I'll take Potent Potables for $100 Alex.

IMO if you have to dip your cigars in rum...you need better cigars!!

My fav is Dalwhinnie but tonight I am drinking a 15 year old Glenmorangie:ylsmoke:

Hmmm, I guess the sun is over the yardarm. I think I'll find a comfy chair and a book and settle in with a bottle. I'll run over to the local liquor barn first and see if they have The Macallan.

Port is always fashionable.

X2 on the Don Julio :sombrero:

Oh yeah!

I'm going to have to bring a bottle of port on the next trip.

If its a trip that I will be along please make it a bottle of Ramos Pintos 40-year old Tawny...that'll do me just fine sir!

Lagavullin. A smokey and peaty single malt, guaranteed to cause contemplation

I'll have to try the Lagavullin tonight as I've been contemplated for a few days.. Does it help bloating and gas?

Correction that was for the 30 YO stuff

And your still not cute enough.

...back to Tequila while the weather's still warm. I've been enjoying the crisp silvers lately: Chinaco and 1921. Nothing too pricey and thoroughly enjoyable.

If you like tequila try German Kirschwasser. It's an unsweetened cherry brandy with a flavor a lot like tequila.

I'm not that fond of drinking Kirschwasser. In my house it only gets used for fondue and Black Forest cake.

Peaty?...just a wee bit.

Although the American versions taste a bit like Ronsinol lighter fluid, I have found that a good mead is a nice treat at the end of the day.

I prefer Moniack Farms, near Beauly, but any decent mead will usually suffice.

It's an acquired taste for sure.
Another cooking use is to sprinkle fresh strawberries with kierschwasser and sugar and let them macerate for a couple of hours.

 

[Mike_rupp]

Kirsch doesn't really taste bad, it's just that so many drinks taste better. On the flipside, it is perfect for a few things that I cook.

I'll admit, though, that there have been desperate times when my other stocks were depleted and I did drink some.

Finding a decent mead in a liquor store is extremely difficult. Any suggestions?
