I've always hated hard liquors, but recently I've developed quite a taste for whiskey - Wild Turkey 101 (bourbon) in particular. I'm looking to buy a few more bottles - what's your favorite? |
||||||||
|

|
Crown Royal and Jack Daniels. |
||||||||
|

How do you feel about Jack lowering their proof to 80? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uhhhh, drunk? (i didn't know they lowered the proof, when did that happen?) |

Somewhat recently, there was an online petition/boycott to try and stop it. |

I tried that stuff one time mixed with cola - is it really as sweet as I remember? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yeah it has caramel in it...its the BEST with Vanilla Coke. or STRRRRAAAIIIGGGHHHTTTTTT |

Ok, I've got this book from the library in front of me and the author says that SoCo isn't a whiskey at all, but a "mixture of spirit, peach and lemon matured in oak barrels". She goes on to assert "Today the company markets the drink simply as a liqueur." |

i prefer vodka |
||||||||
|
|

But yeah, I've been drinking all of this boubon neat - that's the only way to go as far as i'm concerned right this instant. I just never liked to mix liquor, I used to just hold my breath and shoot it and then chase it as soon as possible. At this moment I have a glass of Jim Beam (no ice) which I am swirling around my mouth and washing my gums before I swallow. Beam is ok, but lacks character I feel. Wild Turkey 101 makes your fucking gums numb and gives you this great "woosh" as you swallow it and take that first breath. |

Vodka is good. What's your brand? |
||||||||
|
|

Hmmmmm.... must be Popov then. |

i love flirt-vodka, but i only can get it in bulgaria :( gorbatschoff and absolut are nice though. |
||||||||
|
|

|

oh man i love Suntory Hibiki but its difficult to locate here so i lean on Makers Mark which is so bomb, especially if you throw like 2 good ice cubes into 3 fingers of it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if'n you are a wild turkey fan, you ought to try Wild Turkey - Rare Breed which recently discovered. Excellent sippin' whiskey! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i meant to say 'which I recently discovered.' i imagine it's been around a while..?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I rather enjoy Glenfiddich, or Jamesons |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
johny walker red label, cause i dont like it smooth or anything |
||||||||
|
|

I'm more into vodka. My friend the death metal singer really likes his scotch though - the gory extra peaty varieties that coat the inside of your mouth with a corpse-goo that lingers for hours. Bleah. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not really a bourbon fan myself, i prefer my scotch whiskey. bells, jameson, southern comfort are all reasonably prices whiskey which i enjoy. when im a bit strapped for cash i usually go for a cheaper option, something like first watch (eeuw) or scottish leader. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i cannot stand bourbon...some people love it favorite whiskeys? famous grouse and bushmills black bush |
||||||||
|

wild turkey rare breed, or maker's mark. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
woot! and woot! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cognac for me, and make it a large one |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
jameson - give me irish whiskey, none of that stinkin' kentucky whiskey which makes my head puke cough. |

Jameson or jack daniels, although the local offy has got a bulk-buy offer on famous grouse at the minute. Whisky rots my guts anyway, nice as it is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yech! burbon! burbon is sugary water. Jameson is good while not being pricy, so while I enjoy other wiskeys more, I'll have to say Jameson is my whiskey, since that's what I drink. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hell Yes! I just had my first glass of Maker's Mark and I'm in love. Full mouth, yet so smooth with the finish. I've been dying to try Rare Breed but I'm a little afraid of the $27.99 price tage for a 750ml bottle. How does it compare to Maker's for you? |
||||||||

I haven't tried much in the way of Irish and Scottish whiskeys - I'm not so sure I'm very big on blends. For some reason they have always tasted a little bit "weak" or "watery" to me. Maybe I would like single malt scotch. |
