It also explores the origins of clear spirits and the different varieties of each. You'll compare American and European vodkas, see how to make the new and improved all-purpose Martini, and follow the spread of flavored rums across the globe.

Tender and great taste
Size: 9 Ounce (Pack of 2)
I love this so much. I’m subscribing to it. They are so tender and really a good snack snacks to eat. I don’t think I’ve had a jerky anything like this before. It makes everything else not taste good

Good Flavor, Inconsistent Dehydration
Size: 9 Ounce (Pack of 2)
Discovered this jerky after looking for a cheaper alternative to beef. First and second batch were great. Third and fourth batches have been really wet and sticky, almost like they weren't dehydrated properly.

Oishi !
Size: 9 Ounce (Pack of 2)
This Korean bulgogi flavor is similar to Japanese teriyaki sharing an ideal balance between salty tangy soy sauce and sweet sugar perhaps bulgogi more garlic prominent and teriyaki more ginger. Nice to have a difference and enjoy both versions of barbeque flavors. Koreans can enhance the flavor with sesame oil and Japanese with miso. The pork used by Golden Island is top quality lean and tender vs. the sometimes inconsistent quality of USA mass market beef jerky.

Must have for any occasion!
Size: 9 Ounce (Pack of 2)
This jerky is hands down the best flavor and tenderness I’ve ever had from a bag of jerky. Honestly do yourself a favor and don’t open the bag unless you’re committed to eating the whole bag in one sitting.

Tasty treat in single serve packs! My new favorite snack
Set name: Baby Blues BBQ, 2 Ounce Pack of 8
A friend recommended the Righteous Felon Beef Jerky, so I decided to give it a try. The Baby Blues BBQ is the perfect balance of BBQ with a hit of hot. It's not overwhelming and doesn't make you run for a glass of water, but just enough to add flavor. The texture of the beef is the right balance between tender, jerky and not dried out or tough. Just right. I am glad that each packet is a single serving because it's easy to enjoy a small bag by one's self. Packaging is cute. I wikk be trying a number of the other flavors as soon as I finish these, which will be quite soon at the rate I'm going. Haha It's a nice treat.
