WHISK(E)Y. The reason I wake up every afternoon.

The only thing that chases whiskey is more whiskey.

"Some of its magic, and some of its tragic, but I had a good life all the way" (J. Buffett)

There is no such thing as bad whisky - some are just better than others.

For bourbon and single malt whisky a rating of 2.5 means “average”. Anything rated higher is worth a taste, anything rated 4 or more is recommended. For blended scotch the average is 1.5, and anything rated 3 or more is recommended.
