Some people are cheap cocktails, and some people are good whiskey. Cheap cocktails might have whiskey in them, but it’s usually bottom shelf. They need to be dressed up, they need something else added to them. A good whiskey can stand alone.
Good whiskey people have a certain quality to them. You can tell quality when you see it. You can hang your hat on the relationship you have with a good whiskey person and you can always count on them. They are the same today, tomorrow, and next week.
They might not be the life of the party, but they’re solid as oak. You can talk with a good whiskey person for hours and have a better understanding of them, and yourself, at the end of it.
Cheap cocktail people need everything to go right for them to be fun to be around. If they’re missing one ingredient they just aren’t the same, and they’re volatile because of it.
You need a certain amount of energy to be around cocktail people, but if you’re in the mood for it, they can be a lot of fun. It’s hard to get past surface level conversations with cocktail people because they’re hiding behind a mixture of ingredients and they aren’t sure who they really are.
You can talk with them for hours without hearing them say much of anything.
Cocktail people can be a lot of fun as long as you expect them to be cocktail people. We run into trouble when we start expecting good whiskey characteristics from a cocktail person.
