Falernum A rather hard to find ingredient that is used in some Caribbean cocktails, most notably in the Bermuda Rum Swizzle. It is essentially a sweet syrup that is flavored with lime juice, ginger, and other spices. While Grenadine is often used as a substitute, I feel that it really isn't quite the same. For a long time, Falernum had been made by Sazerac Co., but due to apparent lack of sales, they stopped producing it several years ago. To help fill in the gap, Da Vinci Gourmet (a flavored syrup company) started producing a non-alcoholic version that could be used in cocktails that required Falernum. Fee Brothers is also now producing a non-alcoholic Falernum syrup as well, flavor-wise it provides a very similar profile to the DaVinci Gourmet version. Just recently, a brand of Falernum from Barbados is being distributed through "Spirit of Hartford", and comes highly recommended by Dale DeGroff.

Where was wine invented?
The Mesopotamians have long been considered the first to make wine. However, the unearthing of an ancient winery in Armenia would seem to challenge that assumption. The winery in Armenia was dated to approximately 6,000 years ago and is the oldest location found where wine appears to have been mass produced. (see related link)
