Kinda going with the craft beer thread we had for a while. Is there anyone that has a finer appreciation for spirits? I've never been much of a drinker and don't see the fascination with getting wasted. I somehow got looking up reviews and videos for spirit tastings recently and have found it pretty interesting. i also really find the designs of the decanters and bottles to be fascinating.

 

Anybody appreciate liquor as anything other than a vessel to plasteredville? Looking for recommendations.

I enjoy both the taste and getting plastered. 

 

That's hot.

 

 

I love scotch.

 

I do not drink to get drunk.

 

1-2 drinks an evening is more than enough and i'm far far from wasted.

 

 

Only liquor I've developed a finer taste for is gin. 

 

 

You're the absolute worst. 

 

Maybe you better understand why I'm a commie lime anti trump unamerican bastard now

Never had gin. Thought about trying Bombay Sapphire.

Gin is a shit old timey drink that tastes worse than urine.

 

Never had a golden shower But I' believe I'll try the gin first.

Rum and whiskey is normally what I drink mixed with coke but id really like to learn about flavor profiles and things like that.

Between the two most common gins you'll see, Bombay and Tanqueray, both aren't that great but personally I prefer Tanqueray. Hendricks is somewhat common -- better than both.

 

 

for what it's worth, don't drink gin with anything but tonic or soda, unless it's a crafted cocktail. 

 

Youre in for something really nasty if you put it in coke. 

 

 

PS still waiting on feedback from that whiskey flight!

 

 

That movie is everything that's wrong with PC culture.

What do you mean? I was able to stay away from the controversies and drama and just saw it for fun without over thinking it and I actually enjoyed it. It was pretty good and I didn't regret watching it.

Haven't tried scotch. I have tried  a couple American whiskeys like Jim Beam and Jack Daniels. Never had the jack straight though.

Scotch is smoky, definitely only try it straight or on the rocks.

Not all scotch is smokey.

Huh, learn something new every day. I thought that was part of the definition, I suppose not. 

 

Well, is it just a stereotype then? Most scotch I've had is smoky. I generally avoid all whiskeys that aren't bourbon.

The definition of scotch is made in Scotland.

 

Like champagne from the champagne region of France.

Try glengoyne for a non smokey scotch

 

The smokey taste comes from the peat

 

The areas where a lot of peat is used will have more smokey scotch.

 

Islay region will be quite peaty.

 

The highlands will be peaty as well

 

Look for a scotch made in the lower regions of Scotland for a less peaty (smokey) scotch.
