Favorite Whiskey?

[hatersaurusrex]

Sitting here having a few pulls of Blanton's for the first time.  It's really smooth.  

I'm a Gentelman Jack man since about forever, but love to sample them all.   Sugar Maple Charcoal filtered anything is great to me.   Also, if you didn't know, filtering bottom shelf whiskey through a Brita charcoal filter cleans them up and smooths them out quite nicely.  In Tennessee, we call this the 'Lincoln County Process'.

I know there are other whiskey lovers on here.  Scotch? Bourbon? Rye?  Mix it?  Splash of water? Neat?  Sound off on your favorite.

Johnny Walker Blue label for me.........only when Costco has it. Spendy spendy.

I pick that up for a pretty good price when passing through duty free liquor stores in airports... Typically returning stateside.  However, I prefer Black Label, just as good without sticker shock.

Second go-to is Ballantine's Scotch, both withal a splash of coke.

[Vector]

Jack Daniels Single Barrel, haven't tried Johnny Walker Blue though.

[polywideblock]

if you like Ballantine's    try chivas regal

Makers' 46 neat is my current favorite, all my whiskeys are served neat.  My friend had some really good stuff, I'm thinking it was Woodford Reserve IIRC.

[Charger_Fan]

Black Velvet is my favorite. In fact, I over indulged on a bottle just last night & as I type this, I'm still a little swimmy-headed.

[lukedukem]

Jameson Irish whiskey, 12 year. Strait. Or with some coke. Depends on the mood, but usually strait

Free!!

[RallyeMike]

Crown black or JB Rye depending on my mood.

[68X426]

Templeton Rye.

You guys in Iowa rock the rye.

[Paul G]

Jack & Coke, it taste so good! I have gentleman Jack, and just tried Tennessee Honey Jack. For slow sipping I prefer the Tennessee Honey Jack. But Old #7 is my favorite.

Ooooo... Woodford reserve is some good stuff too.   Since Jack Honey was brought up, Wild Turkey American Honey is much better IMO.  Drop that in some diet coke and sip away.  I downed a whole 5th day one last time my wife and I were in Vegas.

Good scotch is meant to be relished straight.

I think Jamison's is my favorite. Though I have gone through times when JD did it for me or Jim Beam. While in the service I learned the trick about filtering cheap booze. We made boiler whiskey and boiler wine. Let me tell you, if it was unfiltered it would burn a hole in the deckplates!!

We also found out in rather rough seas, that spilled booze cleans up oil very well...

I wonder if filtering good booze would even clean it up more?? 

[chaos52]

Maker's Mark is excellent.

Wild Turkey 101 proof is good.

And of course, Jack Daniels. I've tried Gentleman Jack. Want to try the Single Barrel, but haven't had an extra $40-50 yet.  

The best scotch I've had was Johnny Walker Gold. Very smooth.

And always on the rocks, whatever it is.

[Fred]

Glenfiddich & Bookers.

Have you tried a spot of Bookers in your port........outstanding.

[adauto]

I enjoy Maker's as it readily available. But my current fav is Mitcher's American.  There should be a law not allowing anyone to add any thing but ice!  It can be hard to find tho I've had to "import" it from Cali and Minn. 

[hatersaurusrex]

If you guys haven't tried Knob Creek Smoked Maple, you're missing out.  It tastes like whiskey-spiked pancake syrup.  I'm going to track down some Bakon vodka and make breakfast cocktails out of it.

Speaking of, time to go break the seal on the bottle right now...

buy a bottle of Dr JURDS jungle juice and be done with it   

[Todd Wilson]

Depends on if I want to be mellow or get F'ing stupid and tear stuff up!

A friend of mine likes the 101 Wild Turkey which is a bit harsh, but I found one they make called Rare Breed that is much smoother. I'll buy a bottle every once in a while & pour a shot or two at night to sip while watching the TV. I don't like it mixed with anything or with ice.

Takes one to know one!!

That rates right up there!    but Jack Daniels black label and I are pretty good friends. 

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

While not as "Whiskey-ish" as most of the ones posted....my favorite "shot" is Fireball!

[billfury]

Any JD on the rocks for me.

My baby bottle.

[stripedelete]

Scotch and Nyquil are the only two which have not been placed the no-drink-list by the Authorities (wife). 

So I guess it's Scotch.  I'm slowly enjoying a bottle of 18 yr old Glenlivet. 

[rt green]

george dickel old no 12 and cola does it for me

[RECHRGD]

A good single malt scotch. Dahlwinnie and 15 year old Glenfiddich are favorites...

[Slowpoke]

Wild Turkey has been my favorite for a long time, 30 years or so. But in my misspent youth I when thru  a lot of Thompson's green label,
real good stuff, aged for as long as it takes to get from the distillery to the bar. 

[Road Dog]

My Favorite. I'm a bottle collector.

[tsmithae]

That's an awesome bottle!   

[DixieRestoParts]

The Go To brand is Jack. But, I like trying them all.

[adauto]

That's an awesome bottle!   

Yes it is!

[oldgold69]

I just had some 60 year old Canadian today       smooth

[BananaDan]

I'm a single malt guy and haven't found a bottle I haven't liked, but if I have a go-to brand, it's Oban.  I've been getting more and more into Bourbon lately as a lot of new US producers have been popping up.

Do you have pictures of her? 

[Brass]

Redbreast is one of my favorites.

My Favorite. I'm a bottle collector.

Ever see this one? It's dated 1971 & has never been opened.
