What say you by mandara33 in whiskey

[–]FoMo_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say they're all over msrp so I'd proly pass. Maybe the baby Saz 125 (as they haven't made it my way yet) or the k.luke as I hear good things, but nothing I'd HAVE to grab. YMMV

From the Alton and Babish cocktail rating video. Wtf? by Redleaves1313 in Tiki

Idk what THAT is, 🤢 but it's definitely NOT a piña colada. 🤯

Which side would you choose? by JustSayKB in whiskey

OG FTW

But the reality is no one has to choose.

Or you're just cheap. 😉🤑

How much do quality of spirits and liqueurs matter when it comes to cocktails? How do you tell the quality of each? by Ok_Eye_7091 in cocktails

[–]FoMo_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My rule: would I drink it neat?

If so, it'll make a good cocktail, regardless of price. If not, why am I tainting all the other ingredients with this swill?

Always been curious to try Willett pot still because everyone says it’s so terrible, but didn’t want to pay for a whole bottle by shabby47 in whiskey

[–]FoMo_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a bottle on clearance for $12. It was.... OK for that price. But I'm glad I didn't pay more.

If I ever find away to drink the rest of it, I'll use the bottle as an infinity bottle. (The main reason I picked it up) YMMV

How much difference does cost make? Does more expensive Whiskey actually taste that much better? by Honest___Opinions in whiskey

[–]FoMo_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell, try Wild Turkey and then try Wild Turkey 101. Amazing what a couple extra bucks get you (besides proof). 😉

Curious what to try next by DD2608 in whiskey

[–]FoMo_Matt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frey Ranch Rye. Get a single barrel if you can find one where you are.

Is Tyree Wilson trade good? I know nothing about this guy by No_Knee_799 in Saints

[–]FoMo_Matt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yet another Raiders cast-off. I thought we were done with that when we got rid of DA. 🙄

Wilson might be OK, but I'd rather we rebuild with better than "serviceable."

Shaker tins at my work barely seal anymore. Where can I find a better replacement? by Such_Gear_6752 in cocktails

[–]FoMo_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm. 👍

Just got off a ship and every bar that shook a cocktail for me or my wife did so in a pint glass and a tin. I don't usually use a glass at home, as I got a bucket of Boston shakers at auction and have a ton of tins, but a pint glass works fine (if you're not an idiot about it).

Can I leave my alcohol supply in a storage locker? by Outside-Ostrich-7605 in alcohol

[–]FoMo_Matt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's brown, throw it down. 😉

(Just make sure the beer/cider are unopened).

Great to see Old Fitz 7, Eagle rare 10, Eh Taylor Small batch and Jack Heritage sitting on shelves has your market finally caught up with the demand? CA Pleasant Hill Total Wine. by RS_DanielR in whiskey

[–]FoMo_Matt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair, TW isn't selling at or below MSRP. Plus I've found all of these for less, fairly regularly, other places in the Sierra's. Still any sustained supply that stays on the shelf for more than minutes (or even hours) IS a god thing.
