CPK and Whisky (or other vices), a pictorial

[Cap’n Smudge]

I mean there are those who say one little cube opens it up...I suppose there's some legitimacy to that. I've had it both ways.

But, I take my single malt and my bourbon neat.

I’m hip. I’ve always enjoyed my scotch/whiskey/bourbon neat.

These days I can’t drink most whiskey and bourbons - they just taste too sweet (and put me in touch with some darkness). But I used to enjoy them thoroughly. Possibly too much.

I prefer Rye and neat. Bourbon is usually too sweet for me.

I prefer a little bite. That's what I like about that JTS Brown bourbon. It growls a little.

But I hear ya. I can't take overly sweet bourbon, and I need the peat and the heat from single malt or I lose interest. I'm not much of a drinker these days.

 

[SpyderPhreak]

I like bourbons if they're not overly sweet. I'll add ice for sure if they are. I'm really expanding my horizons with Rye lately.

Nice!
laphroaig is my favourite

Hell yeah. I love Laphroaig. And Talisker.

 

[SpyderPhreak]

Gotta always have a bottle of The Frog on hand.

Havent tried that, but I may need to now

Drinking days are behind me, but what I remember with fondness are anything from Balvenie (esp the Doublewood and the Caribbean cask), Lagavulin 16 , Macallan 12 and gallons of sour beer.

I have a little bit of Balvenie Doublewood and most of a bottle of Macallan 12 which didn't make it into yesterday's image. (Those are two my wife will drink on occasion...she doesn't care for peaty malts.)

Most days I just have a beer.

Occasionally wine.

It's Saturday, rye not?

I think I'll have a dram for medicinal purposes...

Crappy picture - dark room with a small incandescent light.
Here's another image in somewhat better lighting...but no CPK

It's a nice glass for relaxing - just shy of the 1.5 lb mark. (22.85 oz, dry)

I guess you could call caffeine a vice

I guess you could call caffeine a vice

Most definitely! One of my biggest!

 

[Murphjd25]

I think I see something other then just caffeine in that picture…

So much of that powdery white stuff laying around, I just toss it wherever...
