I was thinking wax-paper Dixie cups, myself...
I can’t afford an entire Solo cup’s worth...

“”Hmmm, buy a new car or get a bottle of scotch.”””
That was my initial thought. Unless the bottle has four wheels, a V8 engine and can haul 7500lbs... I can’t use it.

This is truly for the man who has everything already. Just a vanity object.

If they were bottled, then that doesn’t count. It has to age in the cask. It’s the wood that mellows it.

I'd put a nipple on it and 'drank' it right from the bottle :-)
Seriously... I'll savor my Johnnie Walker Blue Label + one cube of ice in a Steuben lead crystal old fashioned with a side of very cold filtered water ;-)

Hmmm, buy a new car or get a bottle of scotch.2 hours later, the car will still be on it's first tank of gas; as opposed to getting drained from someone else's.
Ain't nothing on heaven or earth that tastes so good it's worth as much as a decent car. That is, unless it's an antidote for some horrible poison .... say Iocaine Powder ....

Mine typically is aged one to two weeks as noted by the “born on date” on the bottom of the can.

I figgered you had drank some pretty fancy liquors but I knew you probably poured some even fancier for a few high rolling customers.

Hmmmmm interesting.
Asti Spumanti works well enough for me.
Thanks.
There’s similarly teas in Hong Kong that go for say $4,000/cup.

Out of a old coffee mug from under the truck seat will work too. The alcohol ought to kill the bad stuff, right?

some of the places i worked, yeah, selling $200-300 bottles of wine and champagne was pretty common.
i’m in a small town bar now tho. i’ve got a couple scotches and burbons that run $10/shot, but nothing truly fancy.

A nice cold bottle of your favorite cola from one of those cold water coolers down to the filling station, drink about half of it and top it off with that whiskey they’re selling.
Won’t hurt the cola a bit.

I bought my son a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue several years ago......should never have asked him what he wanted for Christmas. Fool that I was I thought he was going to drink it. When his first son was born I asked if he opened it. No, not yet. Second son, not yet. Finally 8 years later when his daughter was born he opened it. I also bought him Waterford DOUBLE old fashion glasses.

About as soon as it goes into one of those plastic milk jugs so it’s best aged until the jug is about half full.
