That's what I want

I love watching interviewees kick Jon Stewart's ass. And tonight he literally fell off his chair, Bonnie Hunt kicked him so hard.
And Jesus Christ $900 THOUSAND dollars in foil in the freezer? "African Art"? Why has this guy not been censured yet?

So does anybody know of a good alcohol tutor, on the web or otherwise? I stare at the bottles of silver, gold, black, and god knows what all else classifications of tequila, and Captain Morgan's alone has like seventeen different varieties of rum that aren't obvious, like 'citrus essence' or 'island flavor' or 'sour apple' or something.

Actually, there's a difference between gold and anejo. Gold is sold to Americans who don't know that anejo is the good stuff, so they can charge more for the gold than they can get for the silver.

Anejo is the good stuff, gold is fake, and silver/blanco are mostly unaged. Black looks like another marketing gimmick to me, and reposado is between silver/blanco and anejo, in that it's aged but less than the anejo.

In terms of taste, the silver/blanco will be a clean, crisp taste if done right. Anejo and to a lesser extent reposado, will have more complexity of flavor due to the aging process.

I still know crap about vodka, though.
