:shudder:My pap was emptying his liquor cabinet last weekend. He gave me a bottle of cutty sark and old grand dad that both look pretty old. Plus some earl grey liquor and a bottle of Jim beam in some duck stamp bottle. All are kind of old.GrandTre drank the Old Crow. And he could sleep on log piles outside when it was below freezing.I should have bought a bottle just to see the quality. That's a lot of drunk for eleven bucks.
There's also a bottle of Tia Maria that is apparently from the 60s. A little googling has the bottle selling for $150.
Are any of these good, worth drinking, or worth money?
Stole some THAT from my dad, too. It may be my only regret in those devil-may-care days of thievery (i.e., when I was 13). Rotgut Scotch is the worst - you can mix other trash with something & make it bearable; Scotch - no.
The 3 sickest times from drinking I can recall from when I was a youngster:
Must've been 16 or so because I was driving. A friend & I drank 7 bottles of TJ Swann. Along with the 5 bags of Doritos, I'm sure it made a pretty picture when we were both puking in a drainage ditch.
Should've been around the same time because I was yet again - surprise! - driving. Picked up one of the local drunks not named Uruk as he was walking down the road. He had a gallon milk jug that did have some milk in it. But the rest was Southern Comfort.
And the last was the Cutty Sark caper. My brother & I got so sick we decided to stick to stealing beer from our parents.

Fake your own death. Arise on the third day, but try to keep any religious connotations on the DL...you know how people in Texas can be.

Booze: So much goodness -- usually a mixed sam adams sampler at great prices, wine (see cos), their costco vodka is good, I get my 1.75s of Maker's there...lost of the big names for less than liquor store prices here anyway.
Food: Pre-Cooked package of kirkland bacon. You want solid bacon in a minute? Done. You want to be lazy with your kid's bacon and eggs? Done. You wanna top that burger/sandwich/apple? Done. Lots of good butcher type options. Tons of great cheese. Bulk seasoning is the bomb too.
Other: Drugs. Zyrtec? Prilosec? Zantec? Etc. It's cheaper. TVs obviously. Socks, oh sweet baby jesus the socks. Great towels too.
Just a few things I can think of while finishing the 23 year Pappy solo.

When I was a teenager (a year or two after we stole the Cutty), I worked at a local marina and with an old black dude who would drink Cutty all day. Still remember asking him "Mr Slim, how can you drink that?". "Easy on my stomach".I've bartended off and on since I was 21. Everywhere I've worked has carried Cutty and I have yet to ever pour it.:shudder:Stole some THAT from my dad, too.

I haven't bartended as much as you have, though I did a few years when I was younger. But I agree - I have NEVER had a call for that crap, yet every bar I had ever been in carried it.

My alcohol consumption is down 90% in the last three months. No lie. I went from going to bed drunk every night to being able to count on one hand the special occasions that call for more than two beers.

My old man got inducted into his High School's Hall of Fame tonight. Apparently it's a pretty big deal. He had a five sentence acceptance speech prepared and barely got through it without choking up.

\They're all basically the same as when they were bottle, except for any liquid that may have evaporated. Once any booze whether tequila bourbon, wine, whatever- once it leaves the barrel and goes to the bottle, the only ageing it does is of the biological degradation of what happens in the bottle during that time.So in the drink, dump, sell/save game, it's a dump?I've bartended off and on since I was 21.

That said, the Tia Maria was very well made back in the day and was probably superior to the current product. The alcohol content was likely at least 10% higher than what it is now, and was make with cane sugar then and who knows what now. I'm sure its ####### great but its not where I want my alcohol positions overloaded
That said, its freakin coffee liqueur. If u can get 150 for the bottle, grab it and buy 20 handles of Kamora to White russian yourself until the dudes come home.
The Beam is probably better than the swill they bottle now, but only because it probably 86 proof and a bit stronger,. Its still teh Tecate of the bourbon world.
The Cutty is a really nice blended scotch anyone should enjoy, alas its been abandoned by even the hippest of hipsters

cos> I really hate taking individual conversations to the JIMTAN but since you seem incapable of responding to text questions, I really need the names and email addresses of the two guys that we added to the league so I can get out an email about the auction in the next day or two.

Trying to decide if this new live blackjack on SB.com is more or less rigged. There's certainly more cleavage.

Thanks Cos!
This is the bottle I have. No clue where or how to sell booze. I feel like ebay won't allow it. http://www.masterofmalt.com/liqueurs/tia-maria/tia-maria-1960s-liqueur/

Ah, the Celebrity Centre (not misspelled). I used to live 2 blocks away from that. Pics of their pretentiously spelled sign should still be on my FB page. I used to sit across the street sipping coffee with wacko Hollywood characters at the Bourgeois Pig, watching that place for laughs. The security guards all looked like those big but flabby and socially inept losers you knew in high school, who ran away after graduation to join a cult. Tre amusant.Look outside your window.Things have gotten busy at work recently... I addition to daily meditation and journaling, we are currently in the planning stages for 4 sessions, one of which will last 6 months. I also spent almost the entire day yesterday setting up a video studio on the 5th floor of our building. Now I need to figure out how to use Final Cut so I can edit the videos I'll be shooting

You can sell the bottle to a collector. To be in pristine condition, the booze must be present, wink wink nudge nudge.Thwere may be a few people who would pay that for a bottle, biut not to you, as a stranger over then internet. sry
Throw in a Lebowski dvd, invite over a few friends with halfnhalf and vodka and have fun.
I've got 50 bottles of stuff that would fetch a 5-7grand or more according to the internet. I'd take 20% of that.
