When I was little, my entire conception of alcohol was garnered from what I observed on TV and in the movies. I became accustomed to seeing distinguished gentleman pouring each other a drink from decorative whiskey decanters and watching them sip their potent potables on the rocks. This seemed enjoyable to them, so I assumed that alcohol must have a sweet and appealing flavor.

Due to my disillusioned concept of alcohol, I naively thought that I could take my first drink on the rocks and that it would taste great. Needless to say, I was humiliated when I ordered a whiskey on the rocks for my first drink and was forced to spit out my first sip. Since then learning the truth about the acrid taste of most alcohol, I proceed with more caution.
