when I heard about this launch. With the holiday season approaching, this could be a wonderful gift for the coffee lover in your life, too.

“The kitchen has become a place where function and personal style come together, and we believe your coffee setup should be a part of that,” said AeroPress CEO Gerard Meyer. “Instead of something you tuck away in the cabinet, the AeroPress Premium Walnut and Walnut Manual Grinder are designed to be proudly displayed on one’s countertop, to make a statement and serve as a centerpiece for coffee lovers.”

“Wood felt like a natural way to bring warmth and more character to a product our fans already love, while staying true to our roots,” added David Cole, CMO of AeroPress. “With the holiday gifting season around the corner, the new Walnut Collection allows us to offer an even broader range of options for coffee enthusiasts. Whether someone is drawn to the natural materials and craftsmanship of the Walnut Collection or prefers our sleek glass & metal Premium Silver, Black, or White colorways and our all-metal Manual Grinder, there’s a perfect gift for every brewing style and aesthetic.”

Tequila vs. vodka: Exploring the key differences between two popular spirits
Vodka

I’ve been writing about spirits for almost two decades. I’ve learned the ins and outs of every popular hard alcohol. But if you’re new to the spirits world, you might not know the differences between tequila and vodka. Tequila vs. vodka –this is especially true when both are unaged. In appearance alone, the two spirits look remarkably similar. When made with high-quality ingredients, distilled multiple times, and filtered a handful of times, both tequila and vodka are crystal clear. There aren’t any noticeable differences. The same could be said for a bottle of gin or a glass of tap water.

Once you take a whiff, the differences begin to reveal themselves. Unaged (or blanco) tequila carries aromas like vegetal sweetness, cooked agave, vanilla, and cracked black pepper. Vodka has different aromas based on its main ingredient (wheat, rye, corn, potatoes, or something else), but you can bet you find scents of neutral ethanol, minerality, vanilla, cracked black pepper, and even citrus peels.
