Jack Daniel’s Historic Whiskey Could Go Down Drain

Here’s a sobering thought: Hundreds of bottles of Jack Daniel’s whiskey, some of it almost 100 years old, may be unceremoniously poured down a drain because authorities suspect it was being sold by someone without a license.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Here’s a sobering thought: Hundreds of bottles of Jack Daniel’s whiskey, some of it almost 100 years old, may be unceremoniously poured down a drain because authorities suspect it was being sold by someone without a license.

Officials seized 2,400 bottles late last month during warehouse raids in Nashville and Lynchburg, the southern Tennessee town where the whiskey is distilled.

“Punish the person, not the whiskey,” said an outraged Kyle MacDonald, 28, a Jack Daniel’s drinker from British Columbia who promotes the whiskey on his blog. “Jack never did anything wrong, and the whiskey itself is innocent.”

Investigators are also looking into whether some of the bottles had been stolen from the distillery. No one has been arrested.

Authorities are still determining how much of the liquor will be disposed of, and how much can be sold at auction.

Tennessee law requires officials to destroy whiskey that cannot be sold legally in the state, such as bottles designed for sale overseas and those with broken seals.

“We’d pour it out,” said Danielle Elks, executive director of the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission.

The estimated value of the liquor is $1 million, possibly driven up by the value of the antique bottles, which range from 3-liter bottles to half-pints.

One seized bottle dates to 1914, with its seal unbroken. Elks said it is worth $10,000 on the collectors market. Investigators are looking into whether the liquor was being sold for the value of the bottles rather than the whiskey.

“Someone was making a great deal of profit,” she said.

Tennessee whiskeys age in charred white oak barrels, but the maturing process that gives them character mostly stops when it is bottled. A bottled whiskey can deteriorate over a long period of time, especially if it is opened or exposed to sunlight and heat.

Christopher Carlsson, a spirits connoisseur and collector in Rochester, N.Y., said old vintages of whiskey in their original containers are highly prized.

“A lot of these bottles are priceless,” he said. “It’s like having a rare painting. It’s heavily collected.”

The raids, prompted by a tip, were conducted at two warehouses and a home in Lynchburg, about 65 miles southeast of Nashville. Another raid was at a Nashville hotel room where drinks were being served and bottles were being sold.

For now, the whiskey is being stored in a Nashville vault.

Elks acknowledged that pouring out the whiskey would not be a happy hour for her.

“It’d kill me,” she said.

A 3-liter bottle of Jack Daniel’s whiskey, a size that cannot be sold in the U.S., is displayed Thursday, Nov. 15, 2007, in Nashville, Tenn. The bottle, along with the boxes of bottles along the wall, are among those that may be destroyed because authorities suspect they were being sold by someone without a license. Officials seized 2,400 bottles in October during raids in Nashville and Lynchburg, the southern Tennessee town where the whiskey is distilled. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)

Alcohol Shown to be More Healthy Than Water

In a number of carefully controlled trials,
scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter
of water each day, at the end of the year, we would
have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli (E.
coli) bacteria found in feces.

In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of Poop.
However, we do not run that risk when drinking wine
(or rum, whiskey, beer or other liquor) because
alcohol has to go through purification process of
boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:
Water = Poop
Wine = Health

Therefore, it’s better to drink wine and talk
stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit.

The Best Drinking Shoes

Here we go… over years and years of drinking practice, and intensive shoe testing I feel that I have been able to narrow down what makes a good drinking shoe. There are 3 key factors when deciding on a good drinking shoe.

First, the shoe needs to be comfortable. When at a party, or bar, chances are you are going to be on you feet the majority of the time. So wear something that you are going to be able to handle after a few hours. Also, depending on where you live might entail if you will be walking to the bar, or even from bar to bar.

Second, the shoe needs to provide good balance. I’m sure everyone has seen “that guy” at the bar who had on some non-drinking shoes, and couldn’t even stand. Never blame the alcohol for this, or for you falling on your face. Just try to remember that its time to invest in some more stable drinking shoes.

And Lastly, the Ultimate drinking shoe needs to be nimble. (Definition: Agile, fast, light in movement; able to think quickly and cleverly) It’s a good thing if your shoes can do these things for you, because chances are your thinking won’t be too “quick” or “clever” after drinking your face off all night. So having a nimble drinking shoe is a plus because who knows what kind of mischief and shenanigans you might end up getting into that night. Its best to have a shoe that allows you to run at full speed and wont fall off, or hurt to run in.

