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

@ARNC @Jett129 I'll have to give it a try. its in the price range that's easier to experiment on. I don't really to cocktails except juleps and O.F.s and both only on occasion. My spirits gotta be able to stand on their own for neat sipping. Sazerac is one of my go-to's, simply best bang for the buck at MSRP. The other great thing about a reasonably priced drink, is that you don't feel obligated to enjoy it 'pure', and don't feel guilty about mixing, especially if it's not the best neat. I'll def have to try Rittenhouse too, I see it around a lot.

@WhiskeySandwich when mixing, my rye usually ends up in Manhattans, but I’m completely with you on pricing and guilt!

I think @Matt and maybe some others were interested in this. They are currently running their Black Friday special which is only 10% off with the code BF10,and you’ll need to buy 3 to hit the Free Shipping threshold. You’ll thank me profusely after you’ve opened the bottle. Makes a great present. 3 bottles came to $129 shipped.

Last weekend, after a delicious dinner and a 1.5l bottle of excellent Primitivo, a bunch of friends and I created a cocktail. Wasn't sure if it was any good (since we were quite pissed then), redid it tonight and I must say it's not that bad. Try if you like:
- Disaronno 4cl
- Cointreau 4cl
- orange juice 6cl
- lemon juice 2cl
- Angosturabitter 2 dashes
- stirred, on ice with orange zest, a rosemary sprig and 3 crushed black peppercorns
I like to call it Don Cipote
