I wonder how long they aged him.

At least he died happy.

That's sad, but the Nikka Miyagi distillery saw half its employees killed in a tsunami last year and all the barrels were destroyed by the salt water.

But I'm sure I feel very bad for the guy who died at the Glenfiddich distillery too.

"I'm afraid he didn't die quickly, he got out to pee three times."

He bravely fought off his rescuers for several hours.

Sybarite: Is this the thread where I display my drinking superiority by name dropping $400/bottle 30yr Scotch?

This may be the thread where you display your idiocy by name dropping a 400$ bottle of scotch....but it all depends on the name you drop.

No Hero tag?

I've always wondered how they make distilled spirits.

Rescuer pulled him out several times but he kept hopping back in.

He was stuck in the vat for 12 hours. Poor bastard died of a burst bladder.

/Dumbass! Now we've got to piss in the boat!/

lightweight.

You forgot to start that with , "Yo, Glenfiddich, I'm-a let you finish, but..." and and it with "OF ALL TIME!"

Glenfiddich Scotch: Now made with real Scots.

Just in: He will be replaced by his twin brother who already knows all about his co-workers from the man's stories, and request's that they all just call him by the same name to avoid any confusion.

sad? the hell

Of all the ways to go, I find that dying in a vat of single malt is the most appealing

yall go ahead and snob verb all you want
I enjoy the Glenfiddich

*ObscureNameHere looks up from glass of 40 Creek Barrel Select, reads thread, swirls the ice cube a couple of times, goes back to feeling smug with his superiour whiskey*

Did you hear about Matt who fell into a vat
Well they say that he drowned but it took him a week
And they say that it wasn't as strange as all that
When you think that he kept getting out for a leak.

/Blasphemy

Isn't this considered "natural causes" in Scotland?


Well, that and decapitation.

I like Glenfiddich. Does this mean I will have to turn in my ironicaly thick black framed glasses?

/strings begin

Legend has it that one of John Jameson's workers became hardened and bitter toward his employer and benefactor. When he began to come in to work already drunk and belligerent, it was understandable. When he began to beat off in the machinery...that was another matter. And though Jameson was kind, his employee was relentless. So in the end it was the very semen-tainted vat of John Jameson's Irish Whiskey the man poisoned that would prove...


...his tomb...

cbackous: Fuggin Bizzy: Not a fan of Glenfiddich - I prefer Jameson, myself. (I know, they're not exactly the same kind of booze, depending on how familiar you are with whisky vs. whiskey.)

There, I name-dropped a $30-$35 bottle of Irish whiskey. It's not very obscure. You've probably heard of it, and can easily acquire some at your local liquor store if you're interested.

that is more of a scotch vs whiskey thing...

I can drink about any scotch in the world. jameson or any mash whisky will make me puke. (this is due to a failed koolaid bourbon experiment when I was 12)

cbackous: cgraves67: At least he died happy.

doubtful.. Glenfiddich sucks

Nah. Glenfiddich isn't bad. The 15 year is pretty decent. However, for the money, The Dalmore 12 year is a great buy.

/but drink what you like and screw the haters.

So that's why that master cooper retired a little while ago.

That's be more a display of taste and purchasing power. Drinking prowess is determined by your ability to stomach vile swill like radiator moonshine, pruno, and rubbing alcohol.

Well played, sir. Well played.
