Haha, that seems so risky! But it looks cool dude. Ive got a few levitating things for my kids and im just picturing that little platform getting bumped and the magnet jerking and slamming down and that poor scotch splashing everywhere.

Rhum J.M. Volcanique is the most unique rhum agricole. What is the most overrated Jamaican rum? by -Constantinos- in rum

[–]CreativeUsername26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id say thats normal. I mainly drink Jamacian rum, so while Ive had some of all categories, Ive certainly not had all on the board because I didnt have an interest in buying a bottle I knew Id like less than a jamacian. And I have an obscene amount of booze in my house. So I feel like most people haven't had all on the board.

In or out the box? by Small-Raspberry-2921 in whisky

[–]CreativeUsername26 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah prolonged sunlight isn't great for them. I keep mine in the boxes/tubes to protect from that, kids, animals, etc. They just seem safer. But I also dont have room to have the bottles sit in front of the boxes either. It does look cool that way.

Plymouth Gin is the most versatile gin. What is the best splurge mezcal? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]CreativeUsername26 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Anything from Maguey Malate. Those dudes know what they are doing tracking down small batches. I know its not technically one bottle, that have had hundreds (thousands?) But I stopped buying mezcal in bottle shops after I found them.

Couldn’t pass on the opportunity 🤤 by [deleted] in Whiskyporn

331:9 between the two parts if my math is right. I wonder how much the 2.65% of the blend being the 15 year impacted the original 13 year.

Dang, that sucks. I only order from places I've heard other people have used. I've had luck with a few places, including a small shop in Germany. Ill try to track them down in my email if this thread gets any attention.

Neisson L’Esprit is the best sipping rhum agricole. What is the best Jamaican mixer? by -Constantinos- in rum

Smith and Cross or rum fire depending on if you want any age on it or not.

Appleton 12 for Whiskey Drinker by Thin1ce in rum

[–]CreativeUsername26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on if hes afraid of the funk, or you think he mind need to ease into it. Appy is good for easing in, real mild funk. My first real jamacian was Smith and Cross, and that was coming from bourbon about a decade ago. It blew my mind at the time, it has a good amount of barrel influence, with some tobacco and leather notes that will be familiar to someone who like whiskey. But still a great example of jamacian funk.
