Re: Ignorance knows no borders

Couldn't agree more. I used to drink JD until I wondered through the haze how it could possibly be that every sip ...uhh... yeah ..... tastes exactly the same. How do they get round Hisen...Heizen..that unshertainty thing.

Then realised it must come from a chemical factory.

Which is why, natch, their ads just HAVE to show a good ole boy in work pants and rough hewn barrels.

Haven't touched a drop since.

JB about the same.

Take my advice and the no brainer is JW. Rotate the labels and take your time to decide which one is behind the bar in heaven.

P.S. When drinking in China don't kid yourself it is the real thing. I have ordered bottles of Chivas Regal to get my business associates drunk (welcome to China) and it was the right shape, the right label, but one sniff and it was definitely certifiably not Chivas Regal. At least, up till now, in China they don't know the difference so you still get whatever brownie points there are to be got for ordering a (moderately) expensive hooch.
