Saw this post by Bloomberg business and found it laughable. I’ve only really gotten into whiskey, specifically bourbon over the past year or so but I’ve never really thought of the color as a driving factor in what I choose or what drives a bottles value

In most cases, darker equals older. Older is rarer, most expensive, and more desirable. Not everyone thinks about color with age, or cares about age in general, but can’t say I disagree with the image you shared.

It’s bad advice for newbies. Because newbies aren’t comparing MacCallan 10 Port to MacCallan 30 Port. They’re comparing against significantly different products from different distilleries and wrongly assuming Distiller X is better because the bottle in hand is darker than Distiller Y.

Alright grill me I don't care. But I matched with a guy on an app and we have great conversations. However, after going on a few dates with him, it's obvious he looks nothing like his pictures. He has grown his hair out a lot and grown king facial hair and it's just not what I was into when we matched? I really thought he looked different and something about his hair being long and so greasy makes it hard for me to be into him. I know I sound awful but what do I do / say?
