This year I decided to do that with some J&B whiskey. I figured if I hated it I’d just dilute it with some carbonated water and lemon, but I found myself liking it. I feel like I’ve entered into a whole new world now that I’ve acquired the taste. Just make sure you don't drink anything aged more than 12 years or you'll never win a SuperBowl*! *Unless you're drinking with Mahomes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did buy some Ron Burgundy scotch as a joke one time. That was horrible. I brought it to a party. Eventually a few people were drunk enough that they didn't care, and drank it. This is on the short list of worst beverages I have tasted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is on the short list of worst beverages I have tasted. Not even a little bit. Tried it a couple times and it was almost the worst thing I've tasted.

"It's an acquired taste."... That is one of my all time least favorite sayings. I'm certain I've said this here before but you know what's not an "acquired taste"? Stuff that actually tastes good.

This is too sweet maybe adding a little bit of burnt moss to the flavor of anything is almost always the right way to go. s/ Edited May 14 by wgbeethree 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like mezcal, if smokiness is not your thing you can find much cleaner examples but you might have to look around a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
