Ron Burgundy "Great Odin's Raven" Special Reserve

Blended — Scotland

Reviewed March 10, 2018 (edited April 2, 2019)
5.0
5.0 out of 5 stars
Hey Distiller Gang, WKVN Channel 4’s Sports reporter Champ Kind here! My Channel 4 News lead anchorman, and real life best friend Ron Burgundy, left an opened bottle of his scotch- Great Odin’s Raven on the news desk and I knew he wouldn’t mind if I had a splash, whammy. It says it’s a blended scotch, kinda like how him and me are a blend of two halves of the same whole. He’s the Yin to my Yang, in a completely plutonic way of course, and I have to say it’s a delicious scotch indeed. Now, I usually go for a shot of Wild Turkey, some chicken wings and a pint of MGD while watching football with the guys, but I could see adding this to the rotation on a regular basis. The smell reminds me of the time me and Ron went over to the Channel 9 Evening News team’s turf looking for a fight. Instead, we found Wes Mantooth’s mother, Dorothy Mantooth, wondering around the park. Me, being the constipated gentleman I am, asked her to accompany me down to the local lobster house where we had a delicious seafood dinner. I took her home, read her a bedtime story about how Joe Namath was the greatest NFL QB to ever lace up a pair of cleats, and bid her Au River- that’s France for goodnight. She slipped her phone number into my blazer pocket, but I hope she realizes that I will never call her. Wee-eww-wee-eew!! Get this crazy lingo out of my brain! I had to get all that fufu French talk out of my head so I chugged the last of Ron’s scotch. I wish I could remember the taste, but I drank so much of it that I blacked out. When I woke up I was clinging naked to the hood of some Russian lady’s station wagon as she drove down Market St towards Embarcadero Park. I don’t know what she was screaming at me through the windshield- all I heard was something about diversity, and said “Listen lady, what the hell does this have to do with that old, old wooden ship that Ron was talking about that day at the station?! Drop me off there so I can read some sports scores!”. She just kept on driving until I flung myself off 2 blocks from WKVN. The sad part is that the last of Ron’s scotch hit the curb and bounced back into my hands, only to shatter when I put it to my lips again, whammy. Bottom line, Great Odin’s Raven is the best scotch money can buy, and if I had it my way Ron and I would get an apartment together where we could drink it all day and night. Go buy it or I will smash your face through a car windshield!

    She is a voodoo woman that has everyone fooled. I’ve been working with Colonel Sanders for years to try and expose her.

    Oh yes @LeeEvolved, @Champ_Kind is quite the character. Like the time we were at our monthly pancake breakfast, and instead of syrup he poured sweet Jamaican rum all over @BrickTamland pancakes. I’ve never seen one man eat so many pancakes and then stumble around and mumbling about how Aunt Jemima had cast a spell on him. It was truly humorous to observe.

    Now the Champ Kind character is in on this? Lol, this is gold star fun!

    I like all the different flavors of crayon.

    Great Damian’s beard! @BrickTamland - did you just say that you eat crayons? That cannot be good for you. Did someone shoot you in the back of the head with a BB gun when you were a child @Wes-Mantooth? You are so angry. So angry!

    @Brian_Fantana I was laying down in the back seat eating an orange crayon in found on the floor while she drove me to work. I was telling her all about those old diversity ships

    Dammit @Champ_Kind I wanted to try some of @RealRonBurgundy special scotch. How am I going to add to the mystique that is The Bry-Man if I can’t have a taste of a rare whisky named after San Diego’s most popular anchorman? @BrickTamland how did you know that Champ was on your mom’s car?

    Uh oh @Champ_Kind I’m pretty sure that crazy Russian lady that gave you a ride to work was my mom

    Oh boy, here we go again. I’ve got to get my hands on this Great Odin’s Raven if I can

    Great. Here we go again @Champ_Kind - another story from you about dating my mother, Dorothy Mantooth. It’s funny how she never mentions you! Ever. That’s because she’s a saintly woman, Champ Kind. You and @RealRonBurgundy know better than to come on Channel 9’s turf. The next time you try that I’ll shove those flawed ratings where the sun don’t shine and give your whole news team a serious beat down!

    @Baxter_Dog - I realize you’re mad that I blamed you for taking my scotch. I’m sorry. Yes, you are my handsome little man. The fact you created an account here astonishes me. You are like a ninja- a little, brown ninja covered in fur.

    @Baxter_Dog - how did you get here? No. No, I’m not mad. I’m kind of impressed actually. That’s amazing. How did you create an account on Distiller? You ate some more cheese, too? Okay.

    Well, @Champ_Kind - while I’m happy you enjoyed my scotch I’m hurt and pissed, mostly hurt that you took the last of my bottle of Great Odin’s Raven. At first I thought that maybe Baxter had taken it, but he said he didn’t. Also, I think you meant to use the word consummate, not constipated. There’s a significant difference between those two words.
