why

Pairs well with my Chinese cartoons

>he fell for the weeb whiskey
>"DUDE YAMAZAKI HIGHBALL"

>>6747260
Japan makes some of the best whiskey

Of course

Unironically gonna buy a Nintendo switch

>>6747452
VI$VIM, damn

>>6747386

I have enjoyed both the Toki and Hibiki. Japanese whisky is good.

>>6747205
Found one in my local abc for $60 and a hibiki 17 for $90 and they both taste way too sweet.

It's a nice decoration at least.

>>6747519

Haven't played video games in over a decade so I've got a couple of uestions:
1. What's so special about the switch? It just seems gimmicky (from my brief research)
2. Why do nu male soy boys love it so much?

>>6747629
its special because it has the new zelda
other than that nothing
i bought mine, beat zelda, then sold it on craigslist

I bought this last weekend when my folio hit £500k

>>6747205
Even more gains.

>>6747420
this is true but damn very much over-priced. give me a something simple like balvenie and you have saved yourself so much and still have a VERY quality product.

japanese whiskey is watered down and disappointing.

>>6747260

Japanese whisky is actually very similar to scotch since they try to emulate the same growing conditions and distillation process as Scotland.

>>6747260
I never tried Japanese whisky, I wonder how it tastes like.
>>6747205
I've been treating myself to beer and dates. Idk, ever since crypto I felt like I don't give a fuck about women, now I'm dating one. Shit is surreal.

Hibiki 21 if you can find it, will blow ur socks off

>>6747671

See the last zelda I played was Twilight Princess.

I want to get up to date because they were my favourites but I struggle to justify spending so much money and time on one

>>6747260
Normally I'd be saying this but then I tried op and hibiki harmony and fuck me Japan deserves the name

>>6748254

This.

To the outsider someone on 4chan raving about the superiority of Japanese whisky seems some anime fandom level shit.

But it is honestly superb. No surprise that the country is winning award after award for what they're producing.

>>6747970
>How it tastes like
Become literate you faggot

>>6747205
No I'm just in this to make the numbers bigger not to buy things.

>>6747970
>I've been treating myself to beer and dates.

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well.

>ever since crypto I felt like I don't give a fuck about women, now I'm dating one.

Damnit anon!

>>6748806
hell yeah wont stop until the 3rd comma drops

>>6748754
You understood what I said, dunno why you're being a faggot

>>6747205
hey pewdiepie

>>6749280

I fucking wish. I'd throw all my wealth into LINK.

>>6747205
Im not really. I finished off my cigars today though after my ICO went BOOM! I have to get in on another but I am not touching those investments until they are hopefully HUGE by the end of the year. Ive just got to suck it up and keep working my shitty job until then.

>>6747205
I had that same whiskey but smaller bottle. The Japanese airport security tried confiscating it so I just opened it and started chugging. They tried not to laugh.

>>6747205
I treated myself before gains, gonna keep treating myself through the gains

>>6747519

Fukano..Rice Whisky.. I think it is excellent. Really mild for when you dont want to hammer down a cask strength

>>6749565
If it's 12 years aged what are they aging it in if not a cask?

Bought Hibki some time ago, still have half a bottle. At first I didn't like it, but after a little while I started enjoying it. Recently got some 12 yo Dalmore, pretty good as well.

>>6747260
Japs know their alcohol. They make some damn good whiskey.

I haven't bought shit even though I've been really wanting to.. I feel like I should because ive been in the game for a year (seem to fuck up a lot though) and might be too detached from this money. I thought it might be a good idea to but at the same time I know it would be something dumb I wouldn't use like a Nintendo switch. A nice dobsonian telescope and a good DSLR camera for astrophotography would be cool but I wanna make more money and have a place by myself before I drop a grand and a half on that stuff. Going to Europe would be nice. The option of being able to do nice things is probably the best reward

>>6749368
>It's another episode of "pewdiepie pretending to not be pewdiepie" again.

I'm onto you, use BAT for your ad income and make a video about it.

Guys what's a good Japanese whiskey to start with? Pic related? I've only drank suntory highballs when I visited Japan a while ago

>>6747260
Yamazaki 10 year and 12 year are both excellent single malts, pleb.

>>6747260
Great whiskey.

>>6747205
Very nice. My personal fav is hibiki 12

>>6749644
Its from a cask. I am talking about the proof of a cask strength. This is like 82 proof v 121 or so.

any jap whisky you can get with an age statement is preferred. They have been getting away from that recently.

i am samefagging like a motherfucker. Recently i built a bar at home. Stocked up with some of my crypto gains. 2x JWB, 15yr pappy, 12 yr pappy, Whistlepig boss hog, wp rye, balvenie rum cask, Jeffersons presidential select, blantons, Aberlour Abundah, EH Taylor cask, Peg leg porker 9 and 12, and a bunch more. Feel like an old man.

>spending money on things that don't offer a ROI

it's like you want to be poor

Spent them on index funds.

>>6751852
paid 75 and 80 for the pappy. Sells for 800 and 1200 all day. Paid 65 for presidential select. Sells for 1800. even my alcoholism makes me gains.

