Hard Drinkers, Lets Drink Hard (Spirits, Liquors and Cocktails)

Has anyone else tried this?

They're new on the block and have an interesting story and method. Very clean. Best enjoyed neat.

They're only distributed in a few states, right now, but definitely worth the purchase if you stumble across it.

Better believe it's in the mix now, and I am a guy that sticks to shit he likes.

Sean,

Will keep an eye peeled. I like bourbon, so much that if it's liquor we're drinking, that's what I'll have regardless. I do like a bit of variety though, so if I see it….

[seanocono]

Cool, and please report back if you try some.

I'm curious to hear an opinion from a forum member. My friends are idiots and will drink anything (you know what they say about the company you keep).

[jdl1279]

Yeah and I bum around with assholes, so what does that say?

Well, given the longstanding distilling tradition in the NC mountains, it's gotta be good.

I'll have to look for that when I visit my folks in NC this spring.

[Chris]

Where in NC are they?  I'm from Charlotte, so I'm always curious about members with connections.

[mclaincausey]

Says Bostic on the label.

[mclaincausey]

It also says that it's distilled from malted barley. So we're looking at more of a Scotch than a bourbon style here I think. This hypothesis is also supported by the missing "e" in "whisky."

[Chris]

I was referring to sabergirl's parents.

[seawolf]

I saw this at my local packie. I'm not a Scotch drinker so this didn't appeal to me, but it certainly piqued my interest.

[jdl1279]

Mclain,

Yeah, my comment was meant more along the lines of I like bourbon, but this could work for variety

[derivative666]

I was  a huge fan of Jeffersons Presidential Select 21 before I stopped drinking bourbon.

[seawolf]

Jeff,

That bottle is on my short list.

[mclaincausey]

I generally don't buy from independent bottlers personally. Perhaps a narrow minded hangup, but I go to the source, if they didn't distill it, I'm not interested. Same with scotch and even Irish whiskey.

[derivative666]

I buy one for Katsushin every time  I see him for our yearly marathon session.

[mclaincausey]

I think that stuff is old stuff from a great, but now closed, distillery.

Whisky Sour with Egg White

That's different
