Welcome to the wacky world of MMA Social Media.
Here is a round-up of the happenings in the matrix, these past few days.

Conor though out of the blue, went on a blithering rant on Whisky.
“Thank you for this message. I recognize and respect Tennessee as solid whiskey distillers. Your methods of aging whiskey over 2 years, and in charred brand new barrels however, is a crime where I come from. Using corn, rye or wheat over grain is another conversation altogether . However, forgetting your choice of ingredients, whatever they are, you must let those ingredients age sufficiently. Allow the ingredients the correct time to age and allow them to age in barrels as old as Whiskey itself. They deserve time to reach their maximum flavor potential. We do not even know what American whiskey truly tastes like, because to gage a correct and fair opinion of it, it needs to be given the correct and fair time to age.Thank you for this message however, I appreciate it and it motivates me to continue. I respect your state, and your land, and I will be in Tennessee in the very near future. Along with all of the other major states of the United States of America. I will be there with my own Irish made Whiskey for you all. I look forward to engaging more in this debate and introducing you to my master creation.”
Time will tell whether his upcoming whisky line ‘Notorious‘ will be a ‘master creation‘, but one thing is for sure, that he is a master promoter.
