 The Powerball Jackpot is over a billion dollars, everybody! You know what the lottery is? I've never played the lottery ever. That's because you understand that it is a tax on people who are bad at math. Hey, we'll go back to our stupid rags of Corbin. I'm Rick. You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter, from all juicy content. And threads. Thank you to everybody to be sports on Patreon. Follow us on Twitter, account, and subscribe to the like button. That's right. Yeah, you have a... You are 25,000 times more likely to hit a hole in one than you are to ever win the lottery. And 95% of people who win the lottery blow the money within five years because they don't know what to do with the money. I would like to win the lottery though. I just don't play. Yeah. So the chances are low. Well, your chances are just that much less than everybody else. True. Yeah. Uh, and... Today we're doing... What happened? Congratulations, India. And it might be 9 a.m. here, but we're drinking because it's somewhere else. It's somewhere. So that's a great shirt. It's somewhere else. Somewhere. The, uh, unbeknownst to me in whiskey news, uh, India, the Indian whiskey injury, which... We're, we're not... I guess, I guess Andrani made this one. Let, here's what I gotta tell you. Stupid family, beautiful stupid babies. How could you, how could you do this to us? How could you not let us know about what Corbin is about to say? Fun fact. Um, how? I'd never even heard of this one. Exactly. And I, when I... And we've been to India and had different kinds of alcohol. When I told people, like when I post about it on Twitter, no one had, like, there was not, the one person that was like, oh, this is really good because they had never had it before. Is it because this is for the hoity-toities? I don't know. It's, so it's like 55 bucks a year. Well, that's, that's expensive. That's freaking insane. But like here it's not though. No, here that's a quality mid-range beverage. Obviously I don't know what that would equate to, what it would be in... I can tell you, you want to know? But it wouldn't be the same price because there's an import tax here, so... True, but that's roughly 4,000 rupees. Yeah. That's insane. You guys have to let us know, but... So that's probably why. If an Indian whiskey won... I was just kidding about being disappointed. The, um, world's best whiskey? World's best whiskey? I'm gonna try it, and I looked at it. Of course. I didn't have a lot of hope, but I looked it up and it was in a store, like a total wine and more, right down the road. And so... So we got it. I bought it. And it's 9 a.m. here, folks. And I was like, ah, we'll just do a review. But that makes it 9.30 p.m. because we haven't fallen back in India. So it's drinking time. While I get it ready, I want you to read this for me real quick. Okay. This little article. An Indian whiskey has been crowned the world's best whiskey. The Inri Diwali Collector's Edition 2023 has been awarded as the best whiskey in the world at the Whiskies of the World Awards. This accolade marks a milestone in the global recognition of Indian whiskies with the Inri Diwali Collector's Edition 2023 out shining hundreds of renowned brands from around the world. Yeah, get on here now. Yeah, that's right. Keep going. This Indian single malt beat international brands, including Scotch, Bourbon, Canadian, Australian and British single malts. The Inri Diwali Collector's Edition 2023 is a product of Piccadilly distilleries. Say that 10 times fast. A company that has consistently demonstrated its commitment to quality and brewing things in the nude. And innovation in the whiskey industry. It was awarded the double gold best in show from smoky whispers, just like in the bedroom, to a symphony of flavors, just like in the bedroom. It's a masterpiece that's now reached the pinnacle of recognition with the best in show. Double gold award at Whiskies of the World Awards 2023. This Diwali. Let the celebration begin with a dram of this limited Diwali Collector's Edition. The caption of the Instagram post shared by the company. The award-winning whiskey is crafted in the Himalayan or Himalayan, if you prefer. Foothills using six-row barley handpicked in Rajasthan and fresh glacier water and the sweat of Nawazid and Siddiqui's left foot from the Yamuna River. It is then aged in Pedro Pascal's pants, which imparts a dark amber hue and sweet current like notes to the whiskey. And so probably why it won Pedro's very popular these days. So also this might not be a correct assessment either because this is not the 2023 Collector's Edition. Ah. It is the single malt. So it's the same malt. I wonder, do you think single malts ever get married? I don't know. So if this was like this bottle wasn't available, but I don't know if it's a different whiskey either. At first blush, I appreciate the peacock. Yeah, I'd like the peacock. It actually looks Japanese. I think that's just like the bottle that came out with this here because it's the same single malt one. It's a different bottle. Different bottle. Single malt. All right. So we'll drink it. It has a nice amber hue. It has a good smell. Not to be confused with amber herd. It has a good smell to it. It does not smell like amber herd. No, it smells like a whiskey though. That's good. That's a good intro to the world's best whiskey, that it would smell like a whiskey. It's good. It does have a smoky. It does have a nice smoky smell. Not as smoky as a lagovulin, which is a lagovulin I've given you some of it. Lagovulin? Lagovulin. Ron Swanson in Parks and Rec drink. Oh. It literally tastes like a campfire. Your mom tastes like a campfire. Salud. Slouch. Ooh. That has some really interesting notes to it actually. There's a lot going on there. That's really, that's really, really tasty. Really, really nice. It doesn't sting too bad. It's got a smooth flavor, but also interesting like there's a lot going on. A lot going on and it's really balanced. There isn't any one thing that is