Starbucks whiskey-flavored coffee

Starbucks’ whiskey-flavored drink is now available in New York — but the only buzz you’ll get will be from the caffeine.
The Starbucks Whiskey Barrel-Aged Straight Up is paired with a glass of sparkling water.
It’s not exacly an Irish coffee, so don’t get too excited. There’s no booze in this java. Instead, the chain’s Whiskey Barrel-Aged Cold Brew is made by steeping green, unroasted Sulawesi coffee beans from Indonesia in empty oak barrels that once held aged whiskey, so the beans soak up the flavor.
Barrel Aged Cold Brew made with Starbucks Whiskey Barrel-Aged Sulawesi is sold with a block of ice only at the Starbucks Roastery location in Seattle.
The batch is then roasted a few weeks later, which kills off any alcohol, but keeps the “distinctive whiskey notes,” Starbucks said in a statement.
Coffee enthusiasts will be able to indulge in the drink “straight up” or with whiskey barrel-aged vanilla syrup. The cold drink is shaken with ice, strained and served chilled alongside a glass of sparkling water at only select Starbucks Reserve coffee bars for a limited time; and at the Roastery in Seattle starting Sept. 12.
Starbucks Reserve bars are high-end coffee bars and the Roastery is a large Starbucks location in the company’s hometown where patrons can see how coffee is roasted, made and brewed. There are several Reserve stores in New York City, but only the locations at 10 Waverly Place in Greenwich Village and at 85th and Madison on the Upper East Side will be selling the whiskey-infused drink.
Starbucks first tested the whiskey-infused drink at the Seattle Roastery back in March, where it sold out “in a flash.”
Also new at Starbucks is a Nitro Freddo, a Greek drink made with Starbucks Nitro Cold Brew infused with dark caramel and topped with dark caramel infused foam. It will be sold at more than 1,000 locations

CAUSES OF DISINTEGRATION OF CONCRETE The primary reasons that cause disintegration of concrete member are desribed below. DISINTEGRATION OF CONCRETE 1.  SULPHATE ATTACK Soluble sulphates are present in Ground water Soil Clay bricks Soluble sulphates react with Tricalcium Aluminate of cement I n the presence of moisture and form products which occupy much bigger volume than that of original constituents and so expansive reaction results causing disintegration and weakening of concrete, masonry, plaster and formation of cracks. The reaction is very slow and cracks start coming to notice after 2 to 3 years. These reactions to take place, the presence of following three things are necessary Soluble Sulphate Tricalcium Aluminate Moisture As per this, the following components of building are more liable to be affected by sulphate attack. Concrete and masonry in foundation, especially where water table is quite high and concrete and masonry remain in contact with wat

While on site, a site engineer must ensure that the brickwork is going on as per quality requirements. Some of the general requirements of quality of brickwork are mentioned below. Use this as a checklist while executing brickwork. The thickness of joint in brick masonry should not exceed 1 cm. The face joints should be raked to a depth of 15 mm by raking tool when the mortar is still green so as to provide proper key for plaster or pointing. Brickwork should be taken up in layers not exceeding one meter height at a time. Check that the brick work is in plumb. Check that the brick courses are in level. Check the quality of bricks with specific reference to Strength Efflorescence Dimensional accuracy Water absorption Check that no brick bats are used as queen closer. Check strength of mortar by scratching with sharp instrument like screw driver. Check quality of sand in mortar. (Test for fineness modulus and silt content). Check mixing of mortar whether do
