With Whiskey neat

Post by Merchant Seaman »

or any other liquor neat, do you slam, or sip?
I tend to sip, savor and enjoy, but I have slammed.

I usually sip, especially when it's a liquor and brand I really like the taste of. I always sip bourbon, for example; vodka and tequila, they go down the hatch fast.

I sip my whiskey neat. Though I do drink faster when I'm annoyed. Or in a really good mood.

Tend to sip a good single malt, bourbon or aged rum.
Vodka-Sambuca-Tequilla (et al ) are for slamming down, preferably with a beer on the side.

Depends on the booze. Some are for sipping others are for shooting and mixing. All are on the rocks though. Not much of a neat drinker except for my first taste of something new.

I tend to sip & savor good whisky until the tipping point of pouring 2oz goes to half-glass

For whatever reason, I never sip tequila or vodka -- slam em, every time.

whiskey, gin or rum, for me, are sippers. It's weird. Even if it's bottom shelf, I'll still sip.

I don't know why. Maybe it makes me feel high-class and not like the guy who, a decade ago, drunkenly came to, on all fours, in the middle of D.C. and in broad daylight, pissing through my un-zipped fly.


Yup

High class like a motherfucker.

You will never hear anyone say "damn, that’s a good sipping vodka". Even the most expensive (not necessarily best) vodka is always shots. Always.

Good whiskey is something you sip after dinner. Liquid dessert. Do you shovel down a rich chocolate cake? Or do you enjoy every bite?

So I drank tequila at a Bobby Flay property...Mesa, I think.

They would shake it briefly over ice, strain into chilled thistle glasses and you could smell it and taste it change up as it warmed up....

Became a fan of sipping tequilas there and then.
DRINK!
