minus-squarePlantJam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 month agoAre Jack and Laphroaig on similar levels? I know import vs domestic drives the prices apart some, but I just assumed Jack was more like a “cheap top shelf”.
minus-squareHayduke@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·1 month agoOh goodness me, no. Think Rose Art vs Crayola, respectively.
minus-squareMeekerThanBeaker@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 month agoThey seem like different animals to me. I wouldn’t compare the two. I can’t speak of higher end Jack, but Laphroaig base is far better than Jack base.
minus-squarePlantJam@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 month agoYeah that’s been my experience, too, which is why the comment comparing the two confused me.
minus-squareMeekerThanBeaker@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 month agoSomeone commented that it was the smell they were comparing… not the taste. I like peaty smell so didn’t make sense.

minus-squareSerinus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 month agoI’d buy some but it’s likely to be 150% more expensive by the time I get to it. I wonder what happens to the US economy if many citizens stop making large or discretionary purchases.
minus-squarefunkless_eck@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 month agono the joke is I like something that smells debateably awful.
