It's very good for sipping but using it for margs isn't good at all

Do they basically make it a brand then sell it?


Yes. Clooney sold for 700 million with a chance to make another 300.

Billy Gibbons Pura Vida tequila is probably the best that comes to mind.

Haven't had George Strait's yet

The 2 brands I've had are "Merkin" (I know stupid name)

A merkin is a pussy toupe historically used by diseased skanks back in the day when pubic hair loss and shaving the pubes often signaled trouble to potential customers. Wearing a merkin was a way to keep the revenue stream flowing by disguising the risk.

Makes me wonder if there’s a previously untapped group of wine drinkers that Keenan is targeting. How could Napa Valley have overlooked this demographic for so many years?

Mixing? It's great straight from the bottle.

There is a crab fly used in saltwater fly fishing called a "merkin". I guess I know why now.

Aviation was a good gin before Ryan Reynolds got involved and I like Casamigos.

Totally unintentional, but thanks for pointing that out. Got a good chuckle over here

Arrington Vineyard Wine is very good.

It's owned by Kix Brooks.

I didn't realize this was a celebrity branded whiskey.

This is solid and an easy drinker.

I’ve read where Maynard Keenan’s wines are very nice. Vineyard is in AZ and he grows Italian varieties.

Gavin Newsom owns part of Plumbjack. Scratch that wine off the list of wines to buy.

Supposedly the Clooney Tequila is outstanding but I haven’t had it.
I went to a tequila party with some high end tequila’s and the bartender told me that it was by far the best of the brands he could get.

The Rock's Teremana tequila is really good.



That's what i like to drink on the rocks with a lime wedge in it. and it's pretty cheap for a good tequila. I prefer it over Casamigos, although i like Casamigos too.

I drinked an entire 1/5th of Teremana on the rocks one night. Woke up the next morning feeling perfectly fine, and went work out and went about my day feeling like i didn't get hammered the night before, which is not something that is normal for a late 30's person to feel after a night of heavy drinking.

I had never heard of Indoggo gin before and just happened to see an ad for it yesterday.

Rollin' down the street, smokin' indo
Sippin' on gin and juice, laid back

The name is actually kind of brilliant. Might have to try it.
