latebloomer..Bourbon with ice,Coke and Salted peanuts I might just try that out..coke and salt together that must be an American thing yea
I think it's more a southern thing, colonial. First found out about it when I was working at the Georgia State Capitol building in Atlanta. They used to have bags of salted peanuts out next to bottles of coke for the legislators. Tried it myself, but never with bourbon...probably goes down much better that way.
Coke and peanuts!
Yeah, must be a southern thing because most people cringe when I say I grew up in Texas with coke and peanuts.
Take the coke, throw a few peanuts in the bottle or can...and drink.
How is that any different really, then shoving a handful of peanuts in your mouth, chewing them to the consistency of chunky peanut butter, and then swigging it all back with a frosty Coca-Cola?
Wow, is the weekend here yet?!
Almost treacle, almost.
I'm not much of a soda drinker anymore, hardly ever have anything but water and wine, but I wouldn't turn down a rum and coke with some peanuts thrown in.
Ahh, nostalgia...

Och aye a braw wee dram. The same mood altering liquid you consumed Mr T at the rate of 1 every 30 minutes along with an industrial strength lager and a wee Partick woodbine for 6 hours. Total Ne`erday units - plenty.Quote

Oh Yes! A lovely whisky. Price has risen in recent years and now retails for about 50% more than comparable malts, e.g., Laphroaig. Fifteen years ago they all cost roughly the same unless you were going for a particularly special - i.e., rare / expensive / old - bottle. Some tourist pubs used to charge by the age, so Lagavulin sometimes cost more than, say, a 12 year old malt, but this was to rip off the tourists (and gullible Scots) as the bottles themselves were all roughly the same price.

May I recommend another Islay malt - Caol Ila.
