Havana Flute Easy Sheet Music Havana flute easy sheet music Continue Follow the latest daily buzz with buzzFeed Daily Newsletter! This little craft my friend thought to me and I hope you enjoy the simplicity of this project.First you want a quark from a bottle or anything close to thatNext to get hollow sticks like hollow dynamite. Cut off 1/8 of the quark. Engrave the rod with a smily face sign. (shown in the picture.) Put your hand on the bottom and blowParticipated in UP! Competition This wooden flute is awesome for decorating and great for practicing your whittling skills! Parts: Stick (Douglas Fir looks better)Tools: Whittling Knife (I used a rough knife $20, Amazon)Get your whittling knife and start whittling the crust off the stick (if you only make the first layer it gives it a cool effect). Then start whittling the flute holes, as I mentioned in the mini guitar (see below). To do this, you need to cut through the line in a stick, cut into it, cut into a line, cut up to it, etc. Whittle flute holes about 1/4-1/2 width of the stick. You can also add an extra for the thumb between the first and second holes. To make a mouthpiece, just cut at a 45 degree angle until you have as deep as you want. Cheers! Now you've reviewed some simple whittling skills that should get you ready for my other instructable, mini guitar! Mojito isn't even the best drink in Cuba, says Javier Gilbert, a tour guide who takes me on a tour of the city. He's about to tell me that this Cuba Libre is a lot I'm sure of. I know he won't say it's Daiquiri. You know what is, he continues: Kubat! I haven't heard of the drink before. It's just Cuba Libre made with dark rum instead of white, but it happens a lot in Havana. There is always something to learn, a combination of classical traditions and new ideas, old concepts, and sometimes modern developments. La Bodegita del Medio. Jake Emen The more people I speak in Havana, the more I hear the same refrain: Changes are coming, but not fast enough. Tourism is welcome and necessary. Come to Havana. Meet the people. Have a rum. And I did. With only about 12 seats in the bar, La Bodeguita del Medio is a tiny tourist-stuck space where you can still find a group crammed into a corner and a few dozen extra people standing and spreading the streets. Bodegita is the historic home of Mojito, and this fun place is replete with memorabilia by Ernest Hemingway and otherwise what you are looking for. But if you don't snag a place at the bar, this is probably one drink and done. Mojito in La Bodegita. You came to try the Mojito, and at $5 CUC ($1 USD and $1 CUC, but when you exchange your U.S. dollars in cash, you keep about $87 out of every $100), it's strong and well done, impressively efficient and accurate despite the endless demands of the hiding crowd. If La Bodegita Havana Havana Mojito, then El Floridita is also for Daiquiri. This is the kind of bar where Hemingway's stories come easily among whirring blenders. Huge compared to La Bodeguita, El Floridita is also a little more well-groomed, with air conditioning and a small (but not annoying) Disney vibe. Holy with a statue of Hemingway - you know what you want. El Floridita. Jake Emen Daiquiris watches in $6 CUC pop. It's a bit expensive for the island, but they are strong and quite tasty. As an extra note, be prepared to tip musical acts at both La Bodeguita and El Floridita and most other bars, for that matter. Another old guard should see this hotel Nacional de Cuba. Enter through its large lobby and head straight to the street through the back, where you will find several bars along with the back patio and lawn. Here you want to be at sunset as the hotel's sublime positioning overlooks the sea (the place used to be a fortress). But the best way to experience Hotel Nacional may be by the pool, which in 1930 was the deepest in Cuba and where rum drinks have flowed freely so far. Nacional de Cuba Pool. Jake Emen Non-guests can rent a towel and chair for $27 CUC. This may sound like a lot until you find out that it comes with a $20 CUC food and beverage loan that you can flip in your choice of three poolside Daiquiris or Mojito and still have enough left on a bottle of water and a tip. Rounding out the city's famous old bars, Dos Hermanos, now next to the cruise