he actually has a point. there is more than just "trace amounts" of estrogen shit in beer.
people always whine about phytoestrogens in soy sauce and therefore in asian foods. and there is some. but in reality there is literally 50x times more estro shit in regular lager beer than there is in soy sauce.
constant/excessive beer drinking is one of the biggest traps in life. there's nothing manly about it. enjoy your low life quality, bad sleeps quality, low mood, impotence etc gay shit.

Johnnie Walker Black is the perfect compromise. It's sweet, rich and very smooth, but without the trashy notes of a bourbon. It's got the beautiful flavour of a scotch without being so complex that you have to sit down and contemplate to truly enjoy it. I love a complex scotch, but sometimes I just want a good whisky. Johnnie Walker Black is that whisky.

I added a bit of water but it made it taste trashy, so I've stuck to drinking it room temperature and neat, but my methods vary slightly each time. Smelling is really important and holding it in your mouth as well, from what I can tell. I actually enjoy sipping it, but I'm taking really small sips to get true enjoyment out of it.

Try some Old Grand Dad Bonded or 114.
Same mashbill higher proof, and older, the guy on the label is actually Basil Hayden.

truth. whats funny is the faggots obsessed with whisky/bourbon don't even have stressful jobs or life. often don't even have children. it's one thing to need a whisky to "UNWIND" at the end of a long stressful day. but the homos who are obsessed with it do jack shit all day. wtf are you "unwinding" from? repressed homosexuality? theyd be better off getting 100% sober and clear headed and getting their life together. instead of larping as "tough men" obsessed with a brown spirit

checked. i'm in no way tough, I read books and manuals for fun and work as an engineer. no kids, lots of money, work is semi stressful, whiskey just tastes good. it's fun. so yeah whatever man

I’m looking to buy a really nice and expensive bottle for $200-$300?
Any suggestions?

You're making whiskeyfags sound way cooler and more interesting than they really are

[Anonymous No.17270742]

i don't care about unwinding or any of that shit desu. i started off by watching whiskytube and following the corresponding subs. it was fun and casual in the beginning but now i'm buying bottles weekly because of fear of missing out. i can't drink all the shit i buy and it feels like i'm one of these boomers that collect star wars or KISS fan merch.

tl;dr kill me

Tried this again today, and it's not so bad. Yesterday it tasted like cheap sherry, but today it's more nutty/chocolatey. Actually pretty good.

>I’m afraid those processes may make whisky lose its soul, while a large part of that soul comes from time, not from “legal aromatisation”

This is the kind of fag that screams
>noooooooooooooo you can't heckin put staves in your aging barrels, only standard barrels are allowed
>reeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you're only allowed to list the age of the youngest scotch in the blend, you can't comprehensively list all the scotches, their portions, and their ages

Glenfiddich 14 uses virgin oak barrels and its pretty good, unfortunately I haven't about any other scotch that does virgin oak aging well

>>17267655
I loved the 10, excellent for its price. I hated the 17 that was red wine cask finished, absolute trash and probably the worst single malt I've ever had.

It’s aged 14 years in ex bourbon with a short finish in virgin oak.

[Anonymous No.17271617]

this scotch used to go very hard
love from America
I hate Brown-Forman so much its unreal

>>17271563
The discussion is about using using virgin oak barrels at all, not about how they're used. Realistically the flavor they give is too heavy to use during the whole maturation. I don't think they could be used for more than finishing or as a small portion of the casks used in a single malt/blend. American malts use virgin oak barrels and they usually go for pretty short aging.

[Anonymous No.17271655]

>>17271617
Well yea, in Scotland they generally won’t age whisky in virgin oak for longer than 2 years. They consider it over oaked at that point, unlike bourbon.

>Unironically it's a good expression.
The whisky market has become much more competitive in the last 10 years as a younger customer base has entered the fray. Most of the inspiration comes from the craft beer scene and it's kind of retarded. Either way, the worst way to choose a whisky is by the label anyway, it's all just bs to make you feel a certain way about the product.

I hate overoaked liquor, it's so spicy.
I prefer the smooth vanilla and caramell flavors you get from 2nd fill casks.
