Drink Up Gentlemen
When it’s time to crack a drink you can pour some WhistlePig PiggyBack Rye Aged 6 Years. Whistle Pig in Vermont makes some of the finest Rye Whiskey on the planet and at $49.99 this is one of their most approachable expressions. While it says ‘aged 6 years’ that is referring to the bare minimum of the blend which consists of whiskeys aged between 6 to 8 years with an average age of 7.25 years. On the nose, you’ll find vanilla bean, white pepper, and clove. The smooth finish of caramel will make you into a believer.

Dog Essentials From Chewy
Chewy's
I have a 9-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog who is as healthy as can be. This breed has a reputation for their short lifespan compared to other dogs and I have no proof that anything I’ve fed my dog over the years or the ways I’ve raised my dog has led to the long and happy life but I thought I’d throw two staples of my dog’s life on your radar here. The first item is Greenies Teenie Dental Dog Treats. The size of these treats varies depending on the size of your dog but if you have a dog then I cannot recommend these enough. They’re great for your dog’s teeth.
The other item here is Earthborn Holistic Great Plains Feast Grain-Free Natural Dry Dog Food which I’ve been feeding my dog for the past year or so. I like to switch up the food about every two years. Everyone has their own preference with this but I see big spikes fo energy and positive mood changes when I mix things up. This food is a blend of Bison protein, egg protein, and nutrient-rich veggies such as peas, apples, blueberries, carrots, spinach and cranberries. If you’re looking to mix it up with a new dog food I can say this one has been fantastic for my dog. You can also set up auto-ship by following that ‘shop now’ link below to ensure you never run out.

Snake River Farms Has World-Class American Wagyu
Snake River Farms
Meat has been flying off the shelves nationwide since news broke a few weeks back that the United States could be facing a meat shortage due to inefficiencies in the supply chain. It’s almost as if people hear there’s a possible shortage, buy more meat than they should, and then new people come into the store to see nearly empty shelves and panic buy the rest. The process continues to repeat.
This has led to an explosion of direct-to-consumer online purchases. I’ve been ordering a ton of meat online straight from butchers and that journey’s led me to Snake River Farms which has some absolutely phenomenal American Wagyu offerings. Right now you can order their American Wagyu Brisket (12-14 pounds), American Wagyu Grilling Pack (Filets, Sirloins, Hot Dogs, and Ground Beef), as well as their First Class Filets Pack.

The Carter Knife
The James Brand
Every aspect of The Carter pocket knife has been carefully considered and crafted to deliver you a perfect pocket knife for daily use, one that will last you a lifetime if you treat it well, and one that is lightweight and discreet enough to easily carry in your pocket without taking up too much space. This Grey/Stainless colorway is a favorite of everyday carry enthusiasts all over I’m 100% on board with it.
One of the details that make this tool so special is the VG-10 stainless steel blade. That steel offers some of the best edge-retention and corrosion resistance on the market. This means you can use this knife regularly, in any conditions, and it won’t fall apart on you like some other cheaper knives out there.

It is officially Short Sleeve Button Down season, or SSBD SZN if you’d prefer. We’re nearly through Spring and plowing on into Summer.

The Corridor NYC Photo Negative Hawaiian SS has a single chest pocket, is made from comfortably cool cotton, and the dark colors will go great with jeans or shorts.

Performance Buttondowns So You Don’t Sweat Through Your Shirt
Mizzen and Main
Summer’s on the horizon. We WILL be spending time around each other again. This is happening all over and life will slowly lurch back to being able to regain some semblance of normality. For anyone back in the office or planning on going out to dinner anytime in the future, these Mizzen and Main buttondowns are perfect.
I’m hoping you know Mizzen and Main by now but if you don’t, they really are the best around. They’re lightweight on the body and a super soft blend of polyester + spandex that wicks the sweat away. These shirts are machine washable which already makes them superior to other dress shirts out there, they don’t wrinkle, and you can choose the size, fit, and length to suit your specific body and needs.

YETI Roadie 24 Hard Cooler
YETI
I’m consistently blown away by how season after season, YETI Coolers improves their best-in-class coolers. The all-new YETI Roadie 24 Hard Cooler fits a niche that is very much needed in my daily life. It’s the perfect cooler for tossing in the truck/car and on the boat where it can double as a seat. It is also the perfect height for using as a seat while tailgating, camping, or drinking in the driveway with the neighbors like I’ve been doing for the past few weeks.
The new YETI Roadie 24 Hard Cooler is now 10% lighter, holds 20% more ice/beer/drinks, and has 30% better thermal retention than its predecessor. This also comes in a great sweet spot in terms of price ($199 on YETI’s website) and comes in Navy, White, Desert Tan, and a clean looking Charcoal. Dare I say this is the only thing dad wants for Father’s Day this year? It can sit next to him in the passenger’s seat of the car (or backseat), on the floor of the golf cart, or anywhere else dad wants to crush ice-cold beers while keeping a sandwich cold. Dads love YETIs and you can scoop this one by following that ‘shop now’ button below.
