Are you a Whiskey drinker? If so, what brand?

I'm from Kentucky, so I'll drink anything from Nelson or Bullitt county.

Personally, I'm partial to Jim Bean 7 year old.

What about you?

Knob Creek.  Pretty damn smooth for 100 proof.

My really hot wife who I am getting ready to lay in about 2 minutes is Irish. She's sober and she loves my ugly face.

Never tried it?  It's Irish.  I will admit, I do not really like whiskey's taste, so I go by "Which whiskey makes me less want to puke my guts out and scalds my throat the least?"

By my standards, Jameson is way up there.  I dont like the flavors of liqour.  I look for lack of flavor, lack of impurities, lack or stuff that makes me shudder in digust.  Which is why I like the high end vodkas the most, but most high-end liqours fit the bill well enough. It's usually beer and wine for me.

Knob Creek most of the time - love the distinctive sweet flavor.
Wild Turkey, Old Rip Van Winkle, Blantons from time to time.

I like Jim Beam.  I would say Jack Daniels because I am from Tennessee but it is just not as good and costs more.

Being Irish and all, I hate to admit I am a cheapskate and buy Canadien Mist for my occasional relaxation sip.

Speak of the devil. I had two Jack Daniels Dry Manhattans tonight while watching the Hollywood shootout. That was after 4 Negra Modelo's just about dusk.

Local homemade..

I talked to two men that attended Altech a few years ago. Most of the whiskeys and other spirits you buy have a large percentage of PGA in them. I want to know what I'm putting down my neck.

1. For a straight rye type whiskey, I like Jamesons.
2. For Bourbon I like Jim Beam
3. For Scotch I like Glenfeddich but most any single malt will do.

Jim Beam Black label. IMO some of the high priced stuff tastes like crap but because its SUPPOSED to be good cause it costs so much and people get the "emperor has no clothes" thing going. Johnny Walker Black and red, YEUCH!!  Bushmills is OK but its an acquired taste.

Knob Creek, it's about the best bourbon I can afford. [BD]

I like Maker's Mark the best.  Knob Creek second.  But for everyday drinking it's JD; I can't afford to swill the good stuff often

Tulamore Dew Irish Whisky. It doesn't burn yer gullet. Always taken neat.
But I thought this thread was about WHISKEY? as in American Sourmash Bourbon or Canadian? In which case Wild Turkey Rare Bread 101, and Maker's Mark. Haven't come across any of the more boutique marques cuz I've never really delved that far into sourmash. Sorry to say, but the heartburn demon requires it be diluted with that dark fizzy stuff. I tend to stay with the Rare Bread so as not to offend the truly pious.

I'm not very particular as long as it is Canadian.  Yukon Jack, Crown Royal, Black Velvet, and Canadian Mist. All have a warm spot in my heart.  "Rye and 7, please."

Most single malt scotches. Dalwhinnie and Balvenie Double Wood are my favorites. Have to be in the mood for Laphroaig - kind of peaty for my tastes. Come to think of it, Macallan 18yr uber alles!

Right on!!  All these people on here are saying they drink Knob Creek like it's water.  What are you guys???  Rich!??!?

Knob Creek is my bourbon for "special occasions" but for everyday drinking, it's hard to pass up the value of Ezra Brooks!!  All you Jim Beam drinkers should give Ezra Brooks a try.  It's pretty cheap and tastes damn good too.

I've spent many a night just drinking beer on my porch and washing out the beer aftertaste with a swig of whiskey from the bottle (And it impresses the womens [BD]).

Hands down the best whiskey I've put past my lips is the Balvenie doublewood. The older the better!!
Damn stuff is expensive but I get a bottle for my birthday every other year or so.

Jim Beam Black (the best bourbon for the money IMHO)

For bourbon: Heaven Hill 10-yr old 100 proof bottled in bond (good old Nelson Co. whiskey)

For non-bourbon days, Black Bushmills or 12-yr old Cutty Sark....

ColtCarbine: BTW, my wife was born in Bardstown, lived there for many years. Her father was an ATF gauger at HH, very close friend of Big Bill Samuels & family. He supposedly helped Mr. Samuels with the recipe for Maker's Mark after the Samuels family sold HH. The S IV on the Maker's Mark bottle stands for the fourth generation of the Samuels family to make bourbon.....Have one for me. I'm at work and can't.......
