After a night of Japanese whiskey mookie wishes he were dead. There is a faint memory of a cabbie helping mookie out of his car last night.... and another of an ugly American throwing up on a sidewalk while stumbling around trying to follow google maps on the phone![]()
Japanese whiskey is very good. If you have a bottle of Yamazaki 18 around here, you are holding gold. I can't even imagine what the 25 goes for. FTR, a pub near me has the 18, for $25/pour. And I must say, it's worth it, considering it's a pub/what the bottle goes for.
$25 is incorrect. Yamazaki 12 maybe. Not the 18. No way.
Diesel has a bottle of the 18 regular, and the 18 special reserve in the archive.
It was very good. Just should have stopped early, and not had so much wine to start.

A night of whiskey/gin/rum, I usually feel fine the next day. A night of beer? I feel it sometimes, but usually bounce back pretty quickly. Trip to the bathroom usually takes care of it. Mixing the two? Toast. I'm useless for days if I went hard enough.
I don't have more than a glass of wine anymore. My head just won't agree with it. It's a shame, I like wine. But holy crap it's not worth it for me. Vera asked me once, while I was clearly struggling to exist after a bottle of wine the previous night, what she could do to help. I told her to cut my head off. Wasn't kidding.
Clearly that's ridiculous. My brain is what it's telling me I'm in pain, and it's my brain that actually hurt. Wouldn't have fixed anything. Didn't matter. I was willing to give it a shot.
Southern Tier Thick Mint is showing up around here.... Heard good things last year, but it was after the fact, so we'll see how it goes. Got a 4-pack...
We had a Founders takeover at mel’s kitchen today. We made it through four of the six barrel aged beers - didn’t get to KBS and CBS. Probably knock those two back with breakfast in the morning.![]()
There's a lot of solid research on this website for dedicated drinkers.
