One of the benefits of being upgraded to first class on a flight is free drinks. Of course, free isn’t necessarily good. Between choices of red wine, white wine, Jack D, and this, I went with this. Should’ve gone with red wine
This is sweet. Like artificial sugar sweet. It’s unidimensional, probably meant to add extra sweetness in cocktails? Definitely not meant to have neat as I’m having it. Quick finish. That quick finish might be the only positive, since that sweetness disappears rapidly.
Probably a 1 Star, upgraded a bit because...hell, things taste a bit better in first class.
Lesson learned: when upgraded on a flight, go for the red wine.

@LeeEvolved LOL! No to the mobility scooter - I bags being the Holmesian character who stays in the apartment :-) There should also be a magical elixir that transmutes us into our younger selves in time of peril - we could call it the water of life ;-)
Would have flipped a coin for the Jack, but that's just me, wine is for trying to upgrade dinner.
@LeeEvolved you have a non compete clause in your contract. Dapper Drams has exclusive rights to your likeness and any ideas, concepts, characters, or free time you may possess.
@LeeEvolved - Fear not! Cecil B. DeMille, Jr. is sure to film you into stardom. :)
@Soba45 - as a younger man, I had drive and motivation to do those things. Now, I just want a good whisky while sitting in a leather recliner- and for those damn kids stay off my lawn. Lol
@LeeEvolved I think you should start your own production company / label. Movies and whiskey...just got to think of a suitable label.... And yes I think your idea is a good first starter from what I've seen on Netflix they buy just about anything these days...we just need to tell them Anazon and Disney are offering us loads....haha :-)
@PBMichiganWolverine - ugh, Tiffany. A poor man’s Debbie Gibson.
@LeeEvolved I’d pay good money to see what data Amazon has collected on you ever since you started DD. You’ll find targeted ads like “ since you bought this 80s wig, you’d probably be interested in this album by Tiffany, or Menudo “. 😀
@PBMichiganWolverine - that gives me an idea: @Rick_M @Soba45 @cascode, you and I should sell a series to Netflix. We’ll call it FINER THINGS. It’s about 5 old people trying to escape an evil, parallel universe called “the bottom shelf”, while running from and destroying a monster called the Diageo-gorgon. Instead of riding our bicycles around looking for clues, we can use mobility scooters and falsely obtained handicapped parking passes. I think it could do quite well. Oh crap, I just realized that if @Generously_Paul sees this he’s gonna make me order more wigs, hats and 80’s clothes from Amazon for a Dapper Drams spin-off. Delete comment. Delete delete.
@Slainte-Mhath @LeeEvolved and the automatic aversion to anything except top shelf, which is the common temporary affliction one has when he/she is generally in economy class but through sheer luck gets bumped to first class 😊
@PBMichiganWolverine I second @LeeEvolved comment, Bufface trace is usually quite decent. It is, however, proven that your sense of smell and taste is different when sitting in an airplane.
@LeeEvolved it could be just really stale bottles. Out of the 10 people in 1st class, only one ordered bourbon. Rest were white or red wine. And I’m guessing at most one or two out of economy. So...the turnover is just poor.
Hmm, that’s odd. BT is usually quite solid. Maybe those mini bottles are old or the pressurized air does something to them? I’m at a loss, BT shouldn’t be that bad lol
@PBMichiganWolverine - I’ve had that airline BT, but I had to pay for mine. 3 stars. :)
