Old fashioned, but not the way those weirdos in Wisconsin and Minnesota make it with brandy. Bizarre.

Bwar, single malt highland (neat), and blended scotch/whiskey/bourbon on the rocks are go-tos for me as well, though there are a handful of blended whiskys that don't need the rocks.
We have a lot in common.

What's the worst mixed drink that you can get? 

/Has to be something that you can order at a bar and that they'd be willing to serve, so no hazardous chemicals or toilet water or anything like that.

The bar I can think of offhand is gin and cranberry juice. I'm sure there's something lower I'm not thinking of, but that popped to mind quickly.

that has got to be one of the worst drinks if we confine to traditional spirits and mixers.    such a horrid clash.

Bourbon.  Mixed with either one large ice cube, or nothing.  Current favorite is Basil Hayden.

Tell us more. For example, I don't find chianti dry at all - at least the ones I like.

It would be better labeled a "fruitiness" chart as the wines anywhere other than the bottom three are all completely dry, no residual sugar (I'm talking about the normal kinds).  Cab is just as dry, e.g., low sugar, as zinfandel, though the latter tastes "fruitier" usually.  Malbec is also dry and not very fruity either usually.

It makes no sense.  The bottom three are quite sweet by design.  Port is inherently high in sugar.

It's like claiming riesling is a sweet wine.  It can be, the best ones are bone dry and very bracing.  Wine is a multidimensional thing.  

Most wines are fermented to dryness, meaning they have no/very little residual sugar.  If you see an alcohol level of 8-9%, then it probably does have residual sugar.

I got the fruitiness chart from FB, so..........

I thought it might be idiotic and stir some discussion

had to go back 65 pages to find this thread

went back through all 164 pages searching for the wine thread to no avail
