Never heard of it before. LCBO just imported a batch.

Matty, what makes Wild Turkey 101 better than 80? (aside from being stronger) Never knew they had 80. Used to do shooters of 101 while driving around in high school.

Never mind the proof - the 80 and 101 are completely different products. The 80 is probably aged the minimum legal amount of time. It is very light in color and it tastes extremely young - nothing but sweet corn in your mouth. It is nasty even when mixed with Coke.

Damn shame I can't get 101 here cause it's excellent. It would most likely be my main pour, assuming it was priced the same way it is in the States (shit is cheap).
 
any swimming at the cottage?

I need a laid back few days at somewhere away from people
 
Georgian Bay was pretty cold last month in the middle of a heat wave, but yes, we are bringing our swimming trunks in case it's manageable.

Fiveteamer is bringing his fishing rod.

Are you in a low lying area that is susceptible to flooding Jello? Was thinking about you and Mr. Monkey when I saw the track. Be safe kid.
 
:dunno: The LCBO is a govt-owned monopoly and they just don't import the 101 for whatever reason.

Matty, have you still been receiving promotional items from Maker's Mark?
 
I got 46 stickers from Makers.

I'm not putting stickers on napkins at bars.

Common.


Jello, excellent choice considering you're most likely going to die this weekend.

Go out with the good stuff buddy
 
We just found a new bottling at a liquor store we don't normally patronize. Four Roses Small Batch. Initial tasting impressions are very very favorable. Oh my.

We would love to have a small glass but we feel like were going to throw up (and we haven't had any alcohol)

Unreal.
