quade 4 #1 March 31, 2011 Can't decide on my next spirits purchase. What do you think, should I buy whisky or whiskey? I'm kinda leaning toward whisky. BTW, this is neat, with maybe a drop or two of water. None of that mixing crap. I want to taste something interesting. Have any favorites?quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ltdiver 3 #16 March 31, 2011 I see now *this* is what you are doing. ;^) Learned recently that a nice hot toddy is fantastic for colds and sore throats. Don't know if what was mixed for me had whisky or whiskey, but it was sure good! Happy researching! :^) Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
