Ps I fully appreciate your signature!

I’ve got a bit or two of Native American in me and it didn’t used to be that way but now any sort of “fire water” in excess and I’m like freaking Scarface running around. This is why I limit myself to a liquor drink a month.

P.s. - signature = those bastards!! What do we have that’s better though? Google!? Bahahahahahahaha, I couldn’t even type that without snickering.

Their XR used to be good (red box not blue).
They had one that was called special reserve or something that was decent as well and well under $100.
I haven’t bought any in a few years, maybe it’s time to have another look?
(I actually use the bags to store all my old cork caps.)

Drink whatever you like! I have had plenty of high dollar booze and drink Bulleit Rye when it gets hot. Why? Because that’s how I want my rye to taste. I even put an ice cube in there for a min! The horror…

I'ver used Crown Royal in my world famous whiskey sour's for years. I've recently replaced it with another Canadian whiskey, Pendleton. Give that a try.

J.W. Black in my [grandfather's glass] flask for me. It's been in the cupboard, tightly closed with a new cap and fresh cork seal, since about 2015. True 'snakebite' medicine.

I loved Crown in the 70's though I could rarely afford it. If someone else was buying, so be it. For my own house, it was Lord Calvert Canadian; which I liked just as much.

One thing (of many) that I don't turn my nose at - your alcohol or drink of choice. What a thing to be snobby about, in my opinion.

Whether it's two-buck chuck or the most expensive bottle out there - as long as you like it, it's good!
