Reply to comment by FreneticPlatypus in Lawsuit claims mini bottles of Fireball Cinnamon don’t actually contain whisky by TheAngryBlackGuy

They are selling an identical looking product that has half as much alcohol. I didn’t even realize those things had half as much alcohol as the airplane bottle they sell in liquor stores. They were 100% screwing their customers. Who the hell wants a shot of whisky with 16.5% alcohol?

People that want to drink all night and brag about finishing off a bottle themselves, people that like the taste and don’t need the buzz to get all the way to falling down drunk, people that can’t be bothered to mix a drink and don’t want to do shots of straight liquor, etc. See there’s no accounting for taste - just because you don’t like something doesn’t mean that no one should. No one I’ve ever known is buying Fireball because they want a half decent whiskey or even a shitty flavored whiskey. They buy it because it’s cheap and easy.

Some people may not care but it’s deceptive. Change the label color so people know its a different product with 16.5% alcohol. No one else sells airplane bottles of booze with an inferior product that i know of except fireball.