ship's docks, boasts an ode to Hemingway on its walls to go along with its pink-hued frozen Hemingway Daiquiris and frothy Pinja Coladas, topped with cinnamon. Sloppy Joe ™. Jake Emen Sloppy Joe first opened in 1917, but reopened in 2013. It harkens to its origins with walls loaded with vintage photos and mementos. You'll find one of Havana's big lists of both rum and cocktails here, so this is a good place to consider branching out and try something different. The face of Havana's new look may simply be Febrica de Arte Cubano (FAC), a sprawling, tiered space complete with an art gallery, nightclub, restaurant and more than half a dozen bars and nooks from which to drink rum in all its forms. Just when you think you've explored it all, you'll find a hidden staircase or a small side door that takes you to a whole new area with a different type of music. Medium Mojito or shaken Hemingway Daiquiri are the way to go. Admission is $2 CUC and you get a card to count the food and beverages you consume and then pay when you leave. Fe Brika de Arte Cubano. Jake Emen La Guarida gets tagged as one of the best paladares (family restaurants) in the city, but this modern rooftop bar is the place to see and see in Havana. After sun, it's all neon lights, house music and craft cocktails. Rum Old-fashioned, made Havana Club seven-year-old rum, goes hand in hand with one of the favorite cigars. Another fashion trendsetter, the O'Reilly 304 is a small, unmarked paladar and bar with friendly service, welcoming the decor and soundtrack of pop hits from around the world. Although it's touted as a gin bar and restaurant, there's plenty to keep you busy in the rum area as well. Cuba's Libres come served in pint-sized Mason jars, while Daiquiris come in a massive cup adorned with flowing, meandering side dishes. La Guarida. You don't come to Havana or drink Havana Club rum. If you're so inclined, there's even the Havana Club Rum Museum, although it's more of a showcase than anything else. Havana Club a'ejo three year old is what you will find used in most cocktails unless otherwise stated. But there are Aniejo Blanco, Aniejo Spanish, Aniejo Reserve, Agnejo 7, Aniejo 15, Ritual Kubano, Selecion de Maestros, and various other labels. When you are tired of cocktails and want a neat sip, consider Seleccion de Maestro as a reasonably priced choice. Chances to find between $5 and $8 CUC, this triple barrel age, finished in white oak, and displays more natural sweetness and sophistication than the things they're pouring into a mojito. Havana Rum Club on the Rocks in Dos Hermanos. Jake Emen Most of the bars along the tourist trail serve only the Havana Club, whether in one or a dozen varieties. But there are other Cuban rums to be found. Santiago de Cuba lines, for example, are also widely available: an 11-year-old's a'ejo is a popular expression, although sometimes hard to find, and a'ejo 12-year-old is a pleasant sipper that offers notes of nut caramel, brittle peanuts and molasses. Cuba Libre on O'™Reili 304. Jake Emen The more time you have, the more brands you will be able to track down. But keep in mind, some of the alternative names may, in fact, be made by the Havana Club. Mojito and Daiquiri get a major play in Havana, obviously, but they're not the only rum cocktails in town. There is, of course, Cuba Libre and the aforementioned Kubat, but also a look at Cubanito, a rum riff on Bloody Mary, with rum, tomatoes and lemon juice, hot sauce, salt and an assortment of side dishes. After using the flute and before storing it, you should always remember to clean or dry it. This is because when you blow into the flute, moisture is formed inside, which can cause the pads to deteriorate. Here are some tips on how to properly clean the flute. Use a clean cloth (flannel fabric or J fabric well until it is too long or too short) to clean the inside of the flute. Fold the fabric along in half and thread the edges of the fabric through the slot onto the cleaning rod. The fabric should be tightly wrapped on the edge of the rod so that you will be able to clean the inside of the flute better. Wrap the rest of the fabric tightly The rod and securely hold the end of the fabric and rod on your side to avoid clots and get stuck while cleaning the inside of the flute.
