1. tell me what the fuck this damn drink is about.

2. I just spent over an hour trying to down a tumbler of laphroaig. nothing but sips. it tasted fine and was smooth and all but sips are the only way.

Whisky is gore-rotted shit. Plus, it ain't cheap. I jam econo.

Once, with a couple of friends, we downed an entire bottle between the three of us in the parking lot of Loews theater. We were piss ass drunk during the movie, which made it bearable (euro-trip or something), but when I got into my house, I stumbled, and vomited in the sink. Such a bad taste that "fine aged liquor" has.

not sure the difference between Scotch and Irish whiskeys, but I do enjoy the Jameson, which is Irish.

it's easy to get pukey drunk off any hard liquor.

I dunno if sips change this. I can usually get away with a couple shots, maybe three, before I get pukey.

Lagavulin

It tastes a bit like iodine and band-aids.

Amazing!

I adore Scotch.

Scotch...

In Baltimore there is an actual scotch bar.
You can't smoke, but your selections are amazing.
They range anywhere from $5 and $90 and you have a choice of Budweiser (not recommended) and water as chasers.
This joint even has a fireplace for in the winter.

Drink scotch whiskey all night long.

And die behind the wheel.

I think in bang-for-your-buck terms, Scotch Whisky is the most flavorful drink you can buy.

I would take a bottle of good Scotch over the equivalent priced bottle of anything else.

Right on Donny.

Try some water in your whisky. Laphroaig and Lagavulin require it.
