I once got incredibly stupid on Jack Daniels, and haven't had a taste for it since, and that was 22 years ago! I try it again every now and then, but it still don't work. Maybe I should try it again. Sounds like a mission. Guess I'll stop at the local gin palace tomorrow after work and experiment!
Dammit Chuck, now see what ya done!  | |

| If you need a professional opinon on which one is the best, Fire the pit up and invite me over and I will sit down with you and test whatever kind of whiskey you have and give you a honest opinion to you.
I believe when I leave you will know if it was good or not. |

| I've really come to love bourbon over the years. My dad was an Early Times guy..great whiskey for the money. Maker's Mark has been my favorite..better than Knob Creek and a little cheaper too, though I've been going through a few bottles of Woodford Reserve and really love it. Straight on the rocks, or with sweet vermouth to make a Manhatten..doesn't matter to me. What's funny is, the couple of bar books I have show Manhatten's made with Canadian whiskey. I thought Manhatten was in America. Though..the Canadian's sure know how to make a good whiskey (gotta have something to keep ya warm in the winter).
Irish whiskey is now the fastest growing whiskey on the market the past year or two. A little sweeter than bourbon with just as many varied varieties. Jameson is the most popular sold in the US, but I think Bushmills is pretty damn good. I saw a bottle of Bushmills 16 year old reserve going for $70 at the liquor store the other day. Would sure like to know what that tastes like.
Hey Red..if I see ya in Virginia City this September, I'll make sure to have some good whiskey to go along with a cigar..they go hand in hand with each other. | |

| Reading about all this whiskey is making me mighty thirsty!
I once drank Scotch almost exclusively, and I love the variety of single malts.
Then for a while I drank nothing but dark rums. I've got a pretty good collection in the cabinet, but I don't drink them much anymore. Like a good Brandy on occassion, usually there are cigars involved.
Friday is Martini and steak night for my wife and me and anyone else that happens to be around. 
But...my true love these days is good american bourbon. I have a bottle of Maker's Mark and a bottle of Knob Creek in the cabinet. There will probably be one tonight.
Don't like Vodka. Rarely drink TeKillya. Did I miss anything??  | |

Yeah it now goes bud,jack on the rocks.... or some places got this fancy looking strainer thing they put ice in and then dump my shot throught it and call it chilled. I'll tell ya one more thing last winter we went for a cold ride around town and I had no voiceand all phylem, so on one of the stops I asked the bar maid for honey and /jack daniels. no honey, so I got the brilliant idea to warm up a double shot in the microwave. After a bit of hesitation she stuck in the there for aobut 12 seconds. Not good enough had her put it back in for 12 more. Ok so the glass was a bit warm...the finger went into to the gllass to check the temp...good to go..I tipped that double shot and before I could even get it to my mouth the heat/steam fumes got into my eyes and stung like..well real bad.....I could not stop the stinging/watering for a bit..but as soon as I could see and stopped laughing and getting laughed at, I downed it and whammo...I could talk a little bit better...that is a true so true story.... I love that stuff..  Gonna look into these other brands though for a taste comparison test...or something like that.....I just sit on the back fenced patio with a cigar and do maybe two shots and just think about the ride. Cigars are another choice favorite thing.
Mmmmmm..... ok so it is like thirty here.... I am heading for the patio. | |

| Well, I have certainly had my share of Yukon jack back aways.....whew, it's hard to remember those days. I don't drink now.....you know the saying "instant a**hole, just add alcohol".....BUT, I have enjoyed the Yukon jack, Tequila, and it's gonna make you guys cringe but I have a nice bottle of Knob creek in the cabinet that I occasionally COOK with!!  I know the horror, right?? But if I want to stay married and not get my a** kicked at the local gin mill, I stick with water or plain coca-cola....  | |

| Believe it or not, Military Special is a brand the Class VI sells. It's not bad at all, in fact, I'm tippin' it mixed with coke as I write. The light and dark rums under the same brand are good, too, as is the vodka. Can't beat the price on any of 'em, as the average is $6.50 each.
