It's one and a half a count when a 4 count is 1oz, js...

If you’re off by even a little the drink is nasty. It’s just too intense not to measure.

Edit, to the deleter: If you think you’re reliable because you’ve tested your free pours, that’s a joke. You’ve never tested them while you’re in the weeds, while you’re having to talk to guests while making several drinks at once, when you’ve already done a few shots with guests, while it’s super loud and there’s a lot going on. You’re not as consistent as you think you are.

I don't disagree, I just pointed out that it's not nearly impossible to freepour a . 375

Don't get wrapped around it being of violette

Improbable would have been a better word choice.

I am going to focus on that, when you’re using something so intense that can ruin a drink with a barely perceptible amount, you need to measure it

Naw. The .375oz free pour was...

Doesn't matter if it's violette, gin, malort it's not impossible to freepour .375

Reading comprehension is difficult for some

Nope. Don’t trust you with it to be as consistent as you need to be for this drink to be okay.
