Sitting around the house I normally have: Rebel Yell, Dickel, MacAllan, Bushmill's Single Malt, Wild Turkey 101, and Laphroaig.
A motley collection to be sure, I drink them all and enjoy them all. Maybe a little more often than I should. Edited to add: How could I have forgotten the crock of Tulamore Dew? |

Now just exactly where in TX will I be visiting?[:D] KLR2001 mmay I take this opportunity to compliment your taste buds. Jim is still one fine drink but years back it was much better. To me blending a little brach water to get the alcohol down deters from the taste as well as shortening the age. Years back almost every wiskey especially from KY was fine aged shit but all have declined due to the fact too many of you guys are drinking it. [:D] The Canadian stuff tastes fine but seems to be a bit too smooth with no bite. Besides my grand daddy would turn in his grave for me drinking blended wiskey except when no other is available or free. LOL I've found a couple on this post I plan to try out so THANKS GUYS. |

Hell, I can remember when Holly Beach had a beach. LOL Had my first bottle of Rebel Yell in the late 60's. Have to admit, I've not had some in quite some time. Big_Bear my friend that Southern Comfort stuff doesn't suit my pallate either. It's way too sweet. My grand dad called it a womans wiskey meaning it was good to start a woman on to get her to move on to one with a bite rather than as an insult. Just remember, it's not good unless the first drink goes down and back up again. LOL I may just shock you one day John and give you a call. Never know about me, I get around a bit. |

If I drink whisky it's Maker's Mark all the way, mixed only with a few ice cubes.
There ought to be an amendmant to the consitution outlawing mixing good bourban with anything, which of course means Democrats would still put Coke in Maker's Mark. SG |

How many of you whiskey drinkers "load" your own airplane bottles? It only takes a steady hand or a small funnel which I rely on. I always have about a dozen loaded and ready for airline travel or golf or just about anything.
But back to the matter at hand.... I have scouted the closet and am down to 2 bottles of Knob Creek, 1 bottle of Jack and 1 of Beam (my grandpappys choice). I'm suprised nobody mentioned Wellers. |

Personally I prefer Jack Black Label or Single Barrel (if it is in stock)
After that it is a toss-up between Crown and Makers. Currently in stock at my house, 1L of Jack Black Label (Half-full) 1L of Jack Single Barrel (3/4 Left) 1L of Crown Royal (Half-Full) 1.75L of Crown Royal (Unopened) 1L of JB Scotch (Almost-gone) 1L of Bushmills (1/4 Left) 1L of Jonny Walker Red Label (3/4 Left) 1.75L of Seagrams 7 (Unopened) Drank Beam White label, Early Times, and when times were tight "Old Crow) all through college. You couldn't pay me to drink Old Crow anymore. And Early Times and White lable Beam just don't stack up to Jack/Crown/Makers in my opinion for the few dollars you might save. James Austin Texas |

Quoted: I don't know, but the Irish sure are drunkards. Hey, I resemble that remark hehehe. Actually, whiskey is to keep us from ruling the world. "Whiskey" is generally thought of as an Anglicization (I think that's a word)of the Gaelic "uisce"...from "uisce beatha", meaning "water of life." See, we had our priorities straight lol. Personally, I loathe the stuff...except for the occasional shot of a single malt Scotch called Glendronach, after a pint or two of stout to coat the stomach [:D] |

My everyday sippin' whisky is Jack Daniel's or Bushmills.
I also have a bottle in the cabinet that is reserved for myself and one other person on earth, and we have to be together to pour a taste. Gentlemen, I give you: Laphroaig 30 year old. [img]photos.ar15.com/WS_Content/ImageGallery/IG_LoadImage.asp?iImageUnq=13152[/img] |

Though I have been off the bottle for some time now ( excepting that ONE Black and Tan I had at the ARFCOM dinner a couple weeks ago ) I do miss the taste of a fine glass of Tulamore Dew. Nothing quite like it.

FLAME SUIT ON.....
I have been sipping crown royal as of late in the following manner. about 4 to 6 ice cubes, a couple of oz's of crown and then about 2 tablespoons no more maybe alittle less of ... . . . .DR Pepper. Please keep in mind I NEVER drink soda. I wanted a little something to drink one night and dinner was going to be done shortly so I thought a would have a Jack with a little coke. Well no Jack and no coke. I did have some crown and the wife did has some Dr Pepper. [puke] I thought.... so I tried a VERY little and it was well worth the effort. If you put TOO much in its like candy and it sucks. Just alittle and its a new taste all together. |

I like Jim and Jack (despite the fact he damn near killed me in 1989, crossing Cranberry lake in an aluminum canoe during a NASTY thunderstorm [:D]). My pal Seagram is OK, when his buddy 7 is nearby.
I usually trade some venison with a coworker every year. He dropped off some Lagavulin (SP?) and Knob Creek the past 2 deer seasons. Yummm. I also have some aged Scottish malt on the shelf. Haven't opened it yet, and the exact name escapes me... |

Not a flame, but just so you Wild Turkey fans know, WT is owned by a FRENCH company.
Thanks to the French, I no longer drink cognac. Anyone from KY or TN who drinks Canadian "whiskey" should be deported. [:D] |

OMG! No one has mentioned the BEST bourbon in the world, bar none. I can't believe it.
I recently did my own tasting, and purchased 20 different premium whiskeys and bourbons (most in small bottles). In descending order: 7. Makers Mark 6. Gentleman Jack 5. Knob Creek 4. Old Rip Van Winkle (very good mixed with coke) 3. Eagle Rare 12 year old 2. Jack Daniels Single Barrel and the number one, amazing, incredible, best to drink neat bourbon out there? 1. Eagle Rare 17 year old - WOW! This stuff is so tasty, so smooth - incredible. At $45 a bottle it had better be damn good. I've loved Eagle Rare 12 year old for years, but this 17 year old is the cat's meow! I promise you that you will LOVE this stuff - get it - it is well worth it! |

My favorites.....
Maker's Mark and Jack Daniels. Both are wonderful straight up or on the rocks. Knob is a wee-bit strong tasting, but very goood nonetheless. Used to drink Seagrams 7 because it was cheap. If I drink it now I get nauseous. Beam tastes like cheap, over sweetened cough syrup. CKMorley |

I don't drink Wiskey too often. usually just a few shots on Jameson with friends on StPatricks Day. SoCo is awsome, but we save the for the "Alabama Slammers"..
I personally like Quervo(yea, I know its not wiskey) I could sit and drink that all night. (not that I do) The only crap that gets me "wacked out" is coors light.. That crap makes me retarted and pissed. I can drink other beers without any problem. |
