Violator as a forum rum connoisseur, your thoughts?

That is a $1,500 bottle of Tequila right there! I have seen it at my local store for sale.
I will stick with the Reposado which is the best I have ever tasted. I've had some $600 bottle, and at $100, the Repsado is fantastic and a good value.

A funny story:

On my trip to Monaco, I ordered a glass of 12yr Teeling. I was impressed when they brought it out on a tray by itself (we were a group of 8) under a dome. When the dome was opened, the drink was smoking. I asked if that was the Teeling (I had had it the night before, without the presentation) and they confirmed it was, twice. After my first sip, which confirmed it WASN"T whiskey of any sort, a bartender hurried up and apologized for serving the wrong drink. SO much for confirming it was the correct drink!

upstatedoc · 08-13-2019, 03:15 PM

why the hell was it smoking?

Maynard · 08-13-2019, 03:39 PM

I read an article recently about these little smoker gizmos that put out actual flavoring smoke, with recipes for drinks like this where you either bubble the smoke through them or layer it on top, sometimes with little 'smoker boxes' to let it steep, I guess. To me it all looked like an extension of the vaping smoke play, rather than something enticing. They were working on the theory that the love of smoke flavored things was a sign of evolutionary superiority, so I had more Laphroaig and congratulated my ancestors on some genius discoveries.
