What Did You Drink Last Night?

[rkwilker]

Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka.......and ice w/lemon slice. Perfect North Carolina summertime refreshment.

I enjoyed some Edradour 10 year old. Just after I'd poured it, I suddenly wondered whether or not a long drink would have been preferable (given how warm it has been), but didn't end up with any regrets - it was a lovely wind-down drink.

A Feckin Warsteiner:

2-3 ounces Feckin Irish whiskey in 12 ounces of Warsteiner Radler. :cheers1:

 

[CopperNY]

Mad Dog Hefeweisen with dinner and a finger of Buffalo Trace bourbon for a nightcap.

Tried a Fairbanks #1 cocktail....fully expecting to not like it due to the dry vermouth. I was pleasantly surprised to find it quite nice.

I had a "Better Than Sex" martini. Was rather good.

Jack Daniels

12 year old Elijah Craig

Tried a "Fair and Warmer" cocktail....fully expecting to not like it due to the dry vermouth. I was pleasantly surprised to find it quite nice.

It isn't that much sweet vermouth but I make mine with more Cointreau than the recipe calls for.

Smallest distillery in Scotland, nice one.

Wild Turkey 101, neat. I don't care what connotations wild turkey may have; this is a fine sipping whiskey for fans of Knob Creek and Woodford Reserve. I love the stuff!

What's wrong with Wild Turkey?

Today:

Cragganmore 12y. - I really begin to love this one
Glenlivet 15y. French Oak Reserve
Aberlour a'bunadh Batch No. 25 - one of the most unique things I have had the pleasure to taste!

All of these are really interesting as I was quite the Islay guy until recently, but it was a good decision to broaden my horizon

Best regards,
Captain B

What's wrong with Wild Turkey?

nothing, but, in some places Wild Turkey carries a -very- strong negative/redneck stigma.

of course i never heard that until i went to college. but, growing up between Trout Creek and Chipmunk Hollow (not kidding), you don't realize they are talking about you.....

my friends from West Virginia call Wild Turkey and Coke a "Turkey Sandwich" (properly pronounced "sammich" ).

 

[BinkieBaumont]

"Yellow Tail" Shiraz, my first venture into Yellow Tail, rather a pleasant surprise and a rather spiffingly stylish, and distinctive label

 

[campy]

I made us Sidecars lat night. They turned out great! I must have hit the proportions just right. Too bad I don't remember what they were ...

 

[Solid Citizen]

TIKI drinks

A couple of Hurricanes with 151 drizzle Solid Citizen

My mistake. My review was actually for the Fairbanks #1 cocktail.

Tonight: Fourth Degree cocktail. Very nice.

I visited a neat little bar near downtown Houston to unwind and asked the bartender for something I have not had in quite a few years - a "Clover Leaf", which I had even forgotten the ingredients...

1940's Clover Leaf Cocktail

• 1 lime
• 2 teaspoons grenadine
• 1 egg white
• 1½ teaspoons dry gin

Shake well with cracked ice and strain into 4-ounce cocktail glass. Serve with mint leaf on top.
