I honestly think you are supposed to drink it straight. It was originally created as a medicine, after all.

Whisky is a drink you have to adjust to. There's a lot to it, and that first stage where it's just firewater is a tricky one to get past, but you do get used to it and that's when it really starts opening up. Especially considering how different every style is; bourbon is sweeter and more "woody", scotch comes in six notably different styles from different regions of Scotland, you've got japanese and canadian which borrow heavily from scotch, and the green labelled bottle at the front of my pic is a welsh whisky which is utterly unlike any other one I've ever had.

At the same time, you like what you like, man. It doesn't matter what you appreciate, as long as you truly appreciate something. Stick with your gin if that's your jam, I'm sure you could tell me what you love about it just like I have with whisky and I'd still not be a fan of it.

I stopped drinking, but I still have three bottles of this godawful shit rolling around in one of my crisper drawers because I was raised too frugal to throw them out. I bought them on sale thinking they were a hard cider, but theyre just disgusting apple flavored ale that caused horrible heartburn and acid reflux.
I keep thinking maybe I can use them in cooking somehow, like apple-flavored beer biscuits, or some apple-ale dessert thing or some bullshit like that... I really should just toss them so I can have more room for my vegetables.

Bubbly white wine, bitches love that shit. If she really doesn't know anything about wine she might even be into that peach/raspberry flavored wine crap. You're gonna hate it but it's cheap and you're not taking any risks. You can also find cheap champagne easily.

Depends what you're cooking. Most girls will drop their pants for champagne or prosecco, but it sounds like you're well past the pants-dropping stage. If you're cooking chicken, fish or other white meat, go for a white wine. Red meats or strong flavours, go for a red.

Still, bubbly is a winner if you want to score some points.

Thanks for the reply.
Well it's not the burn itself I dislike (although it is what I don't like about cognac), but more that long lasting aftertaste. I'm really not implying it is the same, but it gives me the same feeling as when I had to suck out gas from a motorcycle tank to another. It lingers for a long time and doesn't make me come back for more, I really prefer the clean, crisp taste of a good gin. I'll keep trying whiskies as I have several real enthusiasts around me, maybe it'll change over time (already 33 tho).
