So, here's a brief update. Since both Brad and myself lead busy lives, we've taken some time to work on our respective responsibilities. However, it came to a culmination when this past Sunday, we had our first filming session! We spent a good number of hours, there were some takes, some re-takes, and a couple more retakes.
And that's before the bottles got opened! Hehehe... It was something of a learning experience for both of us. But a good time was had! Brad also brought a friend of his, Ryan to act as a cameraman, so we had 2 cameras rolling. Got some good still photos. Then we got into the demos. *hic*. Just kidding. ;)
What did we try? We (meaning mostly me) tried a whiskey and a wine. I say 'we' because I did share (off-camera) some samples of what I was doing. Least I could do...
We broke the seal (quite literally) on a bottle of Maker's 46 Kentucky Bourbon. And then broke the seal and popped the cork on a bottle of Peller Estates 2007 Pinot Noir. And I just started salivating at the memory of it. Hehehehe.....Ok...I'll give you this little teaser. The Maker's 46? VERY tasty. Not at all your typical bourbon. VERY rich, flavourful, and obviously a different breakdown. It has rich vanilla and maple tones, a hint of spice lingers on the finish, but whatever they did with the barrels.... gives it a really unique twist. ;) Highly recommend trying it.
So where are we now? We'll be filming a couple more episodes, and then a pilot. Then Brad gets to do the post-production work. The editing etc. In the meantime, I shall be 'shmoozing' vendors and sponsors who may be interested in participating and/or backing this venture.
So, stay tuned. Follow me on Twitter, ask me to join our Facebook group, or just read-up here. Whichever you prefer. ;)
Enjoy what you like, but whatever you enjoy, please do so responsibly.
;) Slainte!
