Glenmorangie, Famous Grouse and Jack Daniels are my favourites

I posted the basic recipe a few pages back…they’re great while floating in the pool.
I had my eyes on some pricey single malts this Sunday when I was paying my monthly trip to the liquor store, but opted for a re-stocking of my schnapps supply instead. Happily stuck with Jim Beam for another month.

I love Jameson’s as an everyday kind of whiskey. I also like MacClellan’s 15 year and Maker’s Mark. Jim Beam is also pretty nice, especially mixed.
I think Jameson’s mixes great with Guiness.[/quote]
I was drinking Jameson last weekend for the first time in years. What a fantastic whiskey that is. It was also dirt cheap as I was drinking it at the Irish pub on the corner.
Good cheap whiskey makes me a happy kid.

Wild turkey 101 or Rebel Yell. Elijah Craig and Evan Williams are also good.
Just bought my first bottle of Evan Williams Single Barrel 10 year old bourbon. Very smooth tasty stuff. Chased a shot just now with Guinness. [/quote]
Are you doing this to piss me off, Push? You know I hate it when people bump old threads. Why, man? I thought we got past our differences.

Someday you catch up with me…in a manner of speaking. I’ll be around 100 and you’ll be 73 or so. Then we’ll both be old.[/quote]
Now you killed the entire thread by mentioning how old I will eventually be. I’ll be gray-haired, wearing diapers, and drooling all over my Salisbury steak. You’ll be dust.
Now I’m depressed. I need a drink. Which gets us back to the original topic: Whiskey. Old Crow Bourbon for me.
Ha ha. To be continued, Father Time!
I can’t remember the last time I had some whiskey…because I only remember the first shot.
Forty Creek Barrel Select
Bushmills !
Current favourite is Redbreast 12 Year Old Irish Whiskey. Sells for $45 a fifth here in Soviet Canukistan. The taste? It’s like an angel peeing on your tongue.

Auchentoshan

Mind blowing. Triple distilled. I have never met anyone - women included - who can’t drink it neat, it is THAT smooth. In fact, you don’t even think you are drinking alcohol. Note I think that was for the 18 or 21 year old triple distilled.
Auchentoshan Distillery is a Single Malt whisky distillery in the west of Scotland. It is one of only three remaining distilleries in the Scottish Lowlands[4] along with Bladnoch and Glenkinchie. The distillery is situated on the outskirts of Clydebank in Dumbartonshire.
Unusually for a Scottish distillery, Auchentoshan practices triple distillation. Generally the final stage of Scotch whisky production involves distilling the fermented mash in two copper stills. In Auchentoshan, a third still gives a final spirit strength of 82% ABV (164 proof). This triple distillation, in addition to an unpeated malt, gives Auchentoshan a more delicate flavour than many Scotch Whiskies. Maturation is in ex-bourbon barrels and ex-sherry butts.
It is like drinking honeyed-fire.
Note, that I have a large collection of whisky, and have tried many many many. So when I say Auchentoshan, you go out and try it. My first bottle was a present from a member of the whisky society. … where whiskies have numbers, not names. I got a few good numbers from them too but you can’t get them in shops so no point telling you what they are.
But get the Auchentoshan