Rainbow Sandals always good, easy to put on, comfortable, provide for pretty good balance; almost like being barefoot. Some draw backs are that as easy as they are to put on, they are as easy to lose, definitely not nimble, and your feet are filthy after a night in a crowded bar. If you have to run for any reason the night while wearing these, you are better off ditching them.

Chuck Taylor, Converse – Always a good call. Fairly easy to put on, although the laces ad some difficulty when hammered. Flat-soled shoe provides for good balance. But they are not the most comfortable shoe after wearing for long periods of time. Definitely don’t feel to good to run in, but at least you will be able to stand and look stylish as always in them.

The Slip on Chuck Tailors – I am pretty sure these were made for this purpose. All the benefits listed above, without the hassle of tying your shoes.

The Nike Free Shoe – This could possible be the ultimate drinking shoe. It passes all three criteria listed above. Very comfortable and great for balance, almost like being barefoot. And your nimbleness will be unmatched in these babies! They weigh next to nothing, and will allow you to run at your drunkin’ Max in complete comfort.

Overall, Chuck’s still got my vote for the Best Drinking shoe. Looks, comfort and balance, all there with some very slight drawbacks.

Guts Drinking Game

1 Star2 Stars3 Stars4 Stars5 Stars (1 votes, average: 4 out of 5)
Loading ... Loading ...

Whats Needed: A deck of cards, 3 or more people and a bottle of liquor.

How to Play: Deal two cards to every player. After you look at your hand, hold them face down above the table, then someone says “1,2,3, Guts.” If you want to play you hold on to your cards, if you don’t you simply drop them.

Card rankings: 6:9 is the best hand to have, pair of aces is second and pair of Kings and so on down. If no one has a pair, the high card wins.

Now if you stay in you go head to head with who ever is left. The losers take a shot.

If you are the only one that stays in you go against a 3-card ghost hand where any two cards are played against your had. If you beat the ghost hand then you get to pass out a drink, if you lose you take the shot.

Finally, if everyone folds the person with the best hand has to take the shot because they have no guts.

Option: You can also just play with drinks if you dont think you can handle the shots.

Feel free to post more below

Do’s

- Start early, End Late.

- Get her number.

- Finish your drink, no matter what.

- DO learn how to make a rose out of a cocktail napkin…. you’ll get laid at least once in your life from this move. (Hendu)

——————————————————-

Don’ts

- Guys: No Frozen Drinks

- Forget her number.

- Drink and drive - you might spill your drink.

- Pass out with your shoes on. (especially around a crowd age 25 and under).

- Confess your love to a girl you met that night. Strippers excluded.

- Ever say “No” to a free drink, or shot. (This is the one time you are aloud to accept any drink. i.e. Frozen/Girly drink. Just finish it fast, and get it out of hand.)

- Leave anything left in your glass, cup, can or bottle. (If you do, your friends are aloud to call you “Half-Drink-Nancy” the rest of the night).

- Look at yourself in the mirror after your 8th drink… it will shake your confidence. (Hendu)

- Drink from a straw… unless you like boys…. little boys. (Hendu)

Things Men Should Know About Drinking

1 Star2 Stars3 Stars4 Stars5 Stars (No Ratings Yet)
Loading ... Loading ...

- Don’t call the bartender Barkeep, Chief, Buddy, or Ace, unless his actual name, in fact, is Barkeep, Chief, Buddy, or Ace.

- The perfect negroni: four parts gin, one part sweet vermouth, and one part Campari shaken with ice and strained. Orange peel.

- Citrus cocktails benefit greatly from rubbing lemon peel around the rim of the glass.

- Jack Daniel’s. Rocks.

- Never utter the words I and love and you if you’ve had more than three drinks.

- If you’re a lightweight, rule above applies after one drink.

- There is no upside to karaoke.

- No Blended drinks; OK for the Ladies.

- Fresh orange juice. Fresh lemon juice. Fresh lime juice.

- Every man should know how to make at least one drink from a foreign country, preferably one taught to him by a local female with whom he has had a complicated, unresolved, and quite possibly dangerous dalliance.

- There is no such thing as a chocolate martini.

- There is a reason for the scarcity of piano bars.

- Visiting the pub will be cheaper in the long run if you tip the bartender regularly and more generously than is necessary.

- The perfect margarita: one part fresh lime juice, one part Cointreau, and one and a half parts tequila over ice.

