As an imbiber based in Los Angeles, I’ve made peace with the fact that a night of barhopping involves some forethought. Living in an urban sprawl with limited public transportation, many would-be revelers have to focus on a neighborhood with a good concentration of bars, since rideshares around the city can get pricey. So I was ecstatic when I found that in Hong Kong, some of the best bars in Asia, and even the world, are within steps—or an escalator ride—of one another.

La Maison & Velier’s Transcontinental Rum Line (aka TCRL ) is back with new editions, and unlike the 2023 bottlings, these are not single cask releases. (Many of these releases are presented at a much lower proof, too — and they’re priced more affordably as a result.) While not single cask releases, they are still vintage dated and, as such, limited in nature.

When I asked the owner of a local wine shop about Rueda , I got a quizzical look. I wasn’t completely surprised that he was unfamiliar with wines from Rueda, given that it’s a relatively small subregion of Castilla y León in northwest Spain a couple of hours from Madrid. Rueda is often overshadowed by its neighbor, Ribera del Duero , and even more so by Rioja.
