“DH I bet you in a blind taste test you won’t be able to tell the difference between the artesanal small batch whiskey of your choice and the mass produced swill of my choice.”
In whiskeys i absolutely could. last week i did a blind irish whiskey test with my friend who was bar tending and was able to pick out which was jameson/powers and tullamore dew (they are all of equal quality – so harder)

I threw down a challenge like that to some guys at the 12th St bar and grill one night a couple of months ago. By 3 am the results were declared inconclusive. The next morning was difficult.
Ever since the Tuscon shooting I’ve been avoiding doing the totally unhinged just for comic effect on the OT thing. Suddenly it seems really inappropriate do act a little bit crazy just for show. What a total fucking buzzkill.
scotch is foreign to me – so many different varieties (highlands, lowlands, islay, blends)
Irish whiskeys have very different flavors. Scotches do too but the diff is more subtle than that between a single malt & a blend.

I read last night that the monk Dom Perignon was a teetotaler and invented champagne as a gift to God.

lech – Anyone would be able to tell the diff between any single malt & mass produced swill.
