My turbo-nerd rating system:
After my tasting notes I usually give a score to the whisky. After some thoughts I decided to fully embrace my nerd Star Wars lover side me grouping the scores in the following categories:
Jar Jar: under 65. Please avoid that.
Stormtrooper: 66 to 70. Missing the mark.
Ackbar: 71 to 75. Interesting, but it might be a trap.
Boba Fett: 76 to 80. Try it before you hire it.
Han: 81 to 85. Great quality. Chewie, we are home.
Luke: 86 to 90. Awesome, much more than a new hope.
Darth Vader: 91 to 95. We are among the Chosen Ones.
Yoda: 96 to Mad Max. Legendary this stuff is.
