			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img align="left" alt="" height="140" hspace="10" src="http://vicepost.com/wp-content/uploads/snap.jpg" vspace="1" width="275" />I&#39;m really not sure how this would taste. They mention though, that it&#39;s good with bourbon, which might be pretty interesting. It&#39;s only available in PA, so you&#39;ll need to live there, or know someone who does, to get any. </p>
<p>Here&#39;s the details:</p>
<p>What would happen, we asked, if we took a traditional German &ldquo;Lebkuchen&rdquo; and distilled the ingredients into an organic spirit? What is a lebkuchen, you ask? A ginger snap!</p>
<p>	But not the mass-market, high-fructose junk at the supermarket. We&rsquo;re talking a real Pennsylvania Dutch (which actually means Pennsylvania German, not Dutch. Many years ago, someone apparently misheard &ldquo;deutsch&rdquo; for &ldquo;dutch&rdquo;) ginger snap made with hearty blackstrap molasses and fresh ginger. The kind our mothers, grandmothers, and great-great-great-grandmothers used to make.</p>
<p>	&ldquo;Lebkuchen&rdquo; was invented by German monks in the 12th century and first appeared in America in the late 1600s when German Anabaptists looking for religious freedom came to Pennsylvania to be part of William Penn&rsquo;s &ldquo;Holy Experiment.&rdquo; Although most people don&rsquo;t know it, the Pennsyslvania Dutch are a diverse and tolerant bunch, encompassing a mix of religions and the non-religious. What they all had in common was a strenuous work ethic and a robust culinary tradition. Because these early Germans were rustic farmers, they baked with hearty blackstrap molasses rather than refined sugar. Back then, this was considered backward and unsophisticated by the &ldquo;English,&rdquo; but today we know otherwise.</p>
<p>	Blackstrap molasses retains the natural goodness that gets stripped away by the refining process. It also provides a very distinct and earthy flavor. Of course, the Pennsylvania Dutch didn&rsquo;t distill a Lebkuchen spirit. That was our idea. But we think it is a delicious one. There are other alcoholic ginger products on the market, but they are either sickly sweet liqueuers or artificially flavored vodkas. This is a sophisticated organic spirit based on authentic folk history designed for people who know how to drink. It&rsquo;s the kind of genuine xperience we wish there was more of in the world. Try it and you will say &ldquo;nix besser,&rdquo; which is Pennsylvania Dutch for &ldquo;none better.&quot;</p>

Looking around the internet, it looks like a number of the watches in this line cost around $9,000, and go up from there. However, if you have the means, these are pretty nice. They come in a number of colors and varieties now, and all of them have the &quot;world time&quot; function that shows the time in all of the time zones on its dial, by matching it up with a city.</p>
<p>He&#39;s a little bit about the watch shown:</p>
<p>Technical specifications<br />
	Steel case<br />
	Diameter: 43.00 mm<br />
	Height: 13.40 mm<br />
	Case-back: sapphire crystal, secured by 6 screws<br />
	Water resistance: 50 metres<br />
	Girard-Perregaux GP033C0 self-winding mechanical movement<br />
	Calibre: 13&#39;&#39;&#39;<br />
	Frequency: 28,800 vibrations/hour (4 Hz)<br />
	Jewels: 63<br />
	Power reserve: minimum 46 hours<br />
	Functions: hours, minutes, small second, world time with day/night indicator, chronograph, date</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>You can check out all the watches at the Girard-Perregaux site, under the WW.TC Collection, <a href="http://www.girard-perregaux.com/collection/collection-en.aspx?type=1&amp;id=3" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</p>

Though I will admit, the more I drink it, the more I think Devotion is my favorite at the moment. Though a new vodka is always worth trying out. The bad news here is that it&#39;s only available in New York at the moment, but hopefully it catches on and gets into more places.</p>
<p>Here&#39;s the press release:</p>
<p>KANON ORGANIC VODKA, A SWEDISH SPIRIT, LAUNCHES IN NYC CELEBRATING THEIR EGALATARIAN LIFESTYLE</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>June 26th, 2010 (New York, NY) &ndash; With a strong history dating back to 1580, Kanon Organic<br />
	Vodka, an eco-friendly Swedish spirit, launches in NYC. The Gripsholm Distillery, has been<br />
	producing organic vodka for over 400 years and instills old world value and tradition for the brand, while staying true to their roots, Kanon Organic Vodka prides themselves on taste, sophistication and social awareness.</p>
<p>	Gripsholm Distillery is the only EU and US certified organic distillery in Sweden. Kanon Organic<br />
	Vodka is a clean and balanced spirit backed by a royal history; previously a cannon manufacturing<br />
	company in the late 16th century, Gripsholm started supplying vodka to the foundry workers and<br />
	people in the surrounding area. With its 29 pot-still pans, 280 workers and a production of over a million liters of vodka annually, Gripsholm was the largest distillery in Sweden.</p>
<p>	Kanon Organic Vodka is distilled from locally grown organic wheat in a continuous process without<br />
	the use of environmentally harmful or genetically modified additives. While many brands believe that redistilling creates better vodka, Kanon&rsquo;s unique organic process enables such purity that multiple distilling or charcoal filtering is not needed. The mix with fresh spring water delivers unique and distinctive finesse with natural flavor without the typical vodka burn; a trait found in no other vodka today. With an updated and modern packaging design, Kanon&rsquo;s exterior aesthetic will match the organic spirit&rsquo;s sleek and understated flavors. Likewise, Kanon is in keeping with an eco-friendly theme inside and out, as the glass bottle is made out of more than 60% recycled glass and the entire package is recyclable. Even the distillery is run on wind and waterpower and all by-products are renewed.</p>
<p>	&ldquo;The US vodka industry has failed to address that within the next five years, Gen Y will account<br />
	for a quarter of the population,&rdquo; says Stefanie Marco, US Director of Marketing and Mixology for<br />
	Gripsholm Distillery. &ldquo;They are the Internet Generation, whose ideals and expectations are more<br />
	honest and refined than their Gen X predecessors. Kanon is a super-premium-quality vodka by virtue of the product itself, rather than of driven-up price-points and false promises of access to a &ldquo;models-and-bottles&rsquo; lifestyle.&rdquo;</p>
<p>	Kanon Organic Vodka is currently available in New York at Morgan&rsquo;s Hotel Group and will be expanding distribution and launching in Los Angeles in January 2011.</p>
