Could someone please explain the joy of Jagermeister?

[Urbane Guerrilla]

I've gotten puking drunk on bourbon and its liqueur derivative, Southern Comfort -- which is still pretty good either as fruitcake soak or over vanilla ice cream. The gin I like best is Tanqueray, which really smells of juniper berries and goes just fine with tonic water. I've managed not to drink malt Scotch so imprudently as the bourbon, and whisky sauces are known to Scottish cuisine.

Bad whiskey, however, is indeed no fun. When traveling to Thailand, avoid that burner fuel called Mekong brand whiskey. I learned a life lesson in my encounter with that no-cask-time stuff: never drink anything that only gets a lukewarm recommendation from an Australian infantryman!
