What's your favorite whiskey? I'm a jack Daniels guy. Gentleman jack is my favorite. Whether mixed or on the rocks. Also a tennesee squire.
Regular, single barrel and honey are all delicious too!
Gentleman Jack!
40 Creek
Absolutely can't stand Jack and his under proofed crap.
Fireside Whiskey and Buffalo Trace are current favs. Old Crow, Ten High and Old Weller are the classics. W. L. Weller 12 Year, Elija Craig 20, Rip Van Winkle 10 for the new faves.
No whisky for me. It makes me mean(er).
Buffalo Trace and Bulleit.
I also have a bottle of Buffalo Trace White Dog Rye Mash I work on when I'm feeling brave. It's surprisingly tasty.
Same here, more than a glass or two and I get angry. Though I do keep some Crown around for mixed drinks, and I have a bottle of Glenlivet 21 year in hiding as I do like the flavors.Quote:

I also have about a half a bottle left of Deer Hammer wheat whiskey that is absolutely awesome. Too bad he only made 1 barrel of it and I'm pretty sure it's all gone, he never did have it listed on their website. The owner is a friend of a friend of mine, he makes some damn good hooch.

Bourbon: Maker's Mark
Scotch: Laphroaig
I used to prefer Scotch, but in recent years I've found myself drifting into the Bourbon camp. Not gonna turn down either though. Honestly think the thing that kept me away from Bourbon for so many years was Jack Daniels ... there's an odd little flavor just below the surface with Jack that I really don't like.
Not a Jim Beam fan either but give Jacob's Ghost (white dog) is pretty good.Quote:

Delusional. From what I've seen, you're a pussycat. Yo to the Bro, Tho...[Flower]Quote:

Funny that you cap your $2000+/btl elite Single Malt dream tongue tickler with a beer toast smiley. If it has graced your lips, praise be to you (the scotch, not the draught).Quote:

Jack Daniels for standard consumption but I really like Jefferson's Reserve.
For a scotch I like Glendronach (and so many others).
Most are just a little too expensive for my budget.

Going to have to try that. I'm a buffalo trace fan and this sounds tasty.Quote:

That's my favorite there... famous for the "skull pop" that it gives.Quote:

For Scotch, I'm a Macallan guy. Love it, love it, love it.
I did a Bourbon tasting a while back and discovered I like Rye based whiskeys. I'm a fan now of Bullit Rye, mostly because it's cheap at the COS Costco.
It would be easier to list the whiskeys I don't like. The only one that comes to mind is Jim Beam. Ugh.
that's because its barley based instead of wheat or rye.Quote:

Do we need to start a whisky thread also? Attachment 37159
Jim Beam but have not had any in around 30 some years. When I was in the U.S. Army, I ran the NCO package liquor store (years 1956 - 1958) and Jim Beam was the biggest seller. The slowest seller was Schnley ("Black Death")
1792 Ridgemont Reserve, Bulleit, Elijah Craig and the newest addition Hookers House bourbon.
We're stuck on American Honey right now.Quote:

Macallan 12 is my favorite. I enjoy Ardbeg, Glenfiddich, and Laphroaig too.Quote:

What is the infatuation with Pappy Van Winkle? 7000 cases a year. 5-14 year waiting lists. The "old" unsold bourbon stock is drying/dried up, so look for the availability to be even less in the near future. Not saying it isn't good but it is unobtainium. I'll stick with something a little more accessible.
