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

Still have a sealed bottle of Hibiki 12 for a rainy day… @mclaincausey

[mclaincausey]

Such great stuff!

[Tago Mago]

Mezcal negroni

[Tago Mago]

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

[mclaincausey]

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

[goosehd]

@mclaincausey slightly chilled or at room temperature?

[Tago Mago]

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

[mclaincausey]

@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

[Jett129]

@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.

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

[ARNC]

@endo I could so use one (or two) of those right now! Gotta drive home first.

[Tago Mago]

@ARNC we’re an hour ahead. You’re still on schedule

[ARNC]

@Tago-Mago I’ve been on your time (virtually) for the last 4 days and won’t be home for a couple of hours. You’ll be way ahead by the time I have a chance to start!

[endo]

Bon voyage @ARNC and enjoy when you're home

[ARNC]

@endo thanks - finally got there!
