The Locavore Report: Woodstone Creek Straight Bourbon Whiskey

21 Aug 2008
bourbon.jpgWoodstone Creek's Straight Bourbon Whiskey, made locally in Norwood at Ohio's first microdistillery, debuted tonight at the Party Source's Craft Spirit Tasting event in Covington. 

Woodstone Creek is the first Ohio-made aged bourbon released since 1865. Bottles will be labeled with barrel number in limited edition releases one barrel at a time. Barrel #1 bottle #1 will be auctioned off September 6th at Gourmet Sensation to benefit Hospice of Cincinnati. 

Based on the quality of Woodstone Creek's Vodka, I intend to find a bottle soon.

Mecklenburg Gardens: Zinzinnati in Cincinnati

21 Aug 2008
bizSpot.jpgMecklenburg Gardens has been one of Cincinnati's finest institutions since its inception in 1865. Patrons, menus, and neighborhoods have changed, but this spot in Corryville* remains a delightful look into Cincinnati's past. The floor in front of the bar dips noticeably to reveal nearly 160 years of wear, and the wall is covered in photos of former patrons who seem to be saying "drink up!"

Javier's Dinner Service: Coming Soon

19 Aug 2008
If it seems like its been a long time since we talked about Javier's extending their hours for dinner and getting a liquor license, that's because it has.  Think January.  Before Taste of Cincinnati, before Opening Day, and even before the Great Blizzard of 08. 

However, The Cincinnati Blog is now reporting that Javier's dinner service and bar will be up and ready in the next few weeks. The hours don't look too shabby either, food service until 10pm and drinks until 2am.  We're not sure yet if these are hours Mon-Sun, but we sure hope so. We loves us some Javier's.

Address and map after the jump....

Aglamesis Bros. and Putz's Creamy Whip: Cincinnati Ice Cream Institutions

31 Jul 2008
BuyCincy would like to welcome the newest member of our team, Libby Andress.  Libby was born and raised in Cincinnati, but now lives in New York.  However, she still loves the city and its unique small businesses.  Welcome Libby!

aglamesis_bros.png

In the thick of summer I avoid the long lines at the more obvious and notorious ice cream establishments, in favor of some unique and treasured favorites. Aglamesis Brothers ice cream in Oakley and Montgomery, call it by just plain Aglamesis, has been enticing people well beyond my short life. The establishment just reached it's hundredth year, and has much of its original decor restored or preserved. I CRAVE the supremely dense chocolate shakes with homemade whipped cream and butter cookies, which I have been known to request in my father's infamous Aglamesis pick-ups.
