Favorite Whisky?

[kickinindian]

My wife and I have been enjoying Dewars "12 year" blended scotch. really tasty and smooth. i usually dont like whiskey much, like jack just tastes like charcoal to me but the dewars is really woody taste that is really nice.

Jamison, but I'm not really much for whiskey. Gin is my preference.

I have to put another vote in for Yamazaki 18, amazing shit. But for more daily I always have Johnnie Walker (eh its drinkable) Black and Bulleit Rye around.

Right now my bar has a couple bottles sitting in it.
Nikka Pure Malt
Suntory Single Malt
Some other random bottle of Suntory that is in all Japanese that I got in Japan last year
Glenlivet Master Distillers Reserve x2
Johnnie Black and Double black
Bulleit Rye (For my old fashioned needs)
Crowne someone left
Green Spot I hide from all but my good friends.

Gin is my preference.

Bingo.

But if one must have whiskey

Gin guys, try the Ransom Old Tom Gin. I feel embarrassed to report my bottle is already showing significant wear. It tastes so good!

Super!

Yamazaki 18, amazing shit...Nikka Pure Malt

Both excellent choices.

If you like Yamazaki 18, try Caol Ila 18 and Ardbeg Uigeadail.

As for Nikka, I haven't tried the Taketsuru 17 yet. But the regular "From the Barrel" stuff is pretty good. The Taketsuru 17 is next on my list.

this is really good

this is probably my favorite bourbon in the sub 60.00 price point.

[flyboyx]

if we are talking about bourbon, this one is the one to end this thread. i have tried it a couple times in various whiskey bars around the country. it is the holy grail to own one of these. msrp is around 150-200.00. the secondary market price is around 1200.00. i would be willing to pay around 500.00 for one if i could find it.

[flyboyx]

here is a great one at a cheap price. unfortunately, its impossible to find. my local liquor store got in a case a couple months ago. i bought 6 bottles to squirrel away. my wife keeps giving them away to business associates. i started hiding it.

I used to southern comfort and jack. Until i got a little carried away one night and took an entire 750ml bottle down my self. I was feelin my self to say the least and can no longer even smell wiskey without some serious gagging haha

Johnnie walker Blue is always great to sip and relax on. But for a leisure a crown on the rocks is always good

I too am a Gin fan but my favorite all around whiskey is Elijah Craign neat.

Of all the Johnnie Walkers black is my favorite. Dickel Rye is a pretty good one as well, but I think Laphroiaig 18 is my all time favorite. The only socially acceptable way to lick an ashtray.
