One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

I've not heard of it before now. I might have to visit a liquor store and try it out.
I have tried a few nice Japanese whiskeys, the best part is, they aren't normally very expensive, so I am interested to see if it may be more expensive than the rest.

The article lists a price of 150 pounds per bottle. I'm not really into expensive whiskey (I drink Jack, shoot Jameson, and mix Seagram 7 so I'm really on the low end), but that sounds expensive to me.

Old_School is in Japan, where it is made, so it is likely to be much cheaper!

My local has Japanese whiskey for about double the price of 12yr old Glenlivet. I'd like to taste some via the expense account before springing for a bottle.
