@ArthurKuntler @LA_Confidant @interstatejuche Me too but sometimes you have to help even your most coonish mufos out

Iran is currently Paul Atreides standing on top of the pre-spice mass with the Water of Life threatening to bring all travel in the empire to a halt
I know this is nerdy but trust me this is the perfect analogy
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe Oh yeah I use it in cooking all the time, it's important to getting the right taste in a bunch of (Americanized-)Chinese dishes. But shaoxing, cooking sherry, even bitters all have to conspicuously say they are not for drinking to avoid restrictions
English
@AlphonsUnem @reg_pepe I find shaoxing wine hilarious, "not for consumption" is on the label in the grocery store. In NYS, Grocery stores can only sell beer. I use shaoxing wine to make Singapore noodles.
English
Sagamore 10 might be the best bottle by value that I have
kevin@AlphonsUnem
TIL the guy who founded Under Armor also founded Sagamore Spirits, maker of fantastic rye whiskey
English
@My_Constituents You probably can split base a sazerac if you go back far enough but the Benedictine and sweet vermouth make it different. No absinthe rinse either
English
A "New Orleans Manhattan" but better than an actual Manhattan
kevin@AlphonsUnem
And now a Vieux Carré. 3/4 oz each rye, cognac, and sweet vermouth, 1/2 oz benedictine (my store was out of it for *months*). 2 dashes each Peychauds and ango bitters. Lemon garnish
English
@AlphonsUnem A Shirley Temple for the distinguished gentleman
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe Yeah but you can find sochu/soju all over now. I guess I can find shaoxing wine in most grocery stores...
English
@AlphonsUnem @reg_pepe It is similar to Korea where it is swill. The India whiskeys are not bad, I don't think they are worth the money though and they are from India.
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe Even *India* allegedly makes some decent whiskeys now
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe I can't name a single drink from that country except Tsingtsao (founded by Germans and Anglos) so I'm presuming they're either absolutely dependent on foreign products or drink complete swill
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe Because the Ch*namen heavily patronize my local costco they actually have a bunch of Japanese whiskeys and nice brandy/cognac in the glass box there
English
@AlphonsUnem @reg_pepe He always had Hibiki, it was really good, which isn't surprising because it is a top tier whiskey.
English
@Suicideofthewes @Blartskopf LeRetard is the king shitlib of all shitlibs in sports writing, which is impressive in a way
English
@Blartskopf He still isn't as bad as Dan LeBaRetard.

Ha. Zero likes or retweets. This fággot used to write for a Chicago newspaper but left because newspapers were soon to be dead he said. Looks like his career is dead. Also, why do you attach that gay picture to all your tweets, loser?

COLUMN: CINDERELLAS NO LONGER EXIST, BUT WE WON’T STOP SEARCHING FOR THEM IN MARCH open.substack.com/pub/jaymariott… What interests us in the NCAA tournament? Oh, High Point (over Wisconsin), Miami of Ohio (over SMU), Virginia Commonwealth (over North Carolina) and a crazy Siena story that rattled top-ranked Duke

@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe Reg here had me try Glenfiddich 14 which is more bourbon-profile approachable but it really made me want a bourbon instead of more Scotch
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe I do need to try better Japanese whiskey. I have two bottles but one (Mars Iwai) is not very good and one is a plum whiskey, which is tasty especially in some cocktails but not a fair comparison
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe I really should grab a Glenlivit 12 from Costco one of these days - it's the cheapest place - both for myself to try and for guests since I know a few friends like it.
English
@AlphonsUnem @reg_pepe I will buy it if I can find it. I would advise starting with a Glenmorangie or Glenlivet. It is in the same vein as the bourbon and rye that you have now. Also to they are not super expensive either.
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe "Then try a Campbeltown". It was a Glen Scotia. I would not have used the term motor oil but in a sense it's impressive how massively different a "whisk(e)y" can taste
English
@AlphonsUnem @reg_pepe I have never tasted motor oil. I do like good motor oil in my engine.
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe The other joker in this thread got me to drink a Scotch (from Campbeltown) that I described as "effervescent chemicals" and he called "motor oil" so I'm well aware of the range
English
@AlphonsUnem @reg_pepe I bought Ardbeg Corryvreckan this past Christmas. A top tier scotch is super smooth with great lingering flavor. The Corryvreckan made the standard 10 year Ardbeg taste like water. Scotch has a wide flavor profile. That is why I enjoy it.
English
@Suicideofthewes @reg_pepe The notes on these highlands sound good to me but I've already said my issues with an all-malt mashbill. Typically as bourbon ages you taste less and less grain, what's the deal with Scotch?
English
@reg_pepe @AlphonsUnem I have switch to more Highland scotches. I use to go hard into Islay.
English
@AlphonsUnem Yeah but you could provide off-the-cuff commentary about um different "groups" of people ya know like "So I was driving today and this--"
