Some of the Aguardientes sold at The Liquor Cabinet

Aguardiente is an anise-flavoured liqueur derived from sugarcane, Very popular in the Andean region of Columbia,  Aguardiente has 24%–29% alcohol content. Aguardiente has maintained, since the Spanish era, the status of the most popular alcoholic beverage in the Andean regions of Colombia, with the notable exception of the Caribbean region, where rum is most popular. In general, aguardiente is rarely drunk in cocktails, and usually drunk neat. Here are some of the aguardientes offered at the Liquor Cabinet http://www.theliquorcabinetonline.com/Default.asp

Cristal is produced by Embotelladora Azuaya S.A. and has been offered for 45 years. As with Zhumir, Cristal grows the cane for its product in Azuay, and has its headquarters in Cuenca. The brand name Cristal refers to the complete clarity of the original aguardiente, which is visually indistinguishable from pure water.

My First Tequila Shot

The year was 1976, the location, Camp Zukeran, a Marine Corp Base near Koza City Okinawa. One Saturday afternoon, my friend Jose (whose nicknamed was Dog), and I trek of to Camp Zukeran post exchange liquor store. We were in search of some libations for the day. Dog picked up a bottle of Jose Cuervo, limes, salt and a six pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR). Being a country boy from a dry county in Georgia, I had never heard of nor drank any Tequila. I asked Dog what do we chase this Tequila with? Dog held up the six pack of PBR, the lime and salt.


Dog and I decided to drink the Tequila on a hill directly across from our barracks. We climbed the hill and Dog showed me the way Tequila should be drank. Dog took sliced lime, rubbed it on the space between his thumb and forefinger, sprinkle some salt salt on the space, took a shot of tequila, lick the salt then bite on the lime, followed by a sip of PBR. Okay this was easy, we did shots until the tequila and PBR was all done. Now we had to get down of the hill. We both were inebreated and there was know way we would be able to navigate ourselves down the hill without falling. So we did the next best thing, we slid down the hill, making our way to the bottom with a few bumps and bruises. My thanks to the Levi Jeans Company for making a strong durable product.


Tequila is a spirit made from the blue agave plant, primarily in the area surrounding the city of Tequila Mexico, northwest of Guadalajara Mexico, and in the highlands (Los Altos) of the western Mexican state of Jalisco. Agave tequila grows differently depending on the region. Blue agaves grown in the highlands region are larger in size and sweeter in aroma and taste. Agaves harvested in the lowlands, on the other hand, have a more herbaceous fragrance and flavor.


There are two basic categories of tequila: mixtos and 100% agave. Mixtos use no less than 51% agave, with other sugars making up the remainder. Mixtos use both glucose and fructose sugars.


With 100% agave tequila, blanco (white) or plata (silver) is harsher with the bold flavors of the distilled agave up front, while reposado and añejo are smoother, subtler, and more complex. As with other spirits that are aged in casks, tequila takes on the flavors of the wood, while the harshness of the alcohol mellows. The major flavor distinction with 100% agave tequila is the base ingredient, which is more vegetal than grain spirits (and often more complex).

Tequila is usually bottled in one of five categories:

* Blanco (white) or plata (silver): white spirit, un-aged and bottled or stored immediately after distillation, or aged less than two months in stainless steel or neutral oak barrels;
* Joven (young) or oro (gold): a mixture of blanco tequila and reposado tequila.
* Reposado (rested): aged a minimum of two months, but less than a year in oak barrels of any size;

Preminum Haiti Rums

When I think of Haiti, I am reminded of my sixth grade teacher Ms. Girtman. In 1968 at the segregated Peabody High and Elementary School in Eastman Georgia, Ms. Girtman taught our class about Toussaint Louverture and his role in the only successful slave revolt in the new world, leading Haiti to become the first free black republic in the world. independent country . My other thoughts of Haiti are their award winning Barbancourt rums.


I became acquainted with the Barbancourt rum when my friend who is of Haitian descent, would always bring me a bottle of the Barbancourt three star and a bottle of homemade Kremas when he traveled back to Haiti. For those not familiar with Kremas, it is a home made concoction consisting of rum, coconut, condensed milk and various spices.

Barbancourt rum is produced and bottled by Société du Rhum Barbancourt, T. Gardère & Cie. in Port-au-Prince Haiti. The company is one of Haiti's oldest and the rum is the Haiti most famous export. Barbancourt rums are widely regarded the finest rums in the world, having won many awards at numerous tastings competitions.

Barbancourt rum is double distilled, using a process similar to that used to produce cognac. Barbancourt is made directly from sugar cane juice rather than the sugar cane by-product molasses.

Barbancourt's Estate Réserve is aged for 15 years. This rum is extremely smooth and easily enjoyed on the rocks or straight. I enjoy just slow sipping this rum over ice. This rum retails at The Liquor Cabinet for just $39.99 plus sales tax.


One of the most popular Barbancourt rums at The Liquor Cabinet is the 5 Star Réserve Spéciale. The 5 star is aged for eight years. This rum is excellent just on the rocks, it is a very smooth for sipping or to mix your favorite cocktail. At the Liquor Cabinet, Barbancourt 5 Star rum retails for $22.99 plus sales tax.

Barbancourt also has a white rum made from fresh sugar cane juice. The Barbancourt white rum is good mixer for your favorite cocktails. Whether its a Cuba Libre, Mojito or caipirinha, this white rum from Barbancourt is an excellent cocktail choice.

The Original Mamajuana (no prescription needed)

So what is Mama Juana? Mamajuana is a drink from the Dominican Republic that is concocted by allowing rum, red wine, and honey to soak in a bottle with tree bark and herbs. The taste is quite similar to port wine and the color is a deep red. The specific herbs that make up Mamajuana were originally prepared as an herbal tea by the native Taino Indians and much later in time, post-Columbus, alcohol was added to the recipe. Besides being rumored to be an aphrodisiac, with many natives of the Dominican Republic claiming that the drink has similar effects, Mamajuana is also consumed for its medicinal value. The alcohol is said to act as an extract base that pulls the herbs' curative properties, creating an herbal tincture that is often served as a shot. The reported positive effects on health vary, ranging from a flu remedy, to a digestion and circulation aid, a blood cleanser and kidney and liver tonic.


Straight from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, The Original Dominican Specialty, Mamajuana is now availbale at The Liquor Cabinet for just $22.99 plus sales tax. No prescription is required to purchase this special product. You must be 21 years of age to drink this aphrodisiac. Drink responsible, family planning is strongly encouraged. Hope to see you soon at The Liquor Cabinet.

Change your Pace

Many folks have come by the store seeking out the white hennessy, in which I inform them the closest place to get white hennessy is about 75 miles away from the store. A fast boat will get you to Freeport Bahamas which have white hennessy. In the mean time, you may want to try Pisco Porton.


OK, I know, this isn't a cognac, but if you're looking for an interesting change of pace, Pisco Porton is the way to go. Distilled from grapes, pisco is closer to grappa or eau-de-vie, and on its own I find the flavor to be fruitier. In a mixed drink, such as the Pisco Sour, a daiquiri or mojito it makes the cocktail vibrant and tangy. Pisco will work well in any mixed cocktail or just neat on the rocks.

I'm not an expert on piscos, but my favorite right now is Porton -- it's delicate in some respects, almost floral in its tropical sweetness, while at the same time delivering quite a lot of peppery spice.

Pisco is from Peru. For over 300 years, Peruvians have been making Pisco. The Liquor Cabinet, West Palm Beach, Florida has Pisco on the shelf for $42.99 plus sales tax. For followers of our blogs, the price is $39.99 plus tax. Hope to see you soon.
