        @scooter That’s an insane price on the Calumet 16. Cheapest I’ve ever seen it for was $127.

          @Jett129 , no doubt. Cheapest price I came across was $145.

              @mclaincausey how did the rest of your Berlin trip unfold? Any success picking up a mezcal?

                @Tago-Mago worked 16 hour days from the hotel until finally getting some time Saturday. Walked all over town and had a great time but no time for mezcal. I absolutely adore Berlin and want to return one day, and probably stay at the Kempinski Adlon again—loved the hotel and best breakfast buffet I’ve ever had, for only €40 including unlimited champagne and caviar.

                There’s a lot that Germany does better than the US. Y’all have it pretty good over there!

                    @SourPower back in the days when whisky was affordable Hibiki 12 (now Harmony lacking the age statement) was a favorite. Enjoy!

                            @Jett129 @mclaincausey do you use mezcal for mixing or do you sip it?

                              @Tago-Mago Almost exclusively sip. I'll try a cocktail with it in there but generally just enjoy it neat. Same with tequila.

                                @mclaincausey slightly chilled or at room temperature?

                                  How would you drink it? Neat, on the rocks, splash of water to dilute?

                                    @goosehd Room temp. With higher proof ones if it comes out a bit hot I will revisit after 20-30 minutes, or even aerate with a frother.

                                    I have had good cocktails with it, and it can work as a float too, but that's not usually what I do, and I don't mind saving on the calories either 😆

                                      @Tago-Mago I mostly sip mezcal out of small cups called copitas,and have orange slices with Sal de Gusano sprinkled on them,to bite into after drinking. I will occasionally float some on top of a margarita turning it into a Mezcalita.IMG_0944.jpeg

                                          This weekends tipple and very nice it is too.

                                          Daftmill is a very small farm distillery near St Andrews in Fife.

                                          Delicious stuff. Small quantity releases so pick one up if you get the chance 👍

                                          There is no 'I' in team …............ however there are five in 'individual brilliance'.
