flyphisher # Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 I seem to have developed a taste for good, taxed liqueor.... Really like Maker's Mark for a regular old evening drink.... With a little splash of well water to open it up. Special occasions got to say Knob creek or Woodford reserve.... Any other whiskey drinkers on the forum? Quote
JCrzy4Bass Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Just Jack for me sir. Nothing beats a hard jack and coke! Then there is my home made Jackonade recipe: In one pitcher: 2 12oz sprites 24 ozs water (measure with sprite can afterward) 2 large pouches of country time lemonade Whatever amount of jack gives you the kick My friend and I used to kill a 750ml every Saturday night with this. Doesn't hurt in the morning either... it's nice! Try it out! Quote
Big T Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 I like Maker's Mark and Woodford Reserve. I took a tour of the Woodford reserve distellary a couple years ago. Very small operarition, quite interesting tour. After the tour you get to sample their bourbon in the gitft shop area. I have tried Knob Creek, did not care for it. It is owned Jim Beam. I believe it is their small batch bourbon. Quote
flyphisher # Posted April 8, 2008 Author Posted April 8, 2008 8-10 yrs ago, I drank that alot..... Jack is good as long as you mixing and aint got to taste it. try some knob, makers, gent. jack, woodford, with a splash of water or try something that is good on the rocks(ice made with distilled water, though) and a good cigar......lakeside makes it that much better....

RiskKid. Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Makers on the rocks for me. X2 I've tried all the more expensive single barrel bourbons but always come back to Makers. Sometimes I enjoy a bit of McCallans scotch. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted April 8, 2008 Super User Posted April 8, 2008 Wild Turkey...No cups or mixers needed. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted April 8, 2008 Super User Posted April 8, 2008 I tried a bottle of Eagle Rare for my 21st b-day and I enjoyed it. A bit pricey, but not as expensive as Woodford. I mean to try Woodford soon. Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted April 8, 2008 Super User Posted April 8, 2008 Always been a Jim Beam kinda guy.Either rocks or with ginger ale. Quote
jasone Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Big whiskey drinker here. I've had everything from Bourbon to Irish to Scotch to Japanese. What i've tried... Eagle Rare--Not anything special. Woodford Reserve--Very nice, I'm cherishing my bottle. Pappy Van Winkle--The best that money can buy. Made just down the road near Frankfort. This one does need a splash of spring water. Otherwise the strength drowns the taste. Here in KY, Jim Beam is a mixing bourbon, only for bourbon balls and Whiskey and Cokes. We don't take it too serious. I also have a nice bottle of 12 yr Laphroaig Single Islay Malt Scotch. It is so nasty it is good. I like Johnny Walker, it is very smooth but I don't own a bottle currently. I've got two bottles of Suntory Japanese that I am saving for a special occasion. I had a lot in Japan but these bottles were hand delivered afterward. J Quote
Fish Chris Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 and give me a hit of that crack rock while we are at it :-O I can't believe alcohol is legal, or that marijuana is not {I wouldn't recommend that to anyone either, but it's certainly not as bad as alcohol}. Alcohol is absolutely the most destructive "drug" on the planet. It's too bad prohibition didn't work. The best high, is the wide open adrenalin rush, of sticking a big one :-) Fish PS, It cracks me up when I hear the term "drugs 'and' alcohol" ..... Huh ? Alcohol IS a drug, in every sense of the word. Okay..... I'm better now :-) Peace Quote

Fish Chris Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 How about a big, fat, chocolate Malt ;-) Tastes WAY better, plus you can "legally" drive yourself home afterwards :-) Peace, Fish Quote
eastkybass Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 When I do drink it is split between Wild Turkey and Makers Mark. In enjoy both it alot depends on what I have or what is behind the bar at the Resturant. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted April 8, 2008 Super User Posted April 8, 2008 When I drank, it was either Glenlivet, Wild Turkey 101, or Glenfiddich 12 year. Quote
Pond Hopper Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 When I drank, it was either Glenlivet, Wild Turkey 101, or Glenfiddich 12 year. Minus the wild turkey, and substitute Jeremiah Weed. A glass on occasion is great but never something I could drink all night Quote
telecaster Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 I dont mind a good bourbon with a good cigar now and then. Bookers ,Knob Creek,Bullit are pretty good. I usally drink Capt+Coke when I'm having a beverage. Quote

ba7ss3in Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 I wish I could go back to my old Crown days but I can't. Only allowed a little red wine nowadays. Quote
