    Re: Hello from Seattle

    I was drinking my whiskey like I'd drink most anything else - tip it back and swallow. Then I started taking smaller sips, letting it sit in the middle of my tongue and just wash over the sides...

    Re: Hello from Seattle

    Welcome johan851! I used to find EWBL a bit rough as well, although in my case I learned that was due in part to the way I was drinking it. I've also found that my tastes change over time - so if...

    Re: Hello from Atlanta, Georgia.

    Re: Newb from North Florida

    Welcome aboard! In hindsight, I would recommend looking for 50ml, 200ml bottles of things you haven't tried and are interested in. A lot of stuff won't be available like that, but some stores carry...
