The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Irish Coffee

Inviting drink
Requires time I think
Intoxicating taste lets not waste
Smooth cream
Helps it go down like a dream

Coffee and whiskey
Outrageously risky
Fire on the taste buds and
Furnace in the tummy
Exceptionally yummy
Eire's elixir wow what a mixture

I love coffee. So I can appreciate the imagery of how yours feels going down. I think I'll stay with mine since I don't drink. Nicely done.

I am unfamiliar with acrostic poetry but this one went down as smooth as silk..I'm not much of a drinker due to scotch-irish genetics but do like to get one every now and then..yum..

I’m not a coffee person but if you add a bit of whisky I might be converted.
