**** yo McCallan, I got Pappy van Winkle. Also, I mix nothing with Jack Honey. It's just so good on it's own.


indeed it is ... but Jack Honey & Ginger is amazing (also, I have to travel a lot, so at bars ... apparently you get ~more~ liquor with a mixed drink than ordering it neat).

fair enough on the pappy ... but at least McCallan is somewhat more generally obtainable ... I believe either fits the bill quite nicely

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

My favorite is Glenlivet 18yrs Single Malt. After all, isn't everything better when its 18?

I was hunting for sick loot, but all I could get my hands on were 50 corpses[:|]..............[:=d]

Bourbon and Rye aren't my favorites, but I've found examples that I like.
Just like its bacon, no whiskey that's come out of Canada has been acceptable.


The good stuff comes from those silly little islands of Northern France.

This thread reminds me of the feedback threads on ship balancing. Everyone having different opinions about why xyz is better than abc. A strong sign of balanced ships. Of course now we are talking about drinking the good stuff and we have the same responses on what is better and why. Maybe they are balanced? Is it odd that CCP Fozzie is involved in this somehow? Why are we disusing this instead of drinking? And, where the hell was I?

If you like 18 year old Glenlivet you should probably try 15 year old Highland Park.

Oh liquor, you make me so happy.

As for good whiskeys:

Ardbeg Corryvreckan is incredible. Argbeg Ardbog is good as well. I had a Macallan 18 the other day, that was some good scotch.


Also, anyone else drink Armagnac? It's one of my favorite spirits. We should introduce CCP to some good Armagnac.

Stop lying and calling it bacon and I won't hate your country so much for it.

It's Ham


And your whisky, like your maple syrup is still inferior (VT4LYFE).

Why bring up beer in a thread about liquor and Canada bashing?
Canada actually produces some good beers.

Missed the bit where I recommended the Sempe 15 year Armagnac, eh? ;) But yes! It's brilliantly tasty. You definitely need it a bit more aged than a cognac, but it's quite flavorful. I was turned onto it by a friend who's definitely a liquor snob in the best of ways.

Also, Anslo-- haven't we talked beer before? I'm in the Pacific Northwest. We have microbreweries and hop growers the way California has wineries and vineyards. Mind, Pac NW beers tend to be hopbombs-- even the stuff that isn't hoppy --but it's definitely exposed me to good stuff. Trappist ales are always fun, and I love Mikkeler's work, but I tend to like ambers and reds most of all. Ninkasi's spring and summer seasonals are reliable buys, and I'll endorse virtually anything by Dogfish Head (Mida's Touch was my first favorite artisan beer, and I love all of their ancient ales), aaand... yeah. Going to stop there. Big smile

I need to practice making a decent snakebite for my fiancee. I think it'll be how I start getting her into stouts and porters.

Whatever you enjoy, just make sure that your brain cells die with dignity - always drink good booze, good wine, and good beer.

Pretty much, that means avoiding anything you see advertised on American television.

Following that rule won't always be correct (Tusker Lager in Africa was absolute ******-over cougar **** strained through a septic tankShocked, but I digress), but will rarely, if ever, be wrong.

Beer from the Czech Republic, New Zealand, Australia, and South Africa may be freely sampled without encountering disappointment. Upscale Finnish vodka, Guinness, Spanish wine, and the rum selections from the British Navy Club in Hong Kong are also highly recommended.

Pisco from Peru (along with ceviché, yum!) may be trusted, but you might want to stay away from anything from that part of the world that tastes of black licorice, as you may awaken with entire WEEKS missing from your memory.

Don't ask....Ugh
