Do you drink gin as it is, or do you have anything in...

razark · 11-01-10, 07:03 PM

Gin and tonic is my usual drink of choice. Lime is nice, but optional.

I started drinking it back in college. It seems none of my friends liked it, so I kept a bottle around. If I had whiskey, or vodka, or anything else, it would disappear pretty quick. Gin? My own private bottle.

Oy, don't talk to me about alcohol until this wears off.

Gin is really a special taste, either you're for or against, but a whiskey is never wrong, and then I take it as it is, never with water or ice

Most dangeous drug in the world doing more damage to health and causing more costs to the healthcare systems than any other?

I need to find a decent whiskey, and give it a try. I really haven't had much since my heavy drinking days at school.

Try some Ezra Brooks 12-year. A little pricey as bourbon goes, but I promise you won't be disappointed.

Bourbon can be perfectly OK, if it is not too bitter,

Ah! Subsim!

Where one gets recommendations on good brands of whiskey in a thread about how bad alcohol is.

Looks like I need to make a trip to the liquor store.
