Sorghum Seed Whiskey

[CSA Today]

"Our next halt was at Lost Mountain, where every man was allowed a jigger of whiskey; but as it was made from sorghum seed it acted as a fine emetic, and oh! how sick we were. It was a pathetic sight to see at least five hundred men vomiting at the same time, and none able to assist his comrades. After getting rid of the stuff we soon felt well again."

It kinda reminded me of my navy days.

It reminded me of my college days.

During a long hot summer session road trip, a buddy found a very old bottle of peppermint schnapps under the back seat & started taking shots . . . ten minutes later it was not a pretty sight.

That even sounds NASTY.

I try very hard to limit a sip of whiskey to only days that have a y in them. Therefore, I prefer the whiskey made by the gentleman in the picture.

Southern Comfort for me. Just a little sipping is about all I can do anymore.
When I was much younger, Makers Mark was my choice. That stuff is smooth
as a mouses ear!
