Whisky drinkers here?

I have been "sampling" a lot of whisky/whiskey the last couple of years.

I drink Bourbon such as Maker's Mark and Buffalo Trace, and Irish Whiskey such as Jameson's and Bushmill's.

I have recently started drinking Johnnie Walker Scotch Whisky - Black Label. Tasted pretty strange at first, but I think it's growing on me.

 

Borracho..LOL

 

OK, I had to look up Borracho, which I found to mean "drunkard."

Actually, I am pretty good at just drinking enough to take the edge off! Plus, I really do enjoy the flavor.

Hey, and it's good for your health in moderation. Prevents heart disease...

 

Drank some Jameson at the factory in Ireland that you can only get there and I gotta say it was real good real smooth.. I would love to get some moonshine and try some of that..

 

Try some blue label if your ever at a bar that has it.

 

I think Blue Label costs $225.00 for a bottle, right? So how much do they charge for a shot? I would like to try it!

 

It's about 35 bucks for a double shot in a glass. It's worth trying once

 

That's pretty expensive for a bottle,unless it comes in a 5 gallon bucket,lol

 

I like the devils cut pretty well myself. And the wild turkey with honey every time I think my nose is runnin. These parts down here also have some prime "spring water"

 

Jameson is very smooth and very drinkable, and that's cool you
had a chance to taste it at the source.

I haven't tried real moonshine.

 

Wild Turkey 101. I live on a budget, so The Glenlivet and Glenfiddich are about as top of the line I go. Also have some local stuff that isn't too bad.

 

laphroaig 10 yrs. is a standard. I have a bottle of the quarter cask 5 yrs in the pantry now. It has a bit of a medicine taste to it but really not much else to complain about.

 

I mostly drown in lake Daniels...

 

Only good mixed.

Anyone part of Makers Mark ambassador club? Look into it. It's pretty cool

 

Laphroaig is my favorite. If you likey smokey/salty man, that is some goood stuff.
I have tried the 10yr, 15yr, and 10yr cask strehgth. Love it. Plus you get a 100 yr lease of of a 1'x1' plot of land in Scottland. lol

Also if you want to explore scotches, lagavulin another Islay scotch. Tallisker, Macallan, dalwhinnie for some highland scotch. Love some of the irish whiskey too. Jameson, Bushmills, black bush, middletons, all good shit. But usually drink bourbon since it is cheaper, Evan williams or Wild turkey, Jim Beam every once in a while.

 

Makers Mark and Jim Beam

 

Tullamore Dew 12 year old bottle or Kilbeggan Whiskey 18 year old bottle, both well worth drinking

Love me some Jura, knockando or Lagavullin.

 

legal poitín is probably the closest thing to moonshine
Knockeen Hills Gold Extra Strength 90%vol

not as nice as home made brown poitín, but worth trying if u live outside Ireland
