Sippin Whiskey

[Srruger762]

If I'm not sipping blackberry moonshine I sip on my bourbon

 

[DEADEYE McNASTY]

My favorite. I was introduced to it by the Michigan Bourbon Club when I won a bottle. Have one at home now too from a barrel pick for the club "Brotherhood of the Barrel".

I think the last time I had it was about a year ago. My local store gets it sometimes. I told him next time you get it I want it. So he finally called me and said he had a bottle so I bought it. I havent even opened it. I may just keep it around because no telling when I can get another bottle. I will drink it when i get a couple to sit on. I just like having rare things.

Keith Richards may dispute that assertion ...

Yeah, take advice from an over the hill, ex-heroin addict, alcoholic! Trust me, don't. I used to smoke cigars with a functioning alcoholic that's retired now, that's a total mush brained moron. Note, I said "used" to.

Jameson Irish Whiskey: liquid sunshine in a bottle

Homemade peach brandy.

Old Overholt straight rye, Jameson second, and Henry McKenna to round it off.

Oddly enough, the Wild Turkey Forgiven and the Old Foresters Bottled in Bond stay at the front of the cabinet. The Woodford stays in the freezer for those afternoons when ice ain't gettin it.

You're supposed to sip at it, not take shots of it.

In Wisconsin, the term "sip" is unknown. The rule of the game is to get that volume from the bottle to your belly.

That’s where stuff like Kessler and Seagram’s comes in:

20% of some cheap straight bourbon
80% of neutral grain alcohol
= American Blended Whiskey

Motto: All the booze and just enough flavor to taste better than vodka shots

I am more of an Irish and Scotch drinker but I do like Buffalo Trace, it is however hard to get in my area. You have to put your name on a list to get it. My go to Irish is Bushmills and my go to Scotch is Dewars White label and on the rare occasion I can afford it The Glenlivet.
However like others have said you need to experiment with whatever yu drink and see how it suits you taste. I prefer any of it neat. Very rarely will I drop a cube of ice in anything.

Hence the presence of Everclear.

My daddy used to drink Schenley O.F.C. 8 Year Old Blended Canadian Whisky. He would tell me that OFC stood for "Only for Catholics". It's pretty good stuff. I drank a fair number of alcoholic beverages in college, with Rebel Yell being one of my favorites. Wild Turkey is good too.

I've tried a number of single malt scotches, but prefer Chivas Regal.

I seldom drink anymore. The wife and I still have bottles of booze that we bought when we got married in 2008.

 

[S&WOkie]

My favorite bourbon so far but it sure is getting difficult to find around here.

 

[Donn]

Many to choose from, mine's Blanton.

 

[K Frame Keith]

An old thread, like good whiskey, just gets better with age. Knob Creek, and Buffalo Creek are my favorites. Our son just introduced me to Rebel Yell recently, also on the list now.

I've been sitting on a bottle of Wild Turkey Longbranch for a few months and finally opened it. It might just have become my favorite sipping bourbon. Aged 8 years and bottled at 43%, it is smooth, but with a characteristic Wild Turkey finish. This one is too good to go in a cocktail.

From what I hear, real bourbon comes from Kentucky. My uncle was a Kentucky farmer and sold corn to Jim Beam. His favorite was Buffalo Trace though, and I drink it in his honor when I get the chance. It's a darn good bourbon. Cheers all!

While I have tried Bourbons from Colorado, Pennsylvania, NY, South Carolina and probably a few other States that I forgot about, NONE come close to Kentucky Bourbon!!

And yes while Jack Daniels is not technically a Bourbon, I love it, (the old No 7, the Single Barrel and the Sinatra Select) - and that is from Tennessee (close enough) .

I like the cheapest brandy I can find . Free of flavoring and coloring . Usually a double over ice with a half ounce of water . Keeps me from shooting myself .
