Recently I saw someone actually mix these two to create a super nauseating drink.

I agree with you on the Goldschlager and the Jaeger, and would like to add Berenjaeger to that list. I can drink Jaeger (it tastes like Formula 44D) if I absolutely HAVE to, but Goldschlager is de debbil!! That shite's 104-proof! (the first and only time I ever drank it, no one bothered to tell my lil ol' 100 lb- butt that...I had five shots of it over an 8-hour period--otherwise I was drinking water--and I got sick as the proverbial DOG and hid in a dark room for the entire next day.)
Gin is pretty icky, too...vodka, to me, has an oily, greasy texture, and vermouth...ACK...that stuff tastes like freshly-mown grass smells (I tried a martini once....bleh)...and as for scotch...I've never tried it...I figure if you have to AQUIRE the taste for it, why bother?
One thing I'd like to try, though, is brandy. I'm a sipper, and brandy's a sipping liquid. I'd like to try the flavored ones. I like sweet wines, too, usually red.
