Award-Winning, Black-Owned GO3 Vodka Celebrates History, Friendship, and Rich, Small Batch Flavor in Houston

HOUSTON – September 30, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Jubilee Spirits, a new Black-owned, Houston-based premium alcohol and spirit company, has brought a rare treat for vodka drinkers to market with General Orders No.3 (GO3) Vodka; Texas’ first craft distilled sweet potato vodka, blended and bottled in Houston.

GO3 Vodka was recently awarded the Silver Medal at the 2022 New York World Wine & Spirits Competition. The new handcrafted vodka offers a rich, full-bodied flavor, with refreshing buttery notes and a mild hint of sweet caramel that combine to form a super smooth, luxury vodka experience.  The ultra-premium 80 Proof vodka, small batch distilled in the heart of Houston’s 5th Ward, is a sweet potato vodka blended with russet potatoes and Texas sweet corn. 

“The sweet potatoes bring a richer body and a slightly earthy, delicate sweetness to the flavor that really sets it apart from other grain and potato vodkas on the market,” said Jubilee Spirits Co-founder Ron Lockett II. “The flavor and velvety texture of GO3 gives it a versatility that makes it perfect for sipping neat, on the rocks, and in martinis, as well as an excellent go-to for both sweet and savory cocktails.”  

The Vodka’s brand name, General Orders No.3, and its distinctive bottle, pay homage to the historical moment on June 19, 1865, when emancipation was finally realized for enslaved African Americans in the state of Texas. 

The award-winning small batch vodka was founded by a small group of African American entrepreneurs with diverse backgrounds and careers, brought together through college, friendship, and family, to create a product with purpose in an industry with very few Black-owned brands. The collective group, who are graduates of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) including Texas Southern University, Prairie View A&M, and Wiley College, along with graduates of The University of Texas at Austin, University of Houston, and Cornell, wanted to create a high-end, ultra-premium vodka that celebrated freedom, heritage, and culture, while simultaneously giving back to the institutional foundations that have contributed to their successes. With that mission top of mind with every batch produced, Jubilee Spirits donates 8.65 percent of all GO3 Vodka net proceeds back to historically Black colleges and universities.

GO3 Vodka, Jubilee Spirits’ first ultra-premium product, made its debut on Juneteenth 2022 and is currently available at over 100 liquor retail stores and in bar and restaurant locations throughout Texas, with plans for nationwide distribution in the coming months.

Premium Cutting Machine Manufacturer Releases New Additional Line of Precision Industrial Machines

CLEVELAND – September 30, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Over the past 50 years, Cutting Systems has been providing the Metal Industry with high-performance Plasma and Oxy-Fuel cutting machines for their metal severance needs.

“Our Predator Series of robust bridge & rail machines are in service at facilities widely, varying from the world’s largest steel companies, steel service centers, to small family-owned businesses. We have recognized the need to provide our clients with the option to use a cutting platform with a reduced size footprint that also affords a reduced price point. That’s why the new Shark line of ‘Unitized’ machines was developed,” said Frank Boulton, Vice President of Sales at Cutting Systems.

The talented engineers at Cutting Systems have designed the Shark HD for high-definition cutting and the Shark Air for conventional plasma cutting. Both platforms are strong enough to hold up to 4″-thick plates and are available in 4′ X 4′, 4′ X 8′, 5’X 10′, and 6′ X 12′ sizes. This versatility offers customers a full spectrum of price selection from entry-level light industrial through to a heavy-duty high-precision cutting machine value.

Cutting Systems recognizes that the plasma process is effective on only up to 2″-thick mild carbon steel so they’ve provided an option on the Shark line to add an Oxy-Fuel station to process up to 4″-thick mild carbon steel.

Not everyone knows that explosive hydrogen is produced when severing aluminum with plasma nor that a carcinogen called hexavalent chromium is produced when severing stainless steel with plasma. In these cases, Cutting Systems’ new Shark machines are available in a safe down draft table configuration. This system uses a dust collector to scrub the air, keeping people and the environment safe and clean. Mild carbon steel is safely cut on a Shark using a water table design to control smoke and dross/slag.

The new line of Shark cutting machines embellishes an already comprehensive product offering by Cutting Systems. For all media or sales inquiries, please contact the Cutting Systems team directly at (216) 928-0500.

STAFFORD, Texas – September 30, 2022 …

Such vicissitudes might have deprived his life of imperial glory, but the relics unearthed from his tomb tell a different story, revealing a dynasty’s grandeur.

NANCHANG, China – September 30, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Dethroned after 27 days, the shortest reign among Western Han emperors, Liu He (92-59 B.C.), master of the Haihunhou Tomb, was banished as a commoner, and later allowed to reside near a lake and given the title of the Marquis of Haihun. He died in his early 30s, reports People’s Daily Online. Its reporting team visited the site and interviewed a leading researcher.

Such vicissitudes might have deprived his life of imperial glory, but the relics unearthed from his tomb tell a different story, revealing a dynasty’s grandeur.

The tomb near Nanchang, capital of east China’s Jiangxi Province, turns out to be the best-preserved Western Han Dynasty (206 BC – 24 AD) cemetery ever found, with the most integrate structure, distinct layout and complete sacrificial system.

One of China’s top ten archaeological discoveries in 2015, the tomb has yielded the largest number of relics boasting of  the most variety and the finest craftsmanship in Jiangxi.

Among a raft of  relics including gold, bronze, and jade artifacts, archaeologists discovered a broken lacquer “screen” in the main chamber of the tomb and restored two portraits, one of which is believed to be the earliest portrait of Confucius ever found in China.

Also unearthed were more than 5,000 pieces of bamboo slips of Confucian classics, indicating the prevalence of Confucius’ teachings among the royal more than 2,000 years ago.

The Qi version of The Analects of Confucius, which had been lost for about 1,800 years, was found in the unearthed bamboo slips which have been subject to infrared scanning and are ready for further study.

It is also the only tomb with a chariot burial site in the south of the Yangtze River. Five well-preserved horse-drawn vehicles, each with four sacrificed horses, were found, indicating that the owner was among the highest echelons of the Han Dynasty.

Liu, the marquis, was the  grandson of Emperor Wu, whose reign ushered in  a  prosperous period  of the Han Dynasty that is believed on a par with the reign of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty. 

“To know Emperor Qin and his dynasty through archaeological artifacts, one can turn to Terra-cotta Warriors. Nevertheless, before the Haihunhou tomb, there were not many artifacts for an in-depth study of Emperor Wu,” said Yang Jun, a researcher at the Jiangxi Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology and the leading archaeologist. 

In Yang’s view, the Haihunhou tomb shed light on the mightiness of the Han Dynasty as all treasures bearing the mark of the marquis had been buried with him.

The 4 million unearthed Wuzhu bronze coins attested to the dynasty’s opulence. This finding  is the first hard evidence of the Chinese using a string of 1,000 coins as a monetary unit, pushing the original date back 600 years.
