What I will waste words on is a weird quirk of the booze industry.
If you know an experienced bartender and pick their brain, they'll tell you of least one lower-priced bourbon out there that's better, and not as sickly-sweet. An old bar coworker explained that X brand of cheap whiskey (the stuff the bars put in the "speed rack" that's referred to as "well whiskey" and is what you get if you order a base-price mixed drink and don't specify a preferred brand of booze in it) is actually out of the same barrels as higher priced Y whiskey, in many instances.
I remember Beam 8 Star being one such, speaking of bourbons, if you're into that shit. It's actually from the same barrels as some other more expensive and heavily marketed bourbon (that ISN'T Jim Beam, oddly enough) whose name I can't recall. They just put 8 Star in a bottle/label that screams of soup kitchens and Greyhound stations, and sell it in mass quantities to bars and the ghetto corner liquor stores. Due to it not being marketed, Jim Beam (or whatever conglomerate that owns them) makes the same amount of money on it. It's actually a pretty canny revenue diversification type thing, where they'll make more on either end, depending on market demand.
Also, suck my dick, Gunt, we know you are drinking cheaper shit anyway, whether you show the bottle on air or not. You broke, broken, gunted liquorfag.
