Road Trip!

I have never been a vodka drinker but this excerpt from Garden Rant sounds intriguing!

"If you have ever felt that white wine wastes your time, what with all that fruit and oak and dismally low alcohol content, this grape-based spirit will get you right down to business: it's crisp and dry and straight to the point.

I'm at the St. George Spirits distillery, which is located on a decommissioned naval base in Alameda, CA, working my way through a $15 tasting that they refer to as Basic Training."

Check out the rest of the garden rant post if you want to hear more! Really--this is definitely worth the click and read! She's funny!

I think I need to make a trip to Alameda! And I must get myself a copy of The Drunken Botanist when it comes out!
