Today I am drinking a fine 9 year old Kentucky bourbon. Three fingers in a highball with ice. I just poured my third glass

My condolences, if you are watching the Korean version.

It's about an orphan prostitute.

No this one was about a baity Austrian fellow with one testicle who had his dreams of being an artist thwarted by War.

 

Actually, put like this it sounds like the kind of thing they'd invent to win a Palm D'Or.

That sounds quite nice, is it based on a true story?

 

And what would you recommend to drink to be able to watch that movie?

Grabbed a bottle of Brandy today. I figure it must be good, it's the only alcohol I know of that people name their child after. Well, also Budweiser.

 

Maybe not as special a club as I initially thought.

 

I like it.

That sounds about the right amount to get smashed, would probably need that to get through it. ;)

 

If I were to get smashed, I could probably finish that bottle of mead...

I prefer a decent whiskey in my Irish Coffee. 12 years minimum. No instant coffee either, thank you very much. Otherwise, I'm not much of a whiskey person, preferring Cognac. Part of my weekend ritual is to indulge in a generous glass of a local XO brand (a by product of the local wine industry down here). Very decent stuff. Other than that little luxury, alcohol intake is usually limited to Friday afternoon beer at work and the monthly "Friday Night Drinks" (which also includes more food than you can shake a stick at). Various beers, wines and spirits.

You... put 12 year malt in your COFFEE?

 

:skeptical:

Rough day, so am now on a very friendly burgundy with a friend and colleague, just reviewing.

The Glenfiddich 12 year old is excellent for Irish Coffee. Get some decent brewed coffee from fresh ground beans, some real cream (not whipped) and some light brown sugar (a bit of molasses, but not too much) :)

Currently: Just finishing a bottle of Marsala wine and having a glass of Braastad XO by the side. Later this evening I will visit a bar I was running 2 years ago, it will be exciting to see how things have turned out lately (the number of different beers are now over 100 I hear).

Taking an extended and long-delayed break from drinking. This is the first serious test as I will be at a party with free booze.

Am pleased to say that with the exception of a Spanish grand Reserva it was easy to hold my ground yesterday. I held ground, but it WAS hard to refuse.

 

Still had fun. Which just goes to show I need to hang out with less reputable people.

 

Reckon I'll keep it up until December. Just to prove the point.

Highland park 18yo, still. Has all the stuff I look for in a single malt in one package. In fact, after the two days I've had so far, i'm tempted to just get hammered on work time. Too bad my bosses are teetotallers.

You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?
