    Comments Off on The After Festival Festival Festivities

    So the Cincinnati International Wine Festival came and went, and while it all tends to be a whirlwind when it comes to town, the event I have unfortunately always missed was the little shindig our friends at Cutting Edge Selections throws at the warehouse right after the CIWF Trade tasting.

    So let me explain just a little bit.  Cutting Edge Selections is a local wholesaler that’s been around as long as I can remember,

    Comments Off on Hellraising Hot Sauce – This Might Be Your New Go-To Hot Sauce!
    One of our favorite discoveries from last year’s Weekend of Fire X was an incredibly flavorful series of hot sauces from Minnesota’s Hellraising Hot Sauce.
