where's the right thread for this question?
what is the kosher status of Patron XO Cafe
Star-K seems to approve, cRc has a problem with something, not sure if it's the same item or not...
any definitive status?

I'll see if I can find out more.

anyone try Or Hganuz Namura Merlot (2009) and able to tell me what they thought about it. Wine store recommended it to me. They only have on bottle left because they dont make that variety anymore and compared to what others are charging for their remainin bottles of it, it looks like a good deal.

Try asking in the wine thread, this one is for hard liquor.

Don't drink the bourbon,  per CRC it's owned by a Jew who doesn't sell chametz.  They have a "kosher" batch coming out in 2018
