Jack Daniel's is the best in my opinion. Normally where I drink it is in Thailand where I spend most of my time during the year. There are many whiskies to choose from but the prices are much higher than in the USA. Jack is usually about $50 a bottle. But I buy it in a bar and drink it there. When I leave, they put my name on it and I come back whenever and get it and continue.

So what do you prefer to drink? Why don't you like whiskey?

I like Bulliet Frontier Whiskey or Blanton's Single Barrel for my everyday bourbon, both have a great taste and and are very smooth. Drink it on the rocks. I want to try some Pappy Van Winkle, but can't find it around here anywhere.

I'm just getting into Scotch, just finished a bottle of Glenlivet 18 year, it was very nice. Complex flavor, but very pleasing. I had the Scotch neat, never got around to trying it with a little water. Not sure what I'm getting next, maybe one of Johnny Walker's.

I like both a lot. For something smooth with a unique taste try Rowan's Creek. It is even 100 proof!

Sorry, just not a fan of Jack. I know what you mean though, about buying a bottle overseas, they write your name on it, and you get to go back and finish it. However, I had this one issue with this upscale bar in Manila. I bought a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black for 9K Pesos; yes, about $200

. It was almost closing time, and they said my friend and I either had to finish it, or take it home. Either way, I couldn't leave it at the bar. Naturally we finished it. My friend doesn't really drink that much, so I went from sober to ******* in about 45 minutes. There were a LOT of beautiful Pinays, but f**k that place.

I say you gotta try it once to know whether you actually don't like it. Even Jagermeister. :P

YangCheolIn · 11-14-2013, 08:59 PM

lagavulin 16

dAvenue · 11-14-2013, 09:46 PM

i usually partake in a delightful cognac beverage:

Hennessy Privilege
Hennessy VS
Remy Martin VSOP

all are

on the rocks or with a splash of Sprite. the one thing i love about cognac is i can get obliterated one night and wake up feeling like a million bucks the next morning.

whiskey and bourbon are another favorite:

Gentlemen's Jack
Woodford Reserve
Crown Royal

i always mix them with Coke. also very

but if i drink too much, i feel like someone's kicking me in the balls the next morning.

Drambuie . . . from Scotland since 1745.......

The history of alcohol and the role of cheap prohibition alcohol in providing a strong impetus for mixed drinks and cocktails is interesting. Hence rum and coke and scotch (or whiskey) and whatever.

An interesting turn is that you now see people mixing good alcohol with drinks that hide or overpower its flavor. Chili's has built an empire in part by convincing people to mix good tequila with shitty margarita mix.

Doh!
