I've been on a bit of a bourbon binge the last year and have ranked my top 7 so far based on drinkability and value for money. All drunk straight with a whiskey stone and 2 small ice cubes.

Buffalo Trace
Elijah Craig
Knob Creek
Booker's
Makers Mark
Gentleman Jack
Jack Daniel's 1907

Anyone have any other recommendations?
I can no longer drink any more, but I wish I could drink JD again...

Tennessee Whiskey is bourbon, isn't it? Or am I missing something?




Been wondering about that one.
Doesn't look like it would be good but I'll give it a go and abuse you if it's crap.

One I did try was Bulleit and it tasted like nail polish remover. Didn't like it at all.
Bulleit is one of those cheap made mass produced whiskers made to look rustic by the bottle and label...avoid.

Me and a mate put mayonnaise and garlic sauce in my housemate's moisturiser about a week ago. He'd been rubbing it in all over his face and I was on the verge of bursting out in to laughter every time I watched him doing it. I got home from work last night and found he'd put the bottle in the bathroom and shoved my toothbrush in there. Do you think he's upset? Haven't seen him since Sunday so might have to avoid contact a little longer. (We also put holes in his condoms with a pin which I admit probably went a little bit too far but he found out about that earlier)
When he beats you into unconsciousness, could you please make note as you fall to the ground of whether the mayonnaise and garlic improved his skin texture?

Would now be a bad time to ask if I can lick his face?

NUFC, YES.
Can't drink Bourbon, too sweet. Or is that just the cheap ones?
+1.

I much prefer scotch. Neat, mixed or otherwise.

Whenever there's a 'do at girlf's dad's place he always looks at me like I'm mad when he makes the switch from beer to JD and I tell him 'nah, I'm good'.

Or the scenario where you produce a bottle of scotch and the other bloke says "pfft scotch, only girls drink that!" as he tops up his nip with coke, then just after I chuck a bit of ice in my glass and raise it to my lips his eyes widen and "wow I can't believe you're drinking that straight!!!". I have an uncle exactly like that, been drinking beam and coke for 30 years and wonders why he has no teeth left.

It tends to be sweeter, more like an Irish Whiskey than a peaty Scotch.

The cheaper ones tend to have a nasty 'ethanol' after taste that is very rough but the better ones are much smoother.

Always drink straight too, no mixers.
