BLENDING WEED & WINE & BEER & LIQUOR TOO!
by J. Nayer Hardin www.hempnayer.blogspot.com
‘
Alcohol & THC, oh my, oh me.’ At one of Chef Ashbell’s grand dinner parties in New York during the last century, Sommelier Society of America’s Chef Darrin responded to my question ‘I’ve used hemp and prayer, what about alcohol and prayer?’ He flashed one of his huge smiles and said ‘Why do you think they call it spirits?'
The connection between marijuana and alcohol is legendary. Many home enthusiasts are putting their best buds in alcohol, soaking them for 10 days or more, and enjoying the enhanced nectar. Hemp beer is a much sought after drink and the illusive hemp liquor is just beyond the reach of the US market, for now. The relatively new title of budtender is perfect for folks seeking to rise to the best of industry standards. The marijuana clubs are a $1.7 billion dollar industry, second only in sales to Viagra, even with the limited number of states where it's legal. Marijuana colleges are budding up all over as described in the New York Times, Time Magazine and demonstrated by colleges like Oaksterdam University .
In an effort to stave off the projected food shortage, folks are working to raise awareness of hemp foods and beverages, i.e. Time4Hemp , Hippie Butter , VoteHemp and others. Hemp alcohol and other recreational uses are part of that discussion.
Of course this mission can encourage budtenders. Below are some questions, only a starter list, for consideration as we explore setting standards for hemp consumption / budtenders equal to that available to patrons of/& bar tenders and wine stewards.
1. What is the best way to certify budtenders, i.e. the type that are currently serving at medical marijuana clubs & as care givers?
2. What wines and beers go best with hemp foods –i.e. a hemp pasta dish under a bold red sauce? Medical marijuana chocolate brownies go with which alcoholic beverage?
3. What buds (see variety in clubs) stimulate the taste buds best, oral and elsewhere?
4. What's the best wine and weed combos (or not combined) for parties, dining out, chillin’?
5. What about hemp in vodka and hemp beer , i.e. black hemp ale ?
6. What is a tincture and how is it made?
7. How do we empower new and existing companies to capitalize on this market?
These and other questions could expand the word Sommelier in this new century to include wine and bud stewards, specialists in the spirits found in the plants. We have been the victims of the politics of scarcity for too long. Now is the time to break those chains and hemp is a great place to begin.
Consider supporting a simple executive order ending the drug war as we prepare for the return of sanity to government, so we can all live the happiest lives possible. It’s good to start this process with the food supply. Of course, hemp biomass can be burned to clean / distill water and hemp plastics can be made into gadgets.
World’s food shortage solved by filling the void with hemp food making unwanted hunger an ancient concept.
Hemp farming is off the law books as a crime. Willie Nelson’s Farm Aid has an active role in running the Hemp For Victory Program. Unused government land is leased to verified family farmers and small businesses.
With the hemp plant free, we will be prospering. Wise ways are used to use the profits to help the people.
Use the victories of the hemp legalization movement to address what else is in the way of the Will of The People’s empowerment, i.e. toxic energy, lack of adequate housing, environment, etc. because hemp can help in these fields too.
All cuisines can be adapted for hemp food additions. Hemp food cooking stars are built based on their recipes and flair.
Hemp food cooking contests, coupons, incorporation into educational facilities, military, institutional and other marketing/sales applications are thriving.
Nature is restored with her full compliment of plants to make things run better.
Are you finished with the politics of scarcity?
Are you willing to change? Are you ready for a better world?
We do not have to follow our leaders down this path of doom and gloom.
If you are finished too, this is a call to action.
When the problem is toxic medicine the solution is effective, non-toxic medicine.
When the problem is violence, the solution is the peace pipe.
When the problem is a failed economy, the solution is 50,000 new products.
When the problem is a lack of food, the solution is……………
End hemp prohibition like Gandhi making salt
Hemp grows quickly, is wind rather than bee pollinated
and a great foundation food for many cuisines.
and a great foundation food for many cuisines.
So let’s stop pretending not to know we can save ourselves.
Live the joy of abundance with hemp.
We are limited only by our imaginations, which are vast, to save ourselves,.
