I'd rather know how the flavor of this whiskey being interpreted by someone I consider to be trustworthy works with my intolerant pallet.

Palate

Palate

Sorry. Palate/pallet/pallette is a pet peeve.

Palate

Damnit! I knew I forgot something. Eating fried shrimp and oysters and it threw me off.

 

[Madmarsha]

I don't understand

Me either.

 

[Madmarsha]

I don't like rye bread so would I like this?

 

[Madmarsha]

What about Palantine?

 

[Scorpius the Allfather]

The bottle says rye on it.

I didn't know that. I don't know much about the various whiskies.

You should do scotch from the speyside or highland region. Scotch from those regions aren't peated (smoky) and also have a sweetness to them.

Major difference is that bourbon has to be a least 51% corn and they usually have a large amount of rye. Scotch is pretty much all malted barley. Bourbon isn't aged as long (again, in general) and its in charred virgin oak barrels. Scotch from those regions use barrels that were use to age bourbon and oftentimes are finished in casks that held sherry

Bread don't come in bottles, babe.

Don't cry for me Palentine, the truth is I never left you

And that is exactly why I asked you my question. Thank you.

No problem.

A decent blended scotch is Monkey Shoulder

If you want to get into aged single malt, most people started on Glenlivet and/or Glenfiddich. I prefer Glenfiddich, but they are on the same level as far as quality

Tomatin 12 year is a single malt that costs $27 which is good for that price point

I am hard buzzed in the most beautiful way

Had my meds, 75mg Delta 8, and on my third double of bourbon.

I am done for the night...one more and I might be catatonic

My arse is macramed to my mattress now

If you spelled that word correctly then I never knew how to spell it properly.
