Those who describe whiskey as their hobby and the silly things they do in pursuit of bottles of whiskey; mostly driven by fear of
missing out, lack of
knowledge or the need to post 'impressive' unopened bottles on
social media. While not relegated to those new to whiskey drinking and collecting, “tater” activity tends to be strongest with that group.
That whiskey tater camped out
overnight at the
liquor store for chance to buy a bottle of Pappy Van Winkle bourbon.
He started his own blog so brands would send him
free sample bottles of whiskey; what a tater.
