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

          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."

              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.

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

                    That bottle is on my short list.

                      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.

                                Not really, that's a classic cocktail, very old school. I make em myself. The egg whites emulsify it, it's pretty cool

                                    Is there a better sounding name than Whiskey Sour with Egg White?

                                      This one is good. Whiskey, Lemon, egg, shake. Optional bitters. I did a brandy egg sour the other night, magnificent.

                                        Sounds great. I bet the egg adds a little mouthfeel that rounds out the drink. Looking forward to trying it. By the way, since we've talked so much about Sazeracs, I thought I should mention that I flipped through my giant cocktail book the other day. It has about a thousand recipes in it. I looked up the Saz….. no dice. I was really surprised. For one of the original cocktails to not be in this book, it seemed really strange. Anyway, just thought I'd share that.

                                          Very odd. A single egg white, a jigger of whiskey, a half a lemon, and a shake. You need to try that and share your thoughts! Some will put a few drops of bitters on the foam too for decoration and aroma.

                                          Think it, be it.
