Rather than write all about it and then spill the beans, I’m going to tell you up front:
Listerine is just a combination of 12-year-old scotch and toothpaste!
I came to this conclusion last night. Before going out for the evening, I enjoyed a glass of Glenfiddich 12 year, but then I decided it would be best to brush my teeth again before rolling out, lest I arrive with the smell of booze on my breath. This seemingly benign sequence of events led me to discover that the taste of toothpaste on top of scotch is eerily similar to all the mint-flavored mouth washes I have ever used.
At this point I have no intention of proceeding with further “taste tests” to prove my theory or of conducting further experiments with other “beverage + toothpaste” combinations, but watch out, I’ve already posted about orange juice and toothpaste and at this point I have no reason to believe that these circumstantial toothpaste-related discoveries are likely to abate.
What I am interested in is this: can I get a 12 year old single malt from Listerine? Nothing else matters!
Cheers,

Good question. I think we’ve stumbled across a great new project for the alchemists of the world.
Liam, Did I teach you nothing!!
@ Keir Bradie –
Normally, my co-editor and I hide behind our posts and don’t reveal who has written what. But for this post, I have to confess: it was Conall.
Keir, my boy, I spell whisky like I am from your corner of the world. I remember well my lessons, O tutor!
