Lance Armstrong Drops The Price On His Texas Home

Filed under: Estates, Celebrity Shopping

Lance Armstrong recently twittered the birth of his fourth child which perhaps has made him more motivated to sell his expansive retreat near Dripping Springs, Texas. The 447-acre property was our estate of the day back in January. The ranch includes ownership in Deadman's Hole, a beautiful swimming hole that has a giant waterfall. The ranch includes a four-bedroom main house built in 2003 as well as a one bedroom guest house. The main house has great views of the surrounding countryside. There is also a pool and a spa and the acreage includes seven miles of bike trails. This home was listed at $12 million but is now for sale for $10.5 million.

Dripping Springs Texas Vodka

Filed under: Spirits

Dripping Springs Texas Vodka doesn't have the sexiest name I've ever heard and the bottle design is very basic but it's what is inside that counts. The brand won the Purity Vodka Trophy at the International Wine & Spirit Competition last year beating out entries from around the world. The vodka made by the small San Luis Spirits is distilled 20 times and the tiny brand has struggled to succeed, including having to reestablish production after an explosion in the factory last November. The brand is made from sweet Midwest corn in small, hand crafted batches in a proprietary copper still and mixed with artesian spring water. It sells for around $21.
