Personally, I've never heard of "Savory", but it exists and just published their list of the eight "best booze blogs to read this year". It's certainly their opinion and they do express it thusly...
(Credit: http://www.thesavory.com/drink/8-best-b ... -year.html)"For us, the marks of a great alcohol blog are fairly simple: high quality, humorous prose, and a great network of supplies. If you can write well about the best stuff, then you have something truly valuable and engaging. We don't want to read average old Dougie Rando's rudderless Yelp-esque review of some dog-shit cocktail at some dog-shit bar. We want Wilde on Pappy, Twain on Zinfandel, and Murikami on Pilsner.
The Internet has given everyone a voice and until the Lords of the Cloud start imposing an emissions tax on posting, we'll have to endure a torrent of "content" gushing out of our browsers and drowning us in unedited, first-person piddle. Sadly, there is no application or screening process for starting a blog either, which makes it difficult to discern who really knows the score on booze.
But as usual, The Savory has done the work for you and put together a round-up of some of the best booze blogs to follow in 2014!"
Check it out: whatever happened to Ralfy, the Malt Maniacs, Davin de Kergommeaux, Chuck Cowdery, Janis Robinson, Serge or the like? How bout Bear, the Count, and even - gulp - The Project? Are we all chopped liver? Apparently Savory thinks so and if I daresay...
One of their recommendations tells their whole sordid story. Methinks the "Savory" blog is one of the blogs of which they complain. As a better alternative, I have no doubt you can do much better. I've already named eight of what many think are the best, including mois. So what do you think are the eight best booze blogs on the net?
(Those who name The Project will be keelhauled: we don't count)
