PhobiasWhat gives you the heebie-jeebies?
It's a bit strong to call this a phobia, but for me it's the thought of biting into a dry flannel. I've no idea why I'd ever want to or even get the opportunity to do so, seeing as I don't own one, but it makes my teeth hurt to think about it. *ewww*
Tell us what innocent things make you go pale, wobbly and send shivers down your spine.

Miles off topic, but relates to whisky!I've just had my brother phone me, he's a barman.
Over lunch, a young guy in a suit came into his bar, leading what looked to be some customers on a 'business lunch' (read: piss up)
My brother hears the guy waxing lyrical about how he's a big whisky drinker, you could almost call him a connoisseur. He then heads to my brother to get served, sidles up and says "Can i have a bells and coke please?"
At this point my brother just bit his tongue, served him, and let him sit down. Waited for the guy to take his first sip of the drink, before phoning me to tell me this story!
Moral of the story children - If you know whisky, you shouldn't drink bells, and coke with whisky? BIG no-no

AgreedDecent single malt (my preference is not too peaty) and a splash of water if desired.

...everyone knows my prediliction for Talisker etc. So good whisky + any kind of mixer is a no-no.
However, Jack Daniels and Ginger Beer (note: ginger beer, not ginger ale) is the drink of the gods.

What a waste^Proper Ginger Beer (Jamaican) should be served with Navy Rum and crushed lime over ice. Heaven.
Or a nice Highland Park. Or Lagavulin.

^I bought a bottle of highland park a week ago or so. Not a fan, tbh, there's not enough taste in it.

^I recommend it for those too girly for Laphroiagh, Laggers or Talisker, but who want something with a little more depth than Speyside.
