I've chosen to more or less get rid of the ****. The journey contains a bit of improvisation, for maximizing the chance of success.

At your peak, what was the most whisky your were drinking (e.g., daily or weekly)? What benefit do you get from your whisky hobby when all you talk about is how to control it?
Don't have the exact numbers, had at "best" about 20 bottles of single malt etc in the shelf. A rough estimation is I was up to a consumption of 1.5 bottles a week when peaking. Deduced it from how much I bought and how fast it dwindled. On the other hand I once drank a whole bottle in 24 hours without really getting drunk. That was one of the triggers to not drink during weekends: it was of no use and potentially detrimental to health.
When it comes to my whisky hobby I'm prepared to give it one more chance before ditching it. But then it just
has to be in whisky bars, in extremely small amounts. Buying miniatures doesn't work anymore, I've had enough of the few available in my local store. And I can't have any bigger bottles stored in the house, so there you go!
As a friend of basic math I estimated earlier I'm giving myself a 40% chance to save my whisky hobby. That's not very far from a coinflip, and worth checking out!
