Food and Drink Rank alcohols for me. - Page 14

**Rain Man** · 11-01-2018, 10:48 AM

Okay, I'm not a drinker so maybe this is obvious, but it's not obvious to me.

There are all sorts of alcohol - beer, wine, whiskey, bourbon, rum, scotch, gin, vodka, tequila, port wines, and so on.

I recognize that there are probably big differences in brand quality within those major categories. Bud Light is different than some German monk artisanal brand. But put that aside. Let's just think about categories ACROSS types of alcohol.

What's the hierarchy of quality or prestige or whatever? Is gin generally "better" than rum? Is scotch "better" than bourbon? Is wine "better" than tequila?

Can someone give me a top to bottom rank of the "best" alcohol down to the "worst" alcohol?

Beer is king with me. I'll drink wine with a nice dinner. Scotch or Irish whiskey on a cold night, straight up. Every once in a while I'll do a screwdriver or margarita.

You eat brunch, watch some football, take a nap, start drinking again.
