Dating back to July 2020 it’s approximately equal parts:
- Basil Hayden’s
- Crown Royal
- Makers Mark
- Jameson
- Suntory Toki
- Glen Scotia
- Evan Williams
- Bulleit Rye
- Trader Joes Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
How is this not considered sacrilege?

Oysters were killer

Nobody but me touched the scotch after dinner. Assholes.

My gf made me leave it for them anyway though.
Bring something accessible like Macallan or Glenmorangie next time unless you know there are going to be experienced Scotch drinkers in attendance. Not sure what you were thinking with Laphroaig.

I’ve never cared for the infinity bottle concept, and now I really hate it.

I told some friends about this project tonight. Mixed reactions.

Finally had some people over and we sat around the table to dig into this infinity bottle. Totally foreign concept to these guys … they were taking pictures of it and texting it to other people. Responses were “this is like a soda Graveyard but with whiskey” and “that looks like 9 simultaneous hangovers” etc.

Well joke’s on them because it was solid and we drank half of it.

I’m gonna repelenish, but stop tracking so closely. Just gonna pour in a bit of this and that, keep it going.

I get the concept and have no opinion one way or another, but closely tracking quantities seems fairly pointless.

Yes I thought I was clear that I realized this.

I've started my infinity bottle recently, but not tracking anything. And not really adding to it until it is the last few sips of a bottle. I've had some good whiskeys lately, so I'm excited to see how this one turns out.

when you said you "pour a bit of this, a bit of that" in yours, it sounded like you poured before your bottle was finished. That is why i was so specific. Why are Reid and I having a hard time understanding you, bammer

I usually throw in an 1 - 2 ounces when I first open a bottle. Otherwise, I worry I'll forget.
