Can't get it up here north of the border but, through a wine distributer I am able to order a case. Would like to hear from someone who knows their stuff and has tried it before I order.
I think expensive bourbon tastes like shit. I honestly prefer the taste of plain old Jim Beam white label to anything Ive ever tried. Maybe its because its what Im used to, I dont know. I hate Crown, I hate Gentleman's Jack and all other Jack...I had some stuff that was about $100 a bottle, cant remember the name - hated it though. [Reply]

Woodford, or MM.
I don't mix bourbon. Only Sour Mash, and blended.
I too, prefer a sipper on the rocks with just a touch of water to take the alcohol off the nose and bring out the other flavors. I am open to all sorts of suggestions however on which to drink :-) [Reply]
I like crown and water for sippin
Canadian Myst as my cheap mixup
Jack is too expensive for me but that is all I shoot at bars because it is my thing to get a shot of jack and a beer to get the night rolling.
Gentlemen jack is good
beam is cheap but i love it too
i pretty much love whiskey of all types even though it ****s my world up [Reply]
No mention of Wild Turkey? It's affordable and I find it tasty. On the rocks of course.
Also, it's done. I ordered the case. With shipping it's gonna cost a bundle but I've got some buddies who are willing to take some off my hands. I'll save a bottle for week 1. I'll need it. [Reply]

Of course Crown and Jack taste like poo, they are whiskey not bourbon. [Reply]

EDIT: I guess for it to be bourbon it has to be made in Kentucky and aged for at least two years...not much of a difference...
And at least 51% corn.
Jack Daniels is filtered through charcoal which gives it a flavor akin to licking an ashtray. [Reply]
