This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Agreed. I have about 20 open bottles of different whiskeys right now. I'll probably have a glass or two each week.
You can have a very robust collection of whiskey and also drink in moderation. I know when I buy a new bottle I'm excited to try it, and the seal usually doesn't last for longer than a day.
You can store whiskey for a very long time if the bottle is over halfway full. Keep them upright and away from the sun and they'll last for many years and still hold their taste. You might lose some due to evaporation though.
If you used to buy for a liquor store, you'll know Laphroaig 10yo is the absolute bottom level Laphroaig, it's a liquid tourist trap lol
I’m not one of those guys. That’s why I quit collecting and drinking whiskey. Sadly enough.
Same here, loved the single malt scotch a little too much. 2 1/2 years sober now
Even if he had only one drink every time, it's still a form of alcoholism to do so every single day (as the previous commenter alluded to). It'll still devolve into compulsive behavior.
