    Cigar Exchange Protocol

    ;) In any case where hotties and cigars are discussed, I think it's only fair that you specify Which cigar, exactly.. and provide pics of the hottie in question. :) I mean, we can't be expected to make ethical determinations without Evidence, can we?

    Want a free usb flash drive?

    Microsoft did themselves a huge disservice here. Their free drive offer was about as much negative publicity as they could've gotten out of a freebie.. I know MANY computer techs tried to get this 'free offer'.. and every single one of em is peeved. The next screw up from Microsoft, they'll...

    how to collect without..

    oh there ARE 18 shots in a bottle because of golf.. yes, you have it exactly right. It's that the 18 shot bottle is a whole QUART. You're thinking of the traditional size bottle.

    how to collect without..

    I am adamantly and religiously a firm believer that there are truely 15 shots in a bottle. really. and it's a darn good thing I'm so honest or I'd claim 12. :love: might be i fill my shots just one tiny hair above the brim? it could be that.. :rolleyes:

    how to collect without..

    debt.. is a REAL PROBLEM.. cause there's always something just out of reach, unless you're warren buffet or bill gates.. and even if you Are, there's still things there's only ONE of.. and you ain't got it.. The sky is the limit, but the banker and often the spouse are a little more down...

    Scotch & Irish reviews, links & info

    Only because I'm curious.. and willing to indulge myself.. but would you consider a few reviews of the 'odd malts' ? And I don't mean champagne casked (old tired) vintage scotch.. but the (mostly) newer boutique spirits? There are several I have little access to, and it's difficult to know...

    the dusty bottle..

    and of course you can't pass up a bottle on sale. I mean, not a Good one.. :) Sazerac Rye, 18 years old.. distilled spring 1983, bottled fall 2001, 90 proof, product of Kentucky.. 35.99 I don't even want to Drink it, I just want to sit and admire it a while.. :laugh: no, there wasn't...

    Rancio.. huh?

    right, and I guess my question is more a technical tasting inquiry than a pure definition of the term.. I want the meaning as applied to the flavour, and however the original wine tastes it's the meaning as it applies to cognac, and *possibly* scotch.. When they are speaking of rancio, all...

    finally a blend..

    ahh, well, it's awfully Civilized, and watered, and doesn't seem to be rebellious or arguementative.. i have to call it yankee, it's not redneck, and what else is there? EDIT: Followup.. That JW Gold went down like the gas gauge on a new dually truck.. I'm Not going to buy any more booze that...

    a perfect start to

    me too. :) I wanted to see how close we got in our overall impressions. I didn't get roses, I got ripe pear and wild flowers.. but not That different.. it sure drinks easy.

    a perfect start to

    Because, it's not a SINGLE malt, so I can call it a practice swing.. :blush: Johnny Walker Gold.. a new one on me. In my quest for richer and tastier booze, I've skipped over the premium blends while chasing the more unusual flavors.. so when I was offered a trade, I couldn't pass up the...

    finally a blend..

    hard to swallow..:) I did a little shuffling of my stock, moved out two of the extras, and of course had to fill the holes. Dalwhinnie 90, FINALLY I found a bottle.. and Johnny Walker Gold, jes' cause I'd never tasted it. I'm going to test it for bottle rot now.. :) first impression: if...

    Put a Cork In It! ..

    Anybody following me around has heard me cuss at Glenfarclas 105, the only kind of Glenfarclas I tried, and i tried it twice. It bothered me cause it had a metallic aftertaste, a varnishy, linseed oily, palate, like licking a turpentined paintbrush or something.. now, that may not be...

    studyin' rye whiskey

    I've been holding off on the Compass box stuff, chasing rarities and unknowns, the scavenger hunt syndrome.. :) but I'll admit the unpeated ones are on my list.. I really want to try that scotch & orange peel liqueur sometime with the right company.. :) I just get frustrated when there's...

    studyin' rye whiskey

    Seems like there's a huge gap between the 'standard fare' which is young, good value, and findable.. mostly.. and the top shelf rye at more generally 50-100$ range.. Not much in the 10-12 year old, 100 proof range at all.. Which'd be about the sweet spot for a full grown rye. There's not a lot...

    Rancio.. huh?

    OK, I'm ignorant. I hope to be less so soon.. Rancio. It means 'what?'.. something that'd otherwise be a nasty thing but isn't? Must? Mold? Antique? Rancid? The reason why, I've seen it used to describe antique cognacs.. and just LATELY I saw the same word used to describe a particular taste...

    Whats your favorite whiskey

    I don't think i'll put any whisky in it.. but ya'll have sure got me craving a big ol' crushed ice in a soda fountain glass Coke with two straws and maybe some cherry syrup in it too. I havn't had one in years. Wonder if they still do that sort of thing somewhere.. :D

    21st

    alcohol can improve a good meal, and a good evening.. or not. if you really want a good birthday, make it one you can remember later.. the appropriate choice of companion, with gender a most relevant characteristic.. is Very Much more important than which booze. I advise something...
