Hi there guys.
During the last weekend of march (28-29) the company i work for had a container loaded with whiskey stolen from their parking lot.
The company lost that contract and so 3 drivers lost their job.

If some of you come across some **FIRE*BALL** whiskey cinnamon flavor...from the blackmarket off course
Please call the police and/or contact me so i can tell my boss.

Thanks for reading!
 
I didn't see any down here. But I do have a question... Who would steal cinnamon flavored whiskey? ::)

Dude thats the question we've been having ever since we do that client.
But apparently Cinnamon whiskey its super hot in the states but not here in Qc, Canada.

Actually its a really cheap whiskey..nothing fancy.

But what do i know i dont drink!
 
Well I don't know anybody that drinks cinnamon flavored whiskey.  But I think we should all be honored that the first place you came to when you found out about stolen whisky is GroupDIY!

It's like being a pirate!

How many G's in Yarrrgh Matey?
 
yes, actually they open others containers that thought to be loaded with drinks.
however it was loaded with fender strat cases....they were not musicians!

alcohol here is managed by the state so its another thing.
 
There's a bizarre "popularity" around here for "cinnamon flavored" things.

The trouble is, that none of it tastes ANYTHING like cinnamon, to me. -I quite like cinnamon, but I cannot abide the disgusting taste of these "cinnamon" flavored candies, and "cinnamon" scented brooms (Holy crap... what IS it with these "cinnamon brooms" that appear in all of the supermarkets around here when fall/autumn comes around?). -Those brooms offend my nose from a distance of about a hundred feet; quite enough to cause me to AVOID stores which stock large numbers of them.

I wouldn't mind, but to me it doesn't even smell OR taste a damn thing like cinnamon, but people seem to lap it up as if they can't tell the difference, or are prepared to accept the difference... -Perhaps it's one of those things -like cilantro- where some people have the ability to detect something which they perceive as foul, where others don't, and I'm one of the few cursed with the gene to be repulsed?

Which brings me to another pet peeve (oh bugger... you've got me started!). -Apple pie.

Apple pie -when done well- is an utter joy. I've tasted more bad ones than good over the years; bad texture pastry (frequently soggy on the inside), frequently under (or-over) sugared, but the most common sin I encounter since moving to the US is sousing the filling with cinnamon. -Again let me say I like cinnamon, and I do appreciate a hint of cinnamon in an apple pie, but just about every pie I've had over here tastes primarily of -in order- 1) cinnamon,  2) sugar, and -finally- 3) apple. -It's a very poor stat... and that's before we even get to challenges such as the TEXTURE of the apple after baking. -Why not be honest and call them "sweet cinnamon pies with a faint hint of apple"?. -And when some low-cost mass-market versions are made with 'artificial cinnamon flavor', the result is simply heinous, there's no other word.

Grrrrr... how did I get onto this? -Oh yes.... Cinnamon whiskey.

I've never tasted the stuff, though I've seen it -legitimately- for sale. -However, I'm almost certain that it contains no cinnamon, and likely no cinnamon derivatives. -I bet it's that foul "cinnamon flavor" added to so-so whiskey. The idea repulses me... Although, if I do encounter any illegitimate stuff (I don't really move in the kind of circles where I'm likely to) I'll certainly report it.
 
Cinnamon Wiskey, that's weird, but i've tasted a wisky where my friend had a licorice root inside the bottle, i think it gave to it some edge, not bad at all, well if you like licorice...
Actually now that you mention the bad small of chemical cinnamon, too bad component companies didn't add some of that or else in resistors, could have help taking that awful smell that lasts for days when burnt, some would even use that as quick "lab encens" i'm sure hahaha
 
Must be a chick thang, no surprise it is popular in the states.  They are marketing wine to beer drinkers by making evil-looking labels- Goats blood merlot and like silliness.

You have an alcohol society?  Can foreigners join? 
 
We can buy wine and beers from any store but not whiskeys or rums or hard drinks.
for that you need to go to what they call SAQ Societe des alcohols du quebec..

Its like the state handling and making money on drunk people!
 
> what they call SAQ Societe des alcohols du quebec..

In Pennsylvania, and I think in New Hampshire, "State Store" (state-owned liquor store).

Maine does not run its retail liquor sales but does "own" (contract-out) the wholesale distribution.

Some of this is the after-effect of Prohibition. States voted to allow liquor back in but under tight control. Of course they also loved the high profit margin on liquor. Maine is re-negotiating its liquor contract to raise money to pay its hospitals which are full of (among other things) booze-related illness and injury.
 
Well the state making money on drunk people has a certain canadian cheerfulness... Our states make money on the poor through state gambling ( lotteries ).
 
Russia used to get 40% of their income from Vodka, no wonder they do not like AA,

US also, so when prohibition hit, they had to think fast and invent income tax,

500,000 deaths a year in Russia from the deadly juice,

my brother and his friend broke the seal on a loaded  boxcar one time, which i think is a federal offense, their eyes popped out when they saw that the car was stuffed with cases of wine, after a few micro seconds of deliberation, they started the offloading process into the nearby brush, when they went to pick it up in the jeep that night , a couple of flashlights came walking down the tracks,

FBI!  With a big dog!

they hid in the brush and the dog and men walked right on by, so they loaded up the jeep and proceeded to get hungover on alter wine,  :eek:
 
One time when I had to dial up an ISDN line into Russia and no one was picking up , [ or turning it on ]
the Russian contact with me said with a straight face , they are probably drunk everyone is depressed.

On top of all that here in quebec we're taxed 15% on everything...
We're socialists with the worst roads...

You can walk across the street and buy a Partagas Series D no. 4

You're people have the most lovely deferential way about them, which is really nice.

And streets go bad everywhere it is cold...

And really there is nothing like the way your people, (ladies in particular) say About and House... killer.


(By the way... Partagas does not make a cinnamon flavour cigar... thank heaven)
 
Cinnamon cigar?
This governement has been drowning us in corruption.
problem with fhe roads its not the weather..its the fact that they never fix them..
but thats another problem.
