Liquors!

Can't say that I have, but in the States Jameson isn't all that expensive, and I'll drink that **** on the rocks. I dig it.

Janszoon - Nicely done with the Knob Creek drop. I like my bourbon as well.

Now this! Is a winner. Wheat bourbon. Smooth as a baby's ass.

This is nothing to scoff at, either. If you scoff at things, that is.

But this is my shit. Specifically the Anejo. I am a tequila drinkin' fool. But I'm actually surprised I'm even in this thread, with the kind of hungover day I had.

I love Scotch, which usually leads people to believe that I'm a single malt snob, but I'm really not. I'll drink anything from Inver House which can be purchased in a 32 oz. plastic jug to Glenmorangie which at some places can go for over $30 a pour. I really can't get down with bourbon though; Knob Creek is definitely too sweet for my tastes, but I do have somewhat of a penchant for Jack Daniels.

OK I can't seem to find any pictures on Google right now and I'm away from my home so I can't take a picture of it, but it's a Cuban rum called Castillo Cuban Rum. She gets it while she's away on business in Mexico and I have to say it's probably the smoothest rum I've ever had. It's got enough of a kick to it to make you not shoot back the shots quickly like with white rums, but it's smooth enough to make you want to. If you can, try it with the Mexican Coke bottles because they're made from actual cane sugar rather than corn syrup. Generally the Mexican cokes are 200% better, but they're hard to come by. I know Costco and Sam's Club have them, but I'm sure Mexican run convenience stores would have it. Anyway, the blend of both flavors is nearly orgasmic and quite possibly the only sugary drink I will willingly drink.

I tried whiskey for the first time last night, a little JD. Without the coke. I thought my Oesophagus had been stipped.

Heh, yeah well I'm sure Jack Daniels could strip paint off wood, so your throat will definitely be feeling the burn. Whisky is very much an acquired taste that you don't ever fully get use to, still does wonders after 8 hours on your feet though.

i don't think so. i don't drink leisurely very much (can't really afford it), but i enjoy a nice whiskey now and then and i definitely prefer Jack Daniels to a number of high class veneers. for that matter, i'd much rather cozy up to a glass of JD, than say, a bitter ale or glass of wine.

have to say though, been enjoying this stuff a bit much:

i can't normally stand sweet vodkas (especially the garbage that gets tossed out by Svedka and Smirnoff), but this is certainly something worth trying. well worth the $22 a bottle if you've got some lemonade on hand.

You obviously haven't had your first shot of this yet.

Talk about burn. Talk about total and utter destruction. Talk about drunk enough to do cocaine. Makes Jack Daniels seem like ginger beer.

Where's the love for the scotch single malts? Am I the only enthusiast?

Anyways, got an Ardbeg and a Bowmore for christmas. Pretty sweet!

you're the only one that can find them cheaply enough to care. cost of import + 40% alcohol tax = fucking expensive.

my father used to drink them, maybe when i have a steady paying job i'll look into them.

I'd rather take Vodka over JD any day. I felt sick for about 10mins after i drank it.