Pistachios. Normies can't afford pistachios.

>>6751799
I currently have Royal Salute 21 yo, Dalmore 12 yo, Hibiki, Makers Mark 46, Chivas Regal 18 yo and a 20 yo Spanish cognac.

Plan on getting Glenlivet, Glenfiddich 18, Glenfiddich 21 Year Old Gran Reserva and Highland Park Valkyrie

>>6747205
I paid off my student loans and bought a GTX 1080. Fuck yeah!

>>6752133
How is the royal salute?

>>6747205
I buy link and oatmeal.

>>6747205
Nice choice desu. I bought a texas deadlift bar. Only small rewards here and there...in this game to become financially independent EOY 2019.

>>6752223
To be honest it's one of my favorites so far. It's really smooth. When I finish it I will probably get another one down the road. Even though in my country it's like 10-15% more expensive then when I got it from the states. It's a sub brand of Chivas Regal it's nothing like it.
Also the bottles and the styling is awesome.

>>6747205
having a glass of this bad boy right now

>>6747205

Got my eye on a bottle of Yamazaki 18yr. Waiting for Link to get a bit higher. Get yourself some Weller 12yr if you want a damn fine bourbon.

>2018
>discussing expensive whiskey on 4chan
>what the fuck

>>6747205
bought me an acne studios parka jacket at 50% off, very /comfy/ for this cold weather

>>6747205
>hitting legal drinking age around here
>planning to get myself whiskey for the occasion
Is this any good? Hundred bucks doesnt seem that much but neither that low either.

Would you recommend it OP?

>>6751799
I wish I had the self-control to have a home bar.

>>6751076
that's a really good one to get started, also good price

i bought a nice coffee table on overstock and around $1500 of amazon gift cards for day to day shopping

>>6752821
That would imply i do!
I get pretty wasted most nights. I recommend peg leg porker btw. It flew under my radar for a while. It is Dickel with a little mesquite.

>>6752393
Good to know. I never came across it but have heard of it.

>>6747205

Thanks Sergey

Got a 40 of old English and the complete series of Reboot on DVD.

Thanks anon, Il check those out. Does anyone know how Japanese whiskey differs from western ones though?

>>6754058
pleb whiskey

>>6752604
You should visit /CK/

>sonyggers on /biz/
why

>>6747600
Weebs think anything from Japan is good.

>>6754540
/ck/ is full of poorfag nocoiners tho

>>6754655
So? Do you expect to learn how to make Bitcoin sausage or Ethereum Enchiladas?

>>6753348
just got the distiller's edition of Lag 16 and it's fantastic.

>>6754436

whisky*, it's not Irish.

>>6754655

They still have great advice there.

>>6747629
Last gen console graphics in portable format, but with current gen gameplay. Everyone's fucking themselves silly over it though. Games are plenty fun.

>>6754690
>>6754860
they value their time cooking food
we value our time making money

we're far superior to them

>>6754943
wew lad stop jerking off to yourself

>>6753973
That isn’t a rich mans car, that is just a “I’m doing quite good right now car”.
Also I like cars so why the fuck wouldn’t I buy one iv always had my eye on.

>>6747260

you dumb neckbeard put down the fucking bud light

>>6754965
you haven't experienced the type of niggers on /ck/ i see

they are fucking poorfag foodNEETs who are often not white

>>6755180
nothing wrong with /ck/ except fast food posters and /sippers/

>>6755336
you don't seem to understand how the four chins work lad

let's break it down

there's a strong consortium of subhuman NEETs with no capital and no income on this website

they struggle to feel superior to the dreaded normies so they latch onto some field and try to act elitist

on /a/ it's anime
on /g/ it's muhhhhh open sores software
on /ck/ it's wasting 23852835 hours cooking

their time is worthless because they are worthless
and they are insanely assblasted when you remind them that your time is worthwhile

this was a good one.

>>6755456
I now know for a fact you're under 18

>>6747629
Flexible in design and functionality, gets good games. Will get LOTS of good games, i'm impressed their line-up is already this good after not even a year.

>>6747205

you don't seem to understan dthat the entire purpose of this website is to make people mad, shitpost and meme

do you think this website is for srs business discussion about escapism or something

>>6747205
>I hope you are treating yourself with your gains /biz/
I am, anon.

>>6755561

the fucked up thing lad, is you can greatly improve yourself here, if you follow what a lot of the boards preach

also become a racist which is quite funny

>>6747717
did you buy it finally?

>>6754436
Probably
This is my second whisky, the first was OP‘s. What should I get next

>>6755520
you try the caribbean cask ever? I like the touch of rum. I have the double wood 12 yr but havent tried it.

>>6755622
I can improve myself while telling the denizens of the boards to kill themselves painfully all while reminding them of how far superior my board and i am to them

>>6755643

never tried the caribbean cask, will keep an eye out next time I'm at the liquor store. double wood is pretty solid, I'm a big fan of their 17 yr

>>6747205

This has been my only splurge. It’s subtle and about 95% of peole wont ever notice it unless they were really looking.

Just a little treat for myself.

