Whiskey Suggestions

[JesseSydney]

Agreed on laphroaig. A $200 bottle at the cost of $90

Drink what you like mate.

My home bar has a couple of each that I give to people depending on how much I like them and their preference. I happy to share my Lark with my cousins husband but not my brother who mixes in coke.

But current favourites:
Bourbon
- Buffalo Trace
- Woodford Reserve
- Makers Mark for people who don’t realise the other two are better
- Southern Comfort for cocktails
Scotch (single malt)
- Glenmorangie (have a couple 12 year varieties)
- Glenmoray 18 year
- Glenfiddich 15 year
Scotch (Blended)
- Monkey Shoulder
- Johnnie varieties (Red, Black, Gold, Green and a couple of the GoT ones)
- Glayva whiskey liquor
Other Whisk(e)y
- Lark
- Hellyer Road
- Sazarac Rye

I haven’t bother replacing the Japanese ones I had because the flavour isnt worth the price now.

But for general drinking with a mixer I go Buffalo Trace and Monkey Shoulder every time.

Buffalo trace is what ive been drinking today and the past 5 days. Amazing for sure

Woodford reserve too sweet n complicated tasting for me (who calls that bourbon, that aint bourbon!)

Makers mark great in small doses

Soco i dont like at all

Glenmorangie, glenfiddich, glenmoray all amazingly smooth n great (ah, isle single malts, makes me wanna move to scotland) but i prefer glenfiddich from the 3

Monkey shoulder i did a few bottles, still not a fan. Amazing steel ornament though, classy af

Johnnies fine for group friends but bland

Glayva, lark, hellyer, never tried, bucket list now

Sazerac rye sounds awesome, definite top of bucket list. Always love proper rye whiskeys.

P.s. this is from my point of view, which is terribly bad perhaps, as my whiskey of choice is actually jim beam white (roughly 2000 bottles of em in the past 2 decades downed). Im a peasant

Yuck, sour mash. I really cannot drink any sour mash whiskey. Jim Beam, JD, wild turkey, all of them. They make my throat go dry and I feel like I've got a lump in my throat.

I prefer Irish whiskey over scotch because they're cheaper to get the smooth taste than scotch. My go to is Jameson, lost count of the number of bottles I've gone through over the last 4 years.

I do like the single malts like Glenfiddich and The Macallan estate ones, but you'd need to get at least an aged one like maybe 12 yo, otherwise it's going to go down rough. They're very pricey!

You drink that straight or with a mixer like Coca cola?
Hope you practice moderation bro. We all need you to be healthy for all your valuable community and business service

As I said mate you should drink what you like and how you like it. Jim Beveridge swears by Johnnie Red and he is the head distiller at Johnnie Walker.

Although I disagree with you about the Woodstock. Had a Texan mate that wouldn’t let me drink any other bourbon when out drinking because the rest were swill (according to him).

My father was a big drinker. When he died he was cremated. It took four days for the fire to go out.

All that was left was some flickering residual tar from the two pack a day durry habit he had been running for 70 plus years.

They bred em tough in the good ol’ days.

Smoking, drinking, gambling.

I carried on the family tradition but dropped those bad habits and picked up womanising.

Though today I thought after pumping those two hot babes hard and fast quite possibly I might be shortening my life span 😉

[scorpio85]

My go to has to be glen morangie. Genrally any highlands scotch (glen ***) is my jam

the lagavulin 16 for $150 is a good deal at dan murphy
