This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

...we have about two hundred opened single malt whiskies and it takes us years and years to finish any one bottle; two or three wee drams are usually plenty to review fairly, maybe twice if we want to come back another day for a second opinion...
But if you buy and try a new bottle every other day and don't finish it, they will pile up over time and eventually go bad. The amount you buy must be equal to the amount you drink in the long term.
...whisky really doesn't ever go bad as long as the bottle is sealed; we use teflon plumber's tape around the neck for long-term storage but there are other solutions, too...
