That's a bio hazard, a weapon of mass destruction.

Or @BAD LUCK DUCK drinks it, and then apparently it would become a weapon of mass defecation

Trying to determine which I like best, all good, but I think order of preference is right to left

Was I correct in saying that Jameson is a poor relation to the other two?

In my very short experience I wouldn't say its a poor relation, it is just that the others are better. Bushmills gets better each time, at first I favoured Tullamore, but after subsequent tastings Bushmills wins for me. Jameson has a great aroma which doesn't quite translate to the taste, but its still very drinkable IMO

Excellent!
As I said to you the other day. I can't say which brand is "best". I can only say which brand I prefer.

Sarky has a son-in-law who provides his hooch foc.
I believe the exchange is based on Sarky not mentioning that his daughter could definitely have done better?

I don't drink nowadays.... But..

I once bought a very expensive bottle of Glefarclas, knowing it would go up in value. Was living with the parents at the time... It was always very hot in my room, so I put it in the drinks cabinet, in a box, sealed.

Saw the price go up, thought time to sell, went to get it out... Box opened, seal gone on bottle, and about 1/8th down the bottle.

So... "Mother! Who's been at this bottle?" "Oh, I put some in cousin Ethels tea the other week when it was cold."

In TEA! Fer fux sake. So I sat and drank the friggen lot.

I do remember them opening the wrong tap at Grants Distillery near Girvan... Emptied quite a lot of neat spirit straight into the sea. They did Grouse there I think.
Now, if you drink grouse, stop reading now. The Penwhapple reservoir was just over the hill from our house, and was used as the main supply for Grants. I have pissed in that reservoir hundreds if times. As did our dog.

Enjoy!

@DD67 is responsible for my new found fondness of Irish whiskey

 

[DD67]

If this scene wasn't so dimly lit. You'd see that he'd offered them a drop of his Irish whiskey. But they declined ...

Is that a feckin half sized bottle Ashurst?!?

Anyway, despite the fact that you may have purchased a childs size bottle?
What's the verdict? If you like it (as someone who hates Scotch like Scrappy does) I'll chalk it up as another massive win for proper whiskey

But I'm not holding my breath. I reckon your hatred of Scotch could run too deep to enjoy Irish?
