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

What's that like @Daniel-San ?

Tried to do a bit of searching and maybe it sounds a bit like chartreuse?

Some Mead to warm up

@pechelman
it’s a liquor/ booze . but the absolutely top level with 60% alcohol. The bottle is made of some kind of stone stuff as it’s so strong
The uncle of my wife always has it when celebrating his birthday.

@pechelman Should be Jaegermeister style, just a lot stronger.

Had this guy and enjoyed it. I really love their 16 year though. Feel like it’s a good staple and great price/performance.

[seawolf]

@mclaincausey How does it compare to the 16? I buy a bottle of the 16 every year around this time, and I've been curious about the 11.

A nice sipper on a Saturday evening!

[mclaincausey]

@seawolf it’s beyond serviceable but easily it is worth the premium for the 16 IMO.

Bought this for a friends birthday. Very good! Amazingly smooth for 106°

[seawolf]

@mclaincausey from what I’ve seen, the 16 is coming down in price, so that’s always nice.

One of our vendors dropped off a 1.75L today.....

I love a Bloody Mary, but I'm always disappointed wit the ones available on airplanes. This time I brought a little kit with me to make the best of it.

The kit includes:

1. Celery salt
2. Fresh ground black pepper
3. Tabasco sauce
4. Celery stalk for garnish

@seawolf this is impressive and now I’m craving a Bloody Mary

[seawolf]

@SKT I don't drink them often, but when you're in the mood for one, they really hit the spot.

[mclaincausey]

Sazeracs, a bourbon sour with peach tea, and ultimately coffee martinis last night. The suspicious looking powder in the background is just chalk from a geology dig toy Hattie got for Christmas

[seawolf]

It wasn't suspicious until you pointed it out. Love a sazerac!

[pechelman]

I despise bloody Marys (maybe belongs in the unpopular opinion thread) but I thoroughly loved the dedication and execution there @seawolf

Top marks!

[seawolf]

@pechelman They're not for everyone, that's for sure. I completely understand why a cocktail made with tomato juice isn't for everyone. Honestly, liking bloody Marys is probably the unpopular opinion here.

[mclaincausey]

I have to be in the mood and it has to be the morning but I’ll generally reach for a corpse #2, spritz, mimosa, or something similar for a morning drink. My favorite bloodies tend to have a lot of hot sauce, Worcestershire, celery seed, and ideally fixins to proxy a proper breakfast. Go ahead and toss a chicken wing on there
