I just threw out Kentucky Deluxe because it was the cheapest one I could think of. I don't understand spending that much more money on liquor if you're going to mix it with that much Coke. Seems like you wouldn't be able to taste the difference. If you drank it on the rocks on mixed with water, I'd understand the difference.
Great example, I heard a lady order a Grey Goose and Red Bull the other day. Why in the world would you pay that much more for vodka when there is absolutely no way you can taste the difference?
the bartender at mae's last night made fun of some guy for ordering 1776 and coke. it made me smile.
anyway, i can fully taste different vodkas when mixed. i don't like greygoose or absolut. love stoli and tito's. ketel one is meh, and the cheap stuff doesn't bother me.
in other whiskey news, i was at the casino a few weeks ago and was getting rum and diets and was half paked after a few and noticed they started tasting weird for like 3 of them and the waitress comes around and she's like "another jack and coke?" and that's when i realized why they tasted weird, but couldn't put my finger on it.
