This. But I can't afford good whisky, so I just work late on Fridays and wait for my boss to open his cupboard :p

Bourbon is overly sweet trash, but a good scotch is hard to beat. There are some excellent ryes too.
Unpopular opinion: beer tastes like chicken feed, but some bourbon is good.

FYI: Bourbon is a kind of whisky.
I bet it is. Somewhere along the line, when you were a young sprat, you observed someone you looked up to, who was enjoying a social drink, and later it took you more than a few attempts to "enjoy" doing the same.
I bet it isnt. I rarely drink alcohol. It was never a major feature in my world growing up. But there are a handful of drinks I really enjoy when I do occasionally indulge.

Try bourbon with apple cider. Thank me later
When I hear “bourbon and whisky”… it’s like saying “cats and animals are kept as pets.” Zoological tips about the latter are appreciated just as much as spirit advice about the former. (-:

so youre saying an aquired taste is actually someone pretending to like something? what im hearing from you: "i dont like the taste of alcohol therefor no one else does"
Most alcohol is an acquired taste. I mostly hate all liquor and only like beer and wine. I'll do some mixed drinks sometimes but I mostly hate them. I hated Guinness the first time I had it when I was 18. Bought we bought a case and figured it was so damn expensive that we were going to muscle through it. A few years later, it became one of my favorite beers. I still like Guinness today.
No, I actually drink alcohol myself. I'm just reflecting on the psychology of taste acquisition - the process, not the end result.
