Dos Equis with tacos...

It's Margarita Friday again. Que bueno! (I'm glad weeks aren't longer than they are.)

Neat in both tonight's cases, but the Laphroaig really improves with just a tiny drop of water, doesn't it....

Definitely. Neat, the smoke overpowers everything but the iodine finish. A splash of water changes the game completely and brings everything out a whole variety of flavours. I'm looking for ward to getting my hands on Ardbeg's Uigeadail or Corryvrecken for comparison.

And who would dare argue with George Cowley?

But, as my Grandfather used to say, we live in Australia so we are allowed ice when it's hot. Besides, as the ice melts you get to see how the whisky changes with concentration.

I reckon Patron is massively over rated. Don't get me wrong, it is good, but there are as good or better tequilas out there for a lot less money and without all the hype. Come margarita season I'll go looking and see if I can find Avion out here in Aus

What do you think of the Quinta? It's on my list, but well down, based on a couple of reviews and Jim Murray's comments.

Tennessee football....Tennessee Whiskey.

Jack Daniel's and the Vols game. Oh yeah!

2009 Rusden "Full Circle" Mataro - straight 100% Mataro with some chorizo and beans I whipped up.

**Mad Man** · 09-07-2012, 06:08 AM

Russian Standard with grapefruit juice.

**djh** · 09-07-2012, 12:03 PM

A large mug of black tea with two slices of lemon in it. I am considering a tumbler of Laphroaig to go with it...... the other choice is to go to bed.

Sorry, but I have a filthy cold.

2x Lapin Kulta Export

Bonus points for anyone who can guess (read no web-search) the country of origin of this run of the mill beer.

**shavious** · 09-07-2012, 12:50 PM

Looks like I'll be starting off with some gin cocktails (the name escapes me but you add Sprite and a lemon slice to the gin) made with Tanqueray. The night will likely transition into some Balvenie 14 yr Caribbean Cask with a nice cigar though. Gonna be a good night!

**Jeff C** · 09-07-2012, 06:52 PM

Stiegl Pils, nice Austrian brew.

**InfernoOrangeSS** · 09-07-2012, 08:55 PM

I am enjoying some Samuel Adams Whitewater IPA. A very decent IPA. If only I could find someone out west who would send me some Stone IPA...my favorite.
