November 30, 2018 (edited March 10, 2019)
My first job out of college was at a big pharma. I was in their R&D rotation program, where we spent 6 months rotating around various facilities. My first six months: I got up every morning, dressed in head to toe overalls and a face mask, and went into a monkey house. Not a monkey house as a place where they joke around. A real monkey house, with rhesus monkeys in cages. While my lab partner held a monkey, wrestling him to prevent it from tearing our eye sockets out, I had to fondle his private parts to make him urinate in a test tube. Times like those you seriously start thinking which f**ked up life choice you made to get you in that position. Where did you take that left turn when you should’ve taken a right? Having a pour of this tonight, I ask a similar question. What the hell possessed me to buy a bottle of this? Not a pour. Not a sip. But a while f**king bottle. Was it because it’s available in Colorado only, and I figured I need to bring back a souvenir from my recent Denver trip? Maybe it was the lure of thinking “ hey, I like honey, so I’m damn f**king sure I’ll like this”. Either way, it was a fallacy in a serious life choice decision making that led me into trying something that smells like a sugared covered plastic, and taste like a gym sock dipped in honey.

@SolanaRoots yeah you’re right. I’ve had two of theirs—the sherry one, and the regular one. Both were very good
@PBMichiganWolverine Deerhammer is another solid Colo bottle
@leer thanks! Yeah—-I end up going to Denver (Westminster technically) every few weeks. Stranahan’s by far takes the top prize there. Hopefully I’m going to try to score their Snowflake one day
Colorado has much better options than this! Being in Denver I have a bar full of decent pours. Love your commentaries tho...keep up the good work.
@PBMichiganWolverine - good thing you didn’t try that with a female monkey. We’d be referring to you as the blind scientist. :)
@Generously_Paul no, no...OSHA violation. I’d be filling out a stack of paperwork...
@Generously_Paul that's where I thought it was going too. @PBMichiganWolverine haha, and renting Gorillas in the Mist for your kinky kicks.
I’m just glad the story didn’t end with you having monkey piss in your mouth and saying it was almost as bad as this whiskey
@1901 LOL. I feel as if I was one other bad life choice decision away from those monkey fondling days into becoming something seriously weird involving whips and chains
Who among us hasn't fondled a monkey's privates. No judgement here! Nice story 🐒
@PBMichiganWolverine loved the story. And I thought my job selling vacuum cleaners out of college was bad.
@Soba45 dude, back then...if YouTube existed, I’d be a viral hit. The Monkey Molesting Scientist
@Scott_E nah...barely anything. But I paid my one Friday night allocated for whiskey.
Haha, good review. The things we do for a $ when young :-)
@PBMichiganWolverine Hopefully you didn’t pay too much. I would guess you were trying to capture or find the diamond in the rough from distant lands?
