You're so badass, do you only eat bacon and oil you beard as well ?
Yes, I have a small atomizer bottle filled with absinthe for just this purpose. Two spritzes inside the glass is perfect.houag80 said:
Do you atomize the rim with absinthe? Damn good.
Johnny Walker Blue is aged much longer and very smooth. At $200 a bottle, it better be.TTUArmy said:hawg,aggiehawg said:

Why Johnnie Walker Blue?
As a rule, I don't touch anything with a Johnnie Walker label. The red label is gasoline. I'm not a scotch snob or anything but, I like what I like. However, since you said you would spring for a blue bottle, may I assume that you would recommend this particular scotch?
Just as a point of reference, my go to is Glenfiddich Solera 15.
Blue is only marginally better than the gold.aggiehawg said:Johnny Walker Blue is aged much longer and very smooth. At $200 a bottle, it better be.TTUArmy said:hawg,aggiehawg said:

You forget I live in the boonies in a partially dry county. My not-so-"local" liquor stores are fairly limited in selections. I was actually amazed they even carried JW Blue. I only go into a city with better selections about twice a year at this point.BusterAg said:Blue is only marginally better than the gold.aggiehawg said:Johnny Walker Blue is aged much longer and very smooth.

And blue isn't blended and then aged. It is blended from aged whiskeys.
It's pretty good. For $200, you can do better. The Gold and Green are pretty good for the price.
Would much rather have a dram of Lagavulin, though.

What spiced rum do you use? Don't want to overpower the mint, you know.ABATTBQ11 said:
I make my mojitos with spiced rum.
3oz spiced rum
1oz simple syrup
8-10 mint leaves
3-4 lime slices
2 splashes bitters
Small slice of ginger (optional)
Splash of club soda or ginger ale
In a high ball glass, muddle mint and ginger in simple syrup. Add lime slices and gently muddle on top of mint/ginger. Fill glass with crushed ice. Add rum and bitters. Top off with club soda/ginger ale. Mix and enjoy.
