Honestly I find most liquors are easy enough to substitute for the average drinker.
Yeah if you’re some kind o whiskey connoisseur that drops hundreds or even thousands on bottles there’s maybe a difference. But for the average sub $100 you’ll easily find a substitute just moving within a similar price point
Depending on the person beer can be a bit harder, but not impossible by any means
Maybe I’m not the right person to have started the conversation I guess. I’ve got a 500€ bottle of single barrel Scotch here, and a lot of her lesser sisters. This rhymes to a less insane degree with gin, rum, tequila and various European fruit distillations. Then there’s the wine, and since I’ve been friend-dopted by my best vineyard owners, this game has improved a lot as well.
I do enjoy stuff like this, and it’s quite a journey to find what you’re into.
For a mixer I wouldn’t go into so much detail, of course.
We absolutely do make competitors that rival Scottish single malt, we just don’t copy them. I understand it’s fashionable to shit on everything American but you would do well to avoid sinking into outright bigotry
You make nothing that rivals Scottish single malt.
You would do well to avoid tone policing. concentrate more on domestic sales, to compensate for the international sales that you’re never getting back.
You realize you are speaking to a person right? Again, sliding into actual bigotry where you’re hate blinds you to reality. We have several distilleries, most in blue states mind you, that compete and even win against Scottish single malts
What is happening is shunning, and it is happening as a direct consequence of your POTUS.
You may be miffed, but the fact of the matter is that you do not distil a single spirit that the rest of the world requires. Anything distilled in the United States is utterly replaceable by something as good, or better from elsewhere.
You’re going on and on about the quality of what’s distilled on American soil, with no understanding of what actually makes it distasteful.
No, it’s bigotry I’m something of an expert at identifying it being Indigenous. I never said you couldn’t replace American spirits, that’s entirely you, I just stated the objective fact that we make world class spirits. Frankly you seem to be the only one angry and spewing hate. He’s not my president either, I voted against him. And please enlighten me about the inherent distastefulness of our spirits I’m sure your reasoning is entirely logical

Two things.
Americans don’t produce anything as good as a single malt scotch.
Scotland would never spontaneously shred their international reputation the way America has, so international scotch sales will be safe in perpetuity.

It only feels like bigotry to you.
