Depends on the state of climate change at any given moment. When fresh, they tend to be warm, unless they were shed outside while Donald Trump was being sworn in inside the Capitol rotunda.

I like The Macallan. You have to say THE Macallan--or so say those at the distillery which I have visited.

What? No Arizona cactus juice?

Tried the 18 once. Delicious, but burned a hole in my wallet….

No. Beers like that haven't sold well, and I don't know of any hard liquors like that. Now, raicilla (a Mexican moonshine that's way better than tequila) is really good. Has a smokey, full bodied flavor and isn't salty like tequilla. Last time I had that was at a little, ancient (still had Edison fuses), apartment complex down in the gunfire district sitting on the tailgate of my truck after I fixed his unit's electrics, sipping it from a mason jar. Good stuff.

I have a fat wallet. I drink it cut with a little water. No ice--big no no according to the distillery people. Whisky first, water, chilled, second. Brings out the aroma and bouquet of the scotch.

Brewed with real cactus juice (prickly pear cactus juice).

That's the kind of crap a metrosexual would drink.

A real man would chew the nopales.

Yep. Real beer doesn't have fruit in it or served with it.

Anything but Bud Light.
I feel the need to try Buffalo Trace. Saw it mentioned in a movie or series I liked. Not all bars or restaurants have it in stock so I will keep looking.

I'll drink just about anything but tend to go for a nice aged drink like scotch or Anejo tequila. I've tried plenty of tequila since we have a Mexican restaurant that carries just about every tequila you can get in Michigan. Scotch tends to break the bank at times though, and I don't drink enough to justify dropping the money.

Here's a good tequila that is getting harder to come by.

I still have the decanter.
