Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey

[Bob H.]

I saw this for the first time at our local grocery today. Wonder is it is supposed to taste like the candy cinnamon fireball?
Has anyone ever seen this or tried it before?

My wife loves the stuff, tastes like the candy fireball. Keep it in the freezer.

it's good but really sweet - about 70 proof I think. To me, it has too much sugar to drink more than one or two. I've mixed up an imitation & put it in a glass of apple juice a time or two.

this is another one that I made after a pretty girl bought me a shot of it at the bar:

It's pretty popular here, but don't confuse shooting whiskey and fireball. You'll drink too much fireball before you feel it, and you know what that means. Keep it in your freezer

Darn good stuff. Dangerous, but good. Looking for something to cook with it.

I like that.... But this is a lil step up ... From a local small batch moonshine Distellery

This stuff used to show up in the mid-late 90s: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldschläger

It's ok if you don't want to drink real whisky and instead want to drink propylene glycol.

Wow Dave, a little harsh don't ya think.
I've tried it several times and think it's pretty good. Even have a bottle in the cabinet..(I think) it's pretty good if you mix it with a bottle of Angry Orchard or Redds Apple Ale. Good stuff for an occasional break from the norm.

Maybe I will stick with Jack, a little more money but I know where it comes from.

 

[Dave from Denver]

I don't think it's harsh. Fireball is gross, IMO. And PG is generally regarded as safe but that doesn't mean I want to seek it out. Not unlike most food additives.

If you want sweet whisky, you can have yourself an old fashioned. But you know, horses for courses and I know that people love this stuff. It's just not for me.

I have tried it, many, many moons ago, I was with this exotic dancer (stripper actually) one night, but that's a story all to it's own but I also now don't feel so bad about doing Pickleback .. in beer even ..

It's nasty, just skip it if you want something sweet and reach for the G&T:

 

[Dave from Denver]

Leo that looks so good and it's only 945AM!

 

[Todd Phillips]

chicks love the stuff! I can't even stand the smell. I guess I'am old school! Ill just stick with the backcountry Whiskey and Bourbon makers

I don't think you can call it "whiskey." I believe it is colored & flavored vodka.
