I can't stand gin - but make the martini that works for you.

Stay at home quarantined movie night ideas #2 ( warning - contains more alcohol ). Great for a stay at home Saturday - a John Wick triple feature with bourbon - preferably the Blanton's that John drinks. Every time John gets his ass kicked and drinks Blanton's, you drink ! Four Roses is good too, as is Buffalo Trace !

OK, bad joke.   quinine > Malaria drug > Covid-19

Stay at home quarantined movie night ideas #3 ( warning - contains excessive alcohol - ha ). Kingsman : The Secret Service / The Golden Circle Double Feature. Get all your single malts out - when someone in the movie drinks, you drink. Then get a new bottle to try. Damn they drink a lot! :-X ::)

I have a lot more single malts than pictured!

I have been drinking Gin Tonics for the quinine. ;)
I just heard a doctor on ABC saying that there is not enough quinine in today's tonic to make a differnce.

Of the above mentioned options, I have some Balvenie Caribbean Cask. I'll have to watch based on my limited stock of adult beverages.  8)

I hadn't re-watched Kingsman: The Secret Service since I setup my MadVR tone mapping HTPC.  So I took your advice and viewed it tonight.  Fun film and looks great.

I am only an occasional Scotch drinker and only keep one bottle on hand.  I usually drink Oban 14 year, but I decided to try their Little Bay since it was on sale.

Oban is good stuff. I too am only an occasional Scotch drinker, I just happen to have a lifetime supply handy. And rarely have a bunch of friends over to sip some on a movie night ! 

Kingsman is a hoot ! ;D

Nice.  I have the Statesman bourbon from the 2nd Kingsman movie.  Yummy.
