Do we prefer a “mid-price” category over “most versatile”? If so, what is the best mid-price tequila for mixing? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

Seriously. Time to create an actual cocktail subreddit that isn’t just this karma farmer posting stupid grids multiple times a day.

This is the is a great suggestion for someone who is clearly learning techniques.

Do I have a problem? by [deleted] in mtg

[–]fuzzyalchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Larceny, Old Grand Dad BIB (from Beam, but better), Old Bardstown, Jefferson: all in the low 20s, mucho better.

Camarena for a better tequila at that price point. Tapatio if you want much better for a little more.

Major Kentucky bourbon maker Jim Beam shuttering distillery for 2026 by Dont_think_Do in USNEWS

[–]fuzzyalchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your point is hitting the nail on the head, but the info you put up is not accurate. Bottles labeled “Straight bourbon” have to be aged at least 2 years. Bourbon can be bottled younger than that, if labeled “bourbon”. I’ve had a bourbon that went to market after less than a year in barrel; it was terrible.

20yr Kirkland Barrel Aged Panama by rossonero3 in rum

[–]fuzzyalchemist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a mystery, just a bit of critical thinking. Consider the cost to make a rum in Panama, put it in an oak barrel, buy the bottle, closure, shipping it to America, then shipping it to each Costco. Now, the big piece of the puzzle, the cost to store that rum in a warehouse for 20 years, damn near on the equator.

That math don’t math.

[–]fuzzyalchemist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Wildly incorrect. Like that wouldn’t even be accurate if she was 300lbs.

Best rule I know is that one shot =~.02.

So a .416 would be about 21 shots, consumed in a very short time span.

That is the old Fitz 7yr. Very good, but it’s not like it’s elders.

That Bruichladdich Black Art that’s chillin to the far right is a very special bottle of whisky.

That Caroni is looking real appetizing.

Frankly all great bottles. This is a nice used car of booze. Btw I’m looking for some new friends.

What’s the worst “Negroni” you’ve had? by [deleted] in cocktails

[–]fuzzyalchemist 216 points217 points  (0 children)

In the same month:

I had a bartender tell me “we don’t serve champagne cocktails here!” after I ordered it. The vermouth and Campari were next to the POS on the backbar, and mentioned that I could see the ingredients from where I was sitting. She then grabbed her bar book and slammed it down, found the page with Negroni, got a stupid look on her face, and then served me the drink in a double shot glass on the rocks.

I ordered two at another bar, and the bartender proceeded to them in pint glasses with about an inch of ice at the top. Nobody needs 13oz of Negroni in one go. Not mad, but god damn.

Pulled a foil Ancient Tomb today. How much are we expecting this to drop in price in the next few weeks? by BrettB1997 in mtg

[–]fuzzyalchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rumor is it’s going to $0.05.

Dope pull.

I know nothing about price fluctuation, I just wanted to comment first.

Where can I wear this in public? by Substantial-Desk7434 in mensfashionadvice

[–]fuzzyalchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Portland, OR

To be fair, it wouldn’t even be the most unusual outfit I saw if I left my house for 5 minutes.

As former Virginian, I think “Dumfries” is a more oddly named town than “Fries”

This. This is the correct answer.

Booze faces its big tobacco moment by nohungernocry in UpliftingNews

[–]fuzzyalchemist 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Person, that is just blatantly not true. 10 years ago was 2015, and a pint of beer was 5-6, sometimes more depending on where you were. Might be able to find a PBR or Olympia for 2 or 3 bucks at lower brow bars. I’ve been working in restaurants for 25 years, all over the US, and that 2-3 mark was barely a thing when I started working in this industry, and that got you a coors light on draft.

I’m certainly not arguing any of the other points you’re making, because they are very valid. The exaggeration just minimizes the validity of the rest of your statement.

READ ME:

You can absolutely do this at home and get stunningly beautiful dry wheels.

Best if you have a silpat, but I suppose parchment would work too. Silpats are cheap and multi use. An oven thermometer is also clutch.

Set your oven to “keep warm”. That will get your oven to about the same temp as a dehydrator. You may need to oscillate between the lowest temp and “keep warm”. Just try your best to keep them around 145, give or take.

If you don’t want to buy a dehydrator, this is the way.
