What Time Is It?

Why it's Gin time of course!  And what the hell, let's have it be Absinthe time too.

Good friend Tony, did the labels for these two.  Some point I should devote a post just to him, his talents and how much trouble we try to get into.
But for now it's Gin time and that label Tony designed for it.  Damn good gin, made on Treasure Island in the middle of San Francisco Bay.  Tony, John and I went out the other night for some music and before the show had some drinks and there on the shelves of Absinthe (the bar in SF) was Bummer.  Naturally had a Negroni made with it.  So good.

Check out the gorgeous illustrations  by Tony's friend Mike.

Now that I have a couple cases of it and as well as the Absinthe (the liquor) I'm set for awhile.
Up next will be a day shooting the bottles for beauty shots.



Bummer and Lazarus were two dogs in San Francisco back in the 1800's that became famous for their rat killing propensities.  They have their own wiki entry.

And the Emperor Norton Absinthe.  Again, a character from early SF.
