Its starting to get cold enough to want to keep a pint of good whiskey around. Whats your whiskey/bourbon of choice? Jim Beam here
i prefer scotch whisky to most other whiskies. my favorite is maccallan cask strength, but its too pricey for me to buy a bottle of. once in a long while i'll get a glass at the bar though....a shot's worth is about 11 bucks where i go, but a bottle is too much to spend the money on, even if cc to cc buying a shot at the bar is more expensive their 12 year is good, too but if i buy scotch i'm more likely to go for something a little more affordable, like isle of jura, or if i can't afford a good single-malt, i'll occasionally get a blended whisky like chivas or johnny walker for other, cheaper whiskies...i dunno...tullamore dew is good for blended irish whiskey....i like wild turkey alright once in a long while....sometimes the seegrams vo or something....
I like Tullamore Dew and Wild Turkey Rye. But I'm not much of a hard alocohal drinker, so I rarely drink whiskey.
I'd rather drink beer and whiskey, and I usually buy whiskey when I don't have money. My favourite is Blue Label by Johnny Walker, yet logically I can't afford it... so I settle for good ol' Evan Williams
Fighting Cock, though I don't drink whiskey that much because it brings out the evil in me.:reddevil:
Penderyn hands down is the best whiskey i have ever tried. The whiskey i drink the most of however is Tullemore dew.
I'm an Irish Whiskey man myself and generally stick to the Blends because of price, namely Jameson, Tullamore Dew or Bushmills (Blackbush preferably). If I'm willing and/or able to spend a bit more cash I'll splurg and get a bottle of Redbreast which is a "Pure Pot Still" whiskey. A really great and reasonably priced whiskey is Tyrconnell which is a single malt and also very good, but a bit to harsh to share with my wife. (She prefers something a bit "smoother"). But I do enjoy a good Canadian Whiskey as well, namely Crown Royal or Canadian Mist, helluva cheaper to go this route. If I drink bourbon its usually Makers Mark or Wild Turkey.... JACK MAKES ME YACK!
Thats my favourite too! I found it by accident. My friend was supposed to pick me up a quart of tequila, but accidentally bought that. (I don't know how)
My dad used to drink a bottle a night! :$ I guess it's in my blood because my grandfather did as well
i had classic twelve year the past two nights, which is a canadian whisky made by canadian club. i've never had regular canadian club, but i definitely liked it better than any of the seagrams i usually get when i am cheap and buy canadian whisky (seagrams 7, VO, or VO gold) i haven't had crown royal in a loooong time so i can't compare the two, but i remember thinking the crown was way overpriced. this stuff was 17 bucks and actually pretty good, but nowhere near as good as a single malt scotch. a buddy of mine got me two DAMN nice cigars for christmas, and i'd honestly be surprised if he spent a penny under 25 bucks for the two of them, so i felt the need to give him a nice gift, too...so i bought him a bottle of aberlour 12 year single malt....he insisted that i try a glass, so i did...and i think its one of my new favorites. i still prefer macallan cask strength, but thats FAR out of my price range. i bought a pint of glenlivet recently, and its pretty decent. a bit pricey for what it is, though, as far as i'm concerned. it was almost 20 bucks for a pint, and i thought the aberlour was much better, and cheaper too at about 35 bucks for the fifth. isle of jura isn't too bad, and i like macallan 12 year, too. but so far my favorite scotch is easily macallan cask strength
