S'funny... I've noticed the same thing about quality cigars. It got to the point where if I want to have something to pass around to friends I'll get something cheaper and lighter-weight so that I don't feel that I've wasted the good stuff on 'em.

I'm having my first Tiki party with me making real beverages this weekend, so I'm curious about what it'll be like. Of course, I'm LOVING all of these vintage drinks with their perfect proportions of sweetness, sting, mellowness, spice, etc., but I do wonder if guests will enjoy them as much as I do. If folks would rather something less complex and more sweet, I guess I'll have to concede and console myself with the fact that I'll get to enjoy the good stuff on my own.

Ultimately, in throwing a party I want my guests to have fun, no matter what form of imbibing they want to do, but I admit I will be disappointed if folks don't dig the stuff I've practiced slinging, and that I hold in such high regard...