>>6747205

Enjoying the southern hemisphere summer with my crypto gains. Hot girls everywhere in this beach town if I only weren't ugly and autistic...

>>6755815
Got the doublewood as a gift. Waiting to crack it. The caribbean cask is pretty light. Good for an everyday drinker. Not really a treat though. Had a macallan 18 recently. I enjoyed that for special occasions (aka weekend nights)

>>6755491
Good choice

>>6747671
>>6748107

This z*lda crap is just embarrassing at this point. Holy crap. Back to /r/leddit, the both of you.

Pleb

>>6756117
I have a friend who manages a liquor store in NYC. The owner pushed this on me, i was glad. They also all recommended Mic Drop. I didnt like it at all. For $100 it was really underwhelming. Its sitting in a decanter for mixing drinks now. I felt like i got shilled Mooncoin.

>>6755618
he's a faggot and so are you

The triple threat

>>6747205

>>6747205
theres no benefit to aging whiskey and anyone who tells you otherwise is retarded and trying to take your money

i am anon

>>6747205
Lobe that shit but Japan needs to peat their shit up, I like my scotch to taste like burned worm food

>>6747629
Coz. Nintendo remembers games should be fun to play, not just have crazy graphics it's supposed to be an escape from reality not look like it.

I wish, still a long way away from pulling out bits for luxuries and treats like this. Hopefully next year. Considering that you're comfortable doing this kind of thing I assume you must have made it, in which case congrats, always nice to see a fellow autist living the good life.

>>6747899
highland scotch.. not Islay which is too bad coz it's the best

>>6756735
wat is that

>>6756726
there is. whiskey is clear until it goes into barrels.

it doesnt age in the bottle though so that point is true.

>>6747260
Japan's culture really values craftsmanship and mastery, leading to one of the best artisan markets in the world.
They also fetishize American culture.
These 2 things together mean that Japanese whiskey is probably really good.

havn't spent anything. i doubt i'll be cashing anything out until crypto pays off my house

>>6747205
I remember when this first came out in the US and it was only like $50 then out of nowhere it doubled in price because of demand.

>>6756966

>>6755620

Nice watch anon, what made you choose it?

>>6747970
>I don't give a fuck about women
You discovered the key, senpai.

>>6747629
Nu males love it because it's the most casual console out there right now. Being a "nerd" is in vogue right now, so they're obligated to play games, but most of them will only buy the fucking thing to play Zelda and watch cuck porn on, which is a shame because it's not a bad console in it's own right and I'd love to buy one to crack it and fill with emulators and shit because I just like fucking around with tech. Can't justify the money on another project right now though when I'm already working on a PS3 project.

>>6757466
Apparently only that my boss is starting to be psychical with me lol

Japanese whiskey tastes like burnt tires

and im a fucking weaboo

>>6756735

*wheeeeeze* I see that shit selling at specs for $300. I can't believe people fall for it.

The best walker stops at Green, mah man.

Not really a big whiskey fan but I do love G&T, any of you alcoholics recommend any good luxury Gins or Tonics?

>>6760118
Green was my go to until they stopped production. Heard it is back now. Not sure if it tastes the same.

>>6760396
Sipsmiths for martini or tonics. Really nice gin. I find that spending big money on gin doesnt have much difference. A nice $40-50 bottle should do you right.

>>6747519

>>6760770
I'M FUN AND HAVE A GREAT PERSONALITY.

>>6760750
With good Gin you can have a lot of fun trying exotic flavors and mixing them with different tonics and garnishes I found, certainly no short of variety.

>>6760396
If you are compelled to spend on Gin try some Ferdinand's Saar Goldcap. Neat or maybe with plain soda if that is your thing.

>>6761212
You are most definitely correct. A great gin should be drinkable neat. I dont recall the name, but someone showed me a gin that was purple in the bottle but PH reactive and would change colors depending on what you mixed with. I did not drink it and am not sure if it is a gimmick but i thought it sounded cool for a party trick. I was a longtime Sapphire drinker back in the day. I drink gin in private now, too many sins for the public. I like a martini after dinner when i go out though.

>>6761366
I'm a Britbong so trust me i'm spoilt for choice, basically have Sapphire in my blood at this point. I recommend Liverpool gin if you can ever come across it for something unique, pretty cheap considering its quality. Honestly though tonic is just as if not more important than the gin if it's taste you're concerned about.

Not sure how the average burger treats G&T, the whole industry has boomed over here massively as of recent so it's not even rare to see young people drinking it.

>>6761642
You are speaking to an average burger. Some of us have a taste for tonic, most dont. My family drank tonic for generations. Got that from you guys during the war. I will look out for liverpool gin. My brother travels to Europe often too. We have alot of gin bars popping up in NYC last two years. It seems to be en vogue right now. I had some homemade gin from the netherlands, waiting for them to actually label it. Once they decide on a name ill pass it on somehow. It was amazing.

>>6747260
you dont know shit about whiskey

I'm treating myself by not cashing out and investing in TEL

enjoy your cat piss

>>6763636
I agree. There is a reason it is in high demand.
