I’m white and I love the stuff. 1 shot is like a Xanax for me. I don’t shoot it but it’s the equivalent of a good shot. I just sip it with one ice cube. It hits me in a way that no other liquor does. Just calms me and helps me. I really love it. I won’t ever get drunk on it though.

They think it's classy, it's sweet, and alcoholic. Of course they like that. Also, the liquor store I work at locks up all the Hennessy, even the 50ml minis. Lol it's in a predominantly white area, but we lock it up nonetheless for when the nigs show up.

It's a fucking trip, but it also mandates drinking it over the course of at least an hour

>Why do African Americans like this drink so much?

My understanding is that it goes back to the days of WW2 where black american servicemen would be on leave in Paris and find themselves treated as equals for the first time in their lives, which lead to them going out on the town and developing a taste for French booze. They took this back to the US with them and passed it on to their descendants

>> No.13463753

>>13463728
Youre the second person Ive heard mention the need to take your time with it. Does it actually develop that much or is it more about its complexity? The menthol is whats drawing me to it, peat and menthol are the choice flavors.

we already have a booze thread dude

>> No.13463785

>>13463753
best way I can describe it is the overall profile of flavors is pretty consistent, but the relative intensity of each individual flavor changes quite a bit

it starts out sweet and spicy on the front end, peaty, herbal, and green on the backend at first, but as time passes and your palate acclimates, it inverts
I give mine about 2 drops of water, but I've also tried it straight and it's a different experience

Ive found that prices vary greatly for me depending on the season and location. Found cheap bottles of Ardbeg 10, Ive seen Costco sell Laphroaig for 60 leaf dollars. Spend some time in the whisky threads and take note of the stuff youd like to try and then keep an eye out when your shopping. Sometimes store owners need to clear good stuff out of inventory and drop the price significantly.

Bullshit. Former slaves didn't avoid things just because their owners did them. That should be obvious enough from the number of niggers with last names like "Williams", "Johnson", and "Smith" who just continued using the last name of their former master once they were freed.

As with anything white-man-made, nigs have to steal it. And since rappers only talk about cognac and champagne and use the brand names in their rhymes, it makes it well known among their populace. I doubt we are ever going to hear any of them rap aboud Ardbeg Uigedail, Auchentoschan, Bruichladdich, Bunnahabhai or Caol Ila. It is also overpriced and in their mind thus classy.
