Thread: What are you drinking today?

However as time has gone on like many spirits they have become extremely complex and refined. The Anejo pictured if you read the bottle was distilled and aged in American White Oak barrels then a French Limousine barrel. If you drank this you would enjoy it. It has an incredibly nice nose and very fruity Agave taste. This is not a Shot glass, lime, salt chaser to avoid gagging Tequila of days past. Same goes for Bourbon, Whiskey etc they are incredibly good to drink and enjoy. If you have to "chase" a booze with something else to avoid the taste, you are drinking terrible liquor.

What would one chase rotgutbrandy with? Asking for a friend…
