Modoc Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Scotch is my go to, for inexpensive Kirkland isn’t bad. Really prefer Glenfidich 18+, but……. Bourbon just doesn’t do it for me, might be my blood lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DenC Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 Only tried Jim Beam for Bourbon and did not like it much. However I do like Scotch! Johnnie Walker Red with Sprite - if on a budget Johnnie Walker Black or Chivas Regal - if I have some money Johnnie Walker Blue label, my absolute favorite! - if loaded Did not like the single malt types so much like Glenfiddich or Johnnie Walker Green.

Sawlsville Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I'm a scotch guy for sure. Macallan, Oban, and Glenfiddich. Have never been able to acquire the taste for Bourbon... I keep trying from time to time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Watson Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I quit ringing the changes on Scotch and settled on Irish, Jameson in particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOneTrueAndre Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Incoming pretentious post... Depends. I like to try things and compare, although my tastes are fairly specific nowadays. On the rocks? Scotch, preferably Islay something, something real peaty. I'm a fan of Laphroaig 18 but some of the speysides are super smooth and despite the lack of peat are hard to deny the quality of... The Balvenie makes some of the easiest scotches to scotch that I've ever scotched. Highland can be boring but Oban is good in a pinch, I'm not a fan of the big names which tend to be Highland as that's where most the landmass is. Japan's got some real real solid offerings the past few years, although in my experience they don't really go peat-forward but I'd never turn down a chance to try some of the older Hibiki whiskeys. Mixed? Bourbon. A proper whiskey sour is a beautiful thing. Usually go for Buffalo Trace cause its cheap and delicious. Some of the more obscure Coffey stills are interesting.

392heminut Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 I'm not a fan of scotch or bourbon, Irish is my thing. I generally drink Jameson on the rocks, but when I want to go high quality it's either Greenspot or Egan's Conviction. I think Conviction is the best Irish whiskey I've ever had.

Paul B Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Just a comment: In Scotland Scotch is called whiskey and most do not have the smoky peat taste. If you get some aged in wine barrels from Spain it is soo smooth. The whiskey aged in used whiskey barrels from the US has a bit more bite. Scotch is normally aged at least 12 years and often 20 years as compared to 7 to 12 in the US. The Scottish people would never drink scotch without a drop or two of water to bring out the taste. I like all the scotch aged in wine barrels. For liquor it has to be Belvedere vodka - the smoothest. Maybe I am a woose but i like smooth drinking spirits.