- On those chrome, hourglass-shaped bar measuring cups, the big side is the jigger. The little side is the pony. Never use the pony.

- If you must: single-malt Scotch in a brandy snifter with a splash of water.

- Avoid bars that use plastic cups, bars whose bathrooms consist solely of a trough-style urinal, bars with chicken wire protecting the band, bars where Patrick Swayze is the bouncer.

- No one but the bouncer cares how tough you are, and he already knows you’re not that tough.

- Even if you have ascertained your bartender’s name, behaving overly familiar with him will be seen as a pathetic gambit for free drinks or, worse, proof that you have nobody to go to for affection other than a random service-industry professional who does not, in fact, know you and just wants your money.

- Once you’ve fallen off a stool, there is little you can say to the bartender that will change his mind about asking you to leave.

- There is no shame in club soda and cranberry juice.

- Don’t eat the worm.

- If you don’t smoke and you’re in a bar, don’t complain about other people who happen to be smoking, because, virtuous friend, you are in a bar.

- Instead of trying to remember whether it’s “beer before liquor” or the other way around, just be an adult and stick to one or the other.

- Acceptable drinks for men: beer, wine, whiskey, cocktails that are neither sweet nor made with dairy or fruit other than lime or lemon or orange.

- Acceptable drinks for women: whatever they want, except a certain few.

- A certain few: the grasshopper, the pink lady, and any variety of spritzer.

- Never question a woman’s drink choice.

- If you’re the first in the group to arrive and you start a tab on your card, you deserve exactly what’s coming to you.

- Campari shaken with ice and strained into a martini glass.

- Unless you are lounging on the Promenade Deck, do not drink from a fruit.

- The perfect martini: There is no such thing as the perfect martini. Make it the way it tastes best to you. Provided that you remember that there is no such thing as a chocolate martini.

- A thought for the holidays: Gift wine should not be recognizable as having come from a grocery store.

- Gift wine, being a gift, is not for tonight’s party. Unless the host opens it.

- Decent wine costs 15 dollars. Good wine costs 35 dollars. Nobody can tell the difference.

- Never drink in a place that calls itself an eatery.

- The cosmopolitan is over.

- Rye isn’t as popular as it used to be.

- The perfect highball: one part rye to three parts ginger ale over Ice.

- There is an ever-so-slight upside to a wet-T-Shirt contest, as long as you’re not in it.

- It is not necessary to request premium liquor for a mixed drink in which you cannot taste it, such as a gimlet or sour.

- On the other hand, ascertain exactly how nonpremium the “well” liquor is before you opt against the good stuff.

- Sitting at the bar works only for two people. Three or more requires a table.

- Never order a frozen drink in a place that serves pickled eggs.

- Actually, never order a frozen drink.

- It’s also not a bad idea to eschew the pickled pigs’ feet, although their presence is fairly strong evidence that you’ve accidentally stumbled upon a real tavern.

- For the sake of the children, leave the pistol at home.

- Champagne is a place. Bordeaux is a place. Champale is not a place.

- Grappa is to lighter fluid as ouzo is to lighter fluid.

- Garnish matters.

- Despite a high ratio of female clientele, an insouciant way with fried mozzarella, and their prevalence in resort towns, establishments where a waitress pours shots into your mouth from a bottle she holsters in a bandolier are fraught with peril.

- When throwing a party, break the seals on all liquor bottles, lest guests should hesitate to open them and come to doubt your hospitality.

- Better yet: Hire a bartender.

- The perfect Manhattan: two parts bourbon, one part sweet vermouth, bitters, and a splash of cherry juice. Over rocks or not.

- The perfect Shirley Temple: ginger ale over ice to fill a wineglass, splash grenadine, orange slice, lemon twist, cherry.

- At the holiday office party, consume one drink less than your boss.

- Adopt a new favorite cocktail on a seasonal basis.

- That sangria means “bloodletting” is more a cautionary note than a simple fact.

- Dry martinis, being nothing but gin, aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.

- If you still want a martini, know that you cannot actually bruise gin, so go ahead and shake.

- On the other hand, shaking introduces air bubbles that make the martini look cloudy for a time, so stir, already, if you’re so particular.

- Drinks that give you bad breath: beer, anything sweet, anything with milk.

- Drinks that give you good breath: gin and tonic, gimlet, vodka and cranberry, anything with citrus.

- Instead of ordering that shot of After Shock to cap off the evening, one could just walk calmly into the street, lie down, and wait.