singularly standing out. It's a little smoky. It's a little smoky. It's smoky. It's a little peppery. Little peppery. It goes down quite easy. It has a sweetness, but it's not too sweet. It has that warmth of a whiskey does in your chest. This is pretty damn good. And we're not like, obviously the people that judge a whiskey company are like, we're not. No, spit it out. We are trailer parked trash compared to those folks. Well, I'm Irish, so I have some qualifications. Well, I have a little Irish in me too. Shut up. Shut up. So like, this is just, does that taste good? Yeah, that tastes good. I must say. I'm not a sommelier. No, I must say that if I wanted, so I doubt I'll ever find a whiskey more drinkable and enjoyable for me just on a daily basis to just have some whiskey than Jameson. Yeah. I just, it is, it is by far. This one though, if I was inviting people over and I really, or if I wanted to gift a whiskey to someone that it really, I wanted them to be impressed. Yeah. This is impressive. It's good flavor. I really like this a lot. See, like Jameson is one of, it's my favorite. It's just, there's better whiskeys. Correct. Like in terms of like higher class, but in terms of like just drinking, you could mix it, you could do whatever you want with it. Agreed. It's so versatile. It's so delicious. It's delicious. It's my staple whiskey. I'm with you. I don't go lower than Jameson. Like I don't go to Jack Daniels. The only time I've ever gone to Jack Daniels is when I really wanted some whiskey and I didn't have a lot of time and there was no Jameson there and so I just got a tiny little thing of Jack to have something. It also, Jack works well in like just if you want to have a Jack and Coke. This, I'm sure it would be delicious in a Jack and Coke, but I'm not sure I would mix this. I wouldn't mix this. This is too much going on. It is very much like a scotch in that it's just, it doesn't take me on the journey a scotch takes me but it's still really, really nice that I wouldn't want to dilute it with anything. It'd be interesting to see what difference it makes when you put it on ice over time as you're sipping. Yeah. And I'm wondering like if this one in like it's price range, obviously. So like I'm sure there's tastes way more expensive. A thousand dollar whiskey. Yeah. That would probably be a thousand percent better and I've tasted whiskies that I think are better in terms of but they're like crazy expensive whiskies. Or scotches. Yeah, scotches as well. That's a whole different category. This is better than say a young like an eight-year-old or a 12-year-old McCallan. I like this better. Yeah. It's quite tasty. I'm really nice. I'm glad it... Because sometimes obviously stuff will win awards and it's because the hoity-toities like they're like, oh this has such complexity but it tastes like dirt or it's like, oh such a complex dirt flavor. And it is just straight up, it's gold, man. The color on that thing is just beautiful gold. Why is it... What language is that? Because that looks more kind of Chinese than... It looks... It says Rajasthan, right? It's when it was a barley handpicked in Rajasthan. It's odd because I'm used to seeing for example most Indian languages being... Where's this river? Where's the Yamuna River? I'm used to seeing most Indian languages go, you know, horizontal. Yeah, what language is that on the bottle there? No color added, that's good. 92 proof, smell, taste, touch, sight, sound. Ooh. Oh, so the name... Did you read that in the thing? Which? The five... Indria? Yeah. Indri in Sanskrit refers to the five senses in Indria. My suspicion then is that Sanskrit. Sanskrit, yeah. Okay. That would be my suspicion. That would make sense. And it would make sense that... I mean, I haven't done this yet. Ooh, it's like the ocean. I need to touch it. You did when it went in your mouth, Corbin. You do that often? Yeah, the discharge on this group. This is impressive. Very happy. Because you're right. This is not a sponsored review, by the way. Just because... We don't do those. We don't do that. Just because any kind of a drink or spirit is expensive or wins an award doesn't mean it's worth anything. Yeah, I would have to try the other ones, too. It's all what your personal palate really likes. Normal people's palates are not people that judge whiskey's palates at all. Not at all. Just like my brother is a sommelier. And so what he likes is not what everybody else likes. His palate is insane because that's what he does for a living and he's hoity-toity. Well, even a sommelier, they could differentiate and say what they say is a better kind of a wine but it may not be the one that they have as their go-to drink that they enjoy. Exactly. But yeah. Impressive. Absolutely delicious. Impressive. If you've tried it before, obviously let us know what you thought about it. And what is the cost of this bad boy in India, guys? I would hope it's not that expensive. On Twitter, I did not encounter one person, I believe, that had tried it before. So I'm assuming it's more of like an expensive India. If it's 55 here, granted, the tax on it, right? Yeah. It wouldn't have an import tax there. But if that bad boy is, you know, 2,000 rupees. Because a bottle of Jameson, this bottle of Jameson, same size, I believe was like 40 bucks, I think. Yeah. This is about 40 bucks. Roughly. But no, I mean, they're actually... No, that's a smaller one. That would be closer on sale. Like, that would be closer to like 22, 23. Is it? The small bottles are like 22, 23. I don't remember what it was. The bigger size bottles, like that size, would be comparable. It'd be like 40 bucks. Got you. Yeah. As would really nice tequila's. Like Casamigos Rapasado is a really nice tequila. It's about the same price as this. But that was delicious. If you tried it, let us know what you thought about it. Yeah. And congratulations. Congrats, India. Some of you probably had no idea. But congratulations. Corbin just wanted an excuse to drink in the morning. Yep. Josh!
