    Kept smashing glasses when doing the dishes, but jars seem more sturdy. I've a hotdog one, a gherkin one and a pickled egg one. The latter is 510ml of greatness.

    I've got this beast waiting in the cupboard but I can't get the bloody lid off.

    The only thing I'm finding lately, which I presume is a side effect of medication I'm on, is that all drinks taste flat now. I don't know if I'm more disappointed in the beer or the Pepsi

    Just about to have some Jim Beam Red Stag with the last bit of coke I have left.

    In non-alcoholic drink news, I've been drinking oceans of Volvic Juiced. They're on a long term 2 for £1.60 at Boots (one is £1.50), so I've been all over that. The Lemon one is a staple, and the Orange & Apple are pretty solid too.

    A strange metal cup of incredibly weak Korean tea. Not good.

    In other news however, I haven't drunk anything alcoholic for around 3 months. It's boring and I can't understand the people who finish work and need to have a beer.

    It's utter shit. There's a reason why only Spanish kids and you drink it. Only thing worse mentioned in this thread is Pepsi Max that is simply the worst fizzy drink there is. Back to red wine though. I opened a bottle I got a a present quite a while a go yesterday and the wine is from Tenerife (not the most common wine area in Spain) as I always ask my dad to bring me something local food stuff or wine when he travels and he usually comes through with something decent. This wine was weird though as it needed to be open for a few hours before it actually came any good (I know wines should be opened in advance, but the difference between one and two hours was astonishing here).

    So, in short, I was drinking a red wine from Tenerife and since it's now morning I'm on Berocca and coffee.

    Don't know why tinypic keeps landscaping my photos

    Only pissing about the wine. Most I've drank from a shop have been rank but I've had a few nice ones on the hols. Friend used to bring me an epic one back from Portugal every year too. Think it was homemade.

    They were doing those for 75p in Tesco, so I bought about ten. The orange is comfortably the best.

    I had a punk IPA before which is absolutely great. Nice fruity taste to it without having that overly fermented taste.

    Now a glass of white to go with a fish curry.

    In the 3 months or so i've lived in Scotland, I've gone from hating whiskey to really enjoying it. Probably helps that I'm being introduced to stuff other than shit house whiskey and coke. Particularly enjoying the peaty stuff, and got myself a bottle of Laphroaig the other day. Lovely stuff.

    You should go to 'The Whisky Shop' and try some of the smaller batch stuff they keep barrelled in store. It's quite expensive, about thirty quid for a half litre I think, but generally very good.

    £30 for 500ml of a good whiskey wouldn't be too bad at all as it would last a while. If you're beating it into you with coke in it then you might as well get tesco value.

    Cheers, I will do. Anything in particular you'd recommend? I wouldn't dream of putting coke in this shit.

    They all have distinctive features depending on where they come from. Go for a taster sesh, find one you like and invest (15 yr+). It's too expensive to try different types per bottle.

    I'd like a new bottle of whiskey to add to my collection. I've got a 12 year Glenfiddich, a vintage cask Glenfiddich and a standard Glenlivet (assume it's a 12 year).

    I haven't had much whisky since a couple of years ago, when the girlfriend's dad and I powered through a bottle and a half of Macallan on Christmas Eve and I could still barely eat on Boxing Day...

    I have taken a love to bourbon-based Old Fashioneds though.

    Yep, a well made old fashioned is my favourite tipple. Shame it's hit and miss the one you buy is any good.

    You can't go too far wrong if you use good bourbon and don't fuck around by adding soda.

    The barrelled stuff comes in bottles with standardised labels and only the name of the distillery written on it, none of which I remember, but the staff in that shop are uniformly excellent. Tell them what sort of stuff you like and they'll machine gun about ten recommendations at you, all of which will be perfect.

    I still have the dregs of a bottle of fifteen year Glendronach that I've enjoyed in a big way recently, so I'd recommend that. It's sherry cask, so it's a bit different, and it's fifty quid a bottle, but it's absolutely brilliant.

    As well as some bottled beers I'd got in Good Spirits Co. (Tsar by Buxton brewery is so good) my brother-in-law then cracked the Lagavulin 16 we'd got him for his birthday.

    Ron Swanson's not wrong.

    Those were all a little strong for me last night, ended up too drunk and with too much of a hangover. I really need to stick to 4% stuff as opposed to the 6/7%.

    Pepsi Max Cherry is my soft drink of choice, after full sugar Irn Bru, but I never drink full sugar drinks these days so Pepsi Max Cherry it is.

    Finished this last night -


    Jerez cask whiskeys and beers truly are special.

    I don't much beyond like it/don't like it when I taste whisky. I'm sure I read that there is a logical reason for it but I did lol when buying a whisky for my dad and one of the comments on the website mentioned sticking plasters.

    Chocolate milk. It's bloody great. Also dissolvable vitamin C, apparently good after exercise.

    A rather delicious Sumatran espresso the hipster coffee shop down the road roasts on premises. Home ground and brewed of course.
