I need Assassin's Mark brand bourbon.

EDIT: Alternatively, I would accept "Meet your Maker" Mark brand bourbon.

I would recommend that any drink suggestions come with appropriate flavoring text to help out the GMs. There seem to be a lot of drinks that don't have any taste when initially released.

Pretty pretty pretty please. I'm the one who comes up with most of the food/drinks and their flavor messaging. When it comes to alcoholic beverages I'm completely lost, as I've never had a drink of any of it in real life. I just wiki stuff and hope I come up with something acceptable based on the info I find there.

Tips: Don't have the messaging say anything about how the flavor is perceived by the drinker. For instance, don't say something is "delicious" or "not very good", as opinions vary (there are a few exceptions, like I think the grog in Emleth says outright that it's nasty, but that's a special case). For the most part, one person might think a drink is nasty, while another might think the same drink is great. Try to keep it descriptive only, things like if it's bitter or has a slight tartness to it, or if it's fizzy or watery, hints of honey or apples, stuff like that.

Assassin's Mark bourbon

Light and sweet flavor with a hint of oak graces your palate as you take a sip, leaving an intense burning sensation behind as it slides down your esophagus.

gullet?

Sounds less clinical and stuff to me. Means esophagus though.

Awesome description otherwise.
