Whoa! :lol: ...is this a case of "Don't drink and post!" ?

Are you referring to that I even seem surprised that folks think that, or...

In any case, in the spirit of continued clarification:

I was/am very specifically talking about the possibility that the rate of release of a concoction on the tongue has an effect on one's ability to savor all its flavors. And that the "thinking too much about details like this spoils all the fun!" crowd might deem musings such as this too pedantic - while to me and others, they are just as fun as simply drinking, partying and collecting Tiki, which I enjoy also.

Kon Hemsby, I am happy to hear about your findings, and do not only include the LONG sipping straws, but also the short, Mai Tai glass sized stirrers especially.

And jokeiii: Thinking about it now, most Tiki concoctions really should not have fruit chunks in them anyway...or has that effectively changed in the "New Cocktailian" era? - Hey!, let's start a thread about that! :)
