Bout.............oh, a hundred years or so ago.

A finger in a rocks glass is about a 1.5 ounce pour.

I remember bags of weed measured in fingers but when did liquids start using that unit of measurement? I thought it was measured in shots or oz.

my father had a great move when asked how much he wanted poured. he'd say "two fingers" and would hold up his hand, fingers horizontal, with the index and pinkie out.

Works out to four fingers for the conceptual thought challenged readers.

'twas a wonderful match. I may have to repeat it myself later this evening. I'm taking my bottle over to my buddies.
His kids are in bed by then, the wives will be gabbing while Gordo and I delve into this bottle.

I haven't had it yet, but I've heard nothing but good things about it.



What I really want to try is some George T Stagg.



Still on a bourbon kick thanks to Ron's 'Garrison Brothers' Recommendation.

just my opinion, but I like to pair Elmer with maduros, but even more with one that has a bit of bite or strength.
Though I'd smoke anything with bourbon.
