Maestro Dobel Tequila: For Sippin'

Maestro Dobel Tequila: For Sippin’

Maestro Dobel is the real deal when it comes to tequila. I’d end the review at that, but I would have to fire myself. Maestro Dobel is a fairly new brand to the U.S., founded in 2008, so there aren’t a whole lot of war stories and interesting history tidbits about the label. However, the...
Bacardi Rum and the History of the Cuba Libre

Bacardi Rum and the History of the Cuba Libre

The rum and coke is a staple in bars and liquor cabinets across the world. Not only is it easy to make, it’s enjoyable for basically everyone. Similarly, the Cuba libre (which is really just a rum and coke with lime, on the rocks) is a fantastic drink that isn’t much harder than its sibling...
Boodles Gin: Drink Like Winston Churchill

Boodles Gin: Drink Like Winston Churchill

Boodles gin was a favorite of Winston Churchill, and I’m not surprised by that at all. Boodles has been around since 1845, and is largely the same as it was back then. The gin is extremely tasty, with hints of juniper, rosemary, nutmeg, sage, and coriander. It’s basically an herb party in this bottle, but don’t confuse...

5 Adventure Tips for Going Out of your Comfort Zone

Drink a Pumpkin, or Just a Jack-O Traveler Shandy

Drink a Pumpkin, or Just a Jack-O Traveler Shandy

It’s no surprise that we here at Electrogent love Halloween. It’s basically the best–costumes, nice weather, creepy stuff, and just all-round good times. Who doesn’t love halloween? It may only be mid-September, but we’re ready for this Halloween train to leave the station already. One fun way to get that engine chugging is to check out this...
Booker's Bourbon: A Link in the Beam Family Chain

Booker’s Bourbon: A Link in the Beam Family Chain

Booker’s Bourbon is another link in the chain of the Beam distillery’s small batch offerings. We recently looked at the 7-year Baker’s Bourbon, the grand-nephew of Jim Beam himself. Booker’s Bourbon is the choice of Jim Beam’s grandson, Booker Noe, who once was the master distiller for the entire Jim Beam outfit. This bourbon is...

The Alton Lane Dallas Launch Party

The Alton Lane Dallas Launch Party

If you don’t follow us on Twitter (it’s ok, I forgive you), you probably weren’t exposed to my summer-long complaints of studying for the Texas bar exam and lack of content creation as a result. You also are probably unaware that we went a month after that without access to the internet after we moved from...
Kinivo BTC450 Bluetooth Review

Kinivo BTC450 Bluetooth Review

Yes, I’m aware that the image is upside-down; actually, it’s right-side up…or that’s how it actually looks. The Kinivo BTC450 is my first real foray into the bluetooth-in-your-car world, because I live in Texas where we value freedoms to talk on the phone while we drive and read the newspaper in traffic. Get on our...
Findables iPhone Case: Because What Else Does a QR Code Do?

Findables iPhone Case: Because What Else Does a QR Code Do?

The people from the Findables iPhone case sent this strange case over, and I knew nothing about it going into the review. The first thing I noticed was its neon green color. After my retinas healed, it was probably the most obnoxious color for a phone case out there. As someone who will choose leather over...
Slickwraps: Stickers all Grown Up

Slickwraps: Stickers all Grown Up

If you’re like me, you probably use your phone–a lot. While I try to not let it get excessive or intrusive, I certainly get a lot of use out of my phone, particularly as a blogger. Therefore, I’m always on the lookout for interesting or manly-inspired phone cases. Enter Slickwraps, an intriguing way to turn...

This is a guest post by Jonathan Gouveia, the founder of Groomsday, a retailer of groomsmen gifts. He also regularly writes articles focused around weddings from a guy’s perspective. Maturity is all about change–about exploring new things and making adjustments. If you’re still dressing the same way you did when you were in school –...
