    Ah yes, a cat that knows the refined taste of Evan Williams, the only bourbon to taste like banana peels.

    Just typing the name, my stomach started gurgling up some PTSD flashbacks

      It’s not that bad, it’s a notch below Jack Daniels, which doesn’t set the bar very high. I wouldn’t sip either of them but they both go nicely with (diet) coke imo.

        I tried someone’s cocaine a while ago and said “this smells way more like bananas than fuel”

        They sent me an article years later about a ridiculous amount of cocaine being seized Ina shipment of bananas. They were confounded as to how I picked that up

        An internet search lead me to discover its a chemical compound called isoamyl acetate that’s commonly found in some whisky. Maybe some of us are more sensitive to it?
