All alcohol sucks from a taste perspective. Literally everything from a wine cooler up to Everclear or in between. Nobody would choose to drink any of it if it wasn't for the effects of alcohol itself.
I'd object that too, because there are so many types of alcohol and so many drinking experiences. Yes, maybe you don't chug alcoholic drinks like juice or something, but we don't do that with coffee or tea either. It's all very contextual. What kind of experience do you want? And what, if anything, are you eating with it?
A crisp pinot gris paired with something creamy or a little cheesy is the perfect combination. The acidity of the wine cuts through the salt of the meal to refresh you palette between bites. And the salt of the dish takes the understated sweetness of the wine and really makes it blossom.
Then there's the mouthfeel of a lot of these drinks. Beyond the sparkling or carbonated drinks, there's the thickness of the drink, or the way a swallow of good tequilla seems to vapor off the tongue like ether while a low heat kind of lingers in your diaphragm.
There are so many ways to enjoy what we eat or drink, to narrow it down exclusively to taste feels kind of like missing out. There are so many experiences out there in the world of alcohol beyond just drunkenness.
Im not sure about that, everything Ive been around had the same horrid smell to it regardless of the type of alcohol or the supposed quality. ---
