Weekend repport: Insomnia and alcohol
March 25, 2008
Time to let you know about my weekend, key words are in the title. It all started on thursday when I went to bunker up with alcohol. The plan was like this
*Party at my house friday night.
*Nöjesfabriken saturday night since we were signed as VIP’s.
The party here was a great deal of fun. I started halv past two and people started to drop in around four. W.A.S.P. played throughout the night with me screaming “Easy living”. Things went a little overhand when someone started pillaging my fruitbasket and threw mashed bannans in the kitchen. Altough, in the end it was quite fun. The majority of the people left around 2-3 AM but a few stayed through out the night and we talked about anything and everything. Especially Linn that entertained me with a few stories! Dawn came and I had only sleept 30 mintues. Not the smartest move I’ve ever made. A
Anyhow.. Andreas was still around 8 AM and helped me clean up the mess. Thanks Andreas! It all went on from there, shower, cooking some food, surf around at random websites and then easter dinner over at Kristians house. We got ready, downed some whiskey when the evening came. That’s about it for saturday. We partied and by the end of saturday night I had been up for 45 hours, with only 30 minutes of sleep to fuel my fire and had been partying two times.
“ZZZ” – Daniel
Jack Daniel’s (old #7)
March 25, 2008
As promised I’m here with another whiskey post. Almost everyone has something to say about this Lynchburg product. Some say it’s among the best things money can buy, some say it’s total crap and I don’t know any other whiskey that has been subject for this much debate. JD has a reputation of being THE rock ‘n’ roll whiskey and it’s true that rockers such as Nikki Sixx has consumed massive amounts of Jack and helped it gettin as big as it is today. To me that’s not really a bid deal if the drink I choose to drink is considered to be though or whatever.
Jack Daniel’s has maybe the most famous bottle shape and label of all whiskies in the world. A square shaped bottle with black label covered with white writing. It’s belivied that Jasper Newton “Jack” Daniel was only sixteen when he became a distiller, more about the history can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Daniel’s. Jack is a Tennessee whiskey, which is almost like bourbon with one exception. It’s filtered through charcoal. To my knowledge there is only one Tennessee whiskey and that is Jack Daniel’s, but don’t quote me on that.
The liquid has a golden color amber color. JD has a mellow taste with vanilla and fruity parts. I don’t know how to describe the taste really, except special with a lot of character. It’s way smoother compared to bourbon whiskeys like Jim Beam and Four roses due to the charcoal filtering. Well that’s about it.
Rock on!
