Whiskey II

Funny that you mention the cinnamon candy - as a younger lad, my gateway into liking “whiskey” was Fireball cinnamon whisky, also of the “cinnamon candy masquerading as an alcoholic beverage” variety. Now that I like actual bourbon, I can’t stand the stuff.

I picked up a fifth of Four Roses bourbon recently, as my apartment building is going to have a bourbon tasting/exchange in a few weeks and I wanted to have something with a little story behind it (I’ve been to the Four Roses distillery in Kentucky). It’s OK, not as good as Woodford Reserve IMO, but decent for the price point it comes at.

Either that or you might have a problem :slightly_smiling:

Yeah, I’m pretty sure all the new cinnamon/honey/sour apple/whatever-flavored versions are trying to compare to the “Let’s make vodka in every flavor imaginable so someone somewhere will have a reason to buy this.” Not a fan of the idea.

Just tiny little 90 proof. I can’t quite imagine 133.

245

Ha, um, yeah okay, I didn’t even know that was a thing. I’ll see what’s what.

I happen to be currently wearing mine as I sip Hakushu 12

It might be a tad on the smaller size. I wear XL and it’s a bit tighter than other XLs, in the best way possible.

Be prepared to have people ask how much you deadlift.

I’ve wanted to do the deadlift and whiskey workout for some time now just so I can wear the shirt with integrity. I just can’t find a venue willing to host…

I’ve lucked out, my gym is empty after 10pm.

Just picked this up for the first time. It’s pretty smooth. Reminds me of Makers a bit.

I’ve never seen it … what’s the price point?
