Epicoa’s Portable Wonder Grill

This Fall say goodbye to the days of the kettle grill at the football game. Tailgating just got easier, and healthier, with the new portable Epicoa Rotisserie Grill. This suitcase size grill can go anywhere from the football game to the family BBQ. It all packs into its own briefcase style shell. Each shell is customizable with any color combo you’d like, whether its your favorite team or not.

The battery-powered rotisserie system allows you to skewer more than seven different items at once – also keeping juices on your meat and away from the bottom of the grill. This means keeping carcinogens at an all time low (aka healthier) because they aren’t dripping to the bottom of your grill only to char up.

As Epicoa puts it, their product sets out to “free the grillers”. Free them from grilling, flipping, but not looking damn good while doing it. The automated skewer system allows you to walk away from the grill and enjoy your people. No more “flip anxiety” as Epicoa puts it!  But with a wicked grill like this you will all probably be standing around it anyway. One more perk is it’s extremely easy to clean. You can disassemble, pour out the charcoal and then clean out the shell. Everything goes back inside and you’re ready to go for your next event.

This fine piece of machinery will run you about $700 for the seven-skewer model. They also have a smaller five-skewer version for about $550. Visit Epicoa for more info.

Gins so good you’ll want to drink them neat
You might want to at least sip these gins before mixing with them
Tanqueray No 10

Gin is one of the only spirits that you see on a shelf, and regardless of the quality, you assume you’re going to take it home and mix it with other ingredients to make a cocktail. To many, the thought of drinking gin neat never even occurs to them. Even if they enjoy the juniper, floral, and botanical aromas and flavors of their favorite gin, they still prefer to mix it with other ingredients to make it more palatable.

But it also shouldn’t surprise you that some people enjoy drinking their gin neat or at least prefer a gin that they could drink neat if they chose to do so. Personally, I am one of those people. I enjoy gin so much that I try my best not to mask its flavors with overpowering ingredients. Sure, I like a good Gin & Tonic from time to time. But it’s definitely going to be heavier on gin than tonic if you know what I mean.

Sagamore Whiskey doubles down on Maryland roots with two new releases
Sagamore Whiskey is dropping two new expressions: one national high-rye bourbon, and one for America's 250th birthday.
Alcohol, Beverage, Liquor

Long before Kentucky bourbon took over the American whiskey conversation, Maryland was distilling quality juice: rye whiskey. The folks at Sagamore Whiskey have spent years trying to bring that legacy back, and this month it's making the case twice.

First off, the Baltimore-based company (which you may remember as Sagamore Spirit) is dropping a wide-release: Sagamore High Rye Straight Bourbon goes national July 1 at an SRP of $50.
