Neighbor had his 70th. He wanted to have a drink on his porch. He brought both out.
The Pig was downright horrible. It tasted like swamp mud
The other wasn’t bad at all.

They have this rum down here, I'm sure it comes from Venezuela as much as it pains me to say it. I want to say it is Pompero?? Like slap your momma good.

"Price doesn't make booze good."
We had a tequila taste test and the $500 jug was horrible. The cheaper the piss swill, the better it was. Same with a few wine tastings I went to in California. That has been my experience with most things in life, TO A POINT.
I'm beginning to realize a great many "wealthy" people simply have lousy taste. Slap a high price on a dog turd packaged in a gold wrapper and some rich eccentric will tout its taste quality and the rest will follow...

Trick question. Whistlepig is already empty.
But the answer is always Basil Hayden.

Basil Hayden is good stuff. Probably about the only high rye bourbon I really like.
They also make a "Dark Rye" that I just did not like. Gave it to my son in law.

The show featured an expensive restaurant in New York City. The plate of food was $1500.00 It was a rhinoceros rectum. I wouldn't eat one of those if they paid me $1500.00 Yep ... some folk just don't know how to spend money.
