I was making bleu cheese olives for some martinis the other day and realized that the pimientos I was pulling out to replace with cheese weren’t real chunks of pimiento, but a puréed pimiento paste held together with food additives. Not good! Does anyone have a good martini olive brand that they swear by?

@seawolf the latest iteration of the aged gin negronis is not for purists! Back to equal parts, but I substituted a lemon twist for the orange and it seems to cut through the woodiness of the gin better.
On the subject of garnishes, I have nothing to contribute from experience on olives (I prefer my martinis with a twist) but Jack Rudy’s vermouth brined olives might be worth a try - their bourbon cocktail cherries are not cheap but but they are really good.

I have not had that one. Here is the portion of my agave that is currently on display:
Check this crazy one out:
I have not tried the Luneta, Mal de Amor Tepeztate (which is actually a gift for a friend), or the La Medida.

@mclaincausey I await your review. I’ve never had a Pechuga,let alone a Mole Negro Pechuga.

Threw together a mixed drink 1oz rye 1oz simple syrup top with ginger ale ice optional. Also for the simple syrup I used this ginger ale mixer I got for the holidays but I think a regular simple syrup would work fine. Side note: this was the drink I made post going out to the bar so it might need some more doctoring to make it drinkable if you know what I mean.

A friend is doing some work for F1 in London and he found this place. Incredible agave selection. Anyone who loves agave and finds themselves in London should check it out.
