Favourite Whiskies?

By far and wide, the Johnnie-boy Walker series, Black is best (no pun intended), just has the gorgeous smoky flavour I love in everything. Enjoying a splash of it at the moment, and it's pretty rare I drink before the w/end. Red's ok, the cheapest of the bunch, but not too bad really. I can take or leave. Tried the vaunted flagship 'Blue', £150 a bottle, or a tenner per single shot...don't bother. It's a gimmick to con rich Arabs.

Outside the JW family, it's either Chivvy Regal, though I grew out of the taste, and Lagavulin. Speyside is pretty good too.

Golden Raspberry award to Jack Daniels....this should be renamed 'Jack Shit', tastes like my car's battery acid, and frankly I'd rather drink the latter.

 

I hate whiskies i dont drink them, so we always have plenty at home usualy if i dont have time or money to buy a present always give one of the wiskies i have at home

some that i have and are good to drink (even if i dont like any) are

Glenfiddich Single Malt Scotch Whisky
dimple
Johnnie Walker Red Label, green, black got all the colours lol

have few more but not sure the nanes need to check i guess another time

 

I don´t like whiskey..:smt009

 

£150 a bottle! That is expensive stuff. Hope you have a good job to stock it.

 

Depends on the origin and distillation of the whiskey/whisky.
Scotch, Irish or American. All very different. Some triple distilled eg Irish (Jameson), some double distilled (J Walker), or even single distilled like many American brands.
Always good for the arteries. My dad testifies to this. lol

 

I'd come around your place in a flash tonight Nyx, I haven't tried Green yet, it's quite rare, but I'm already out with the chaps! Yeah, I'd love to see your full inventory. Glenny isn't bad at all, not my first choice by any means but if there's nothing else, you won't hear me say "No".

ST - My line of work isn't a 'job' as such, but I get by... But like I say, Blue is just deliberately overpriced Black, plus a cap of butter in every bottle, at least that what it tastes like. Don't get me wrong, it tastes great, but not QUITE as good as Black, which is about a 7th of the price. I've had it in shot rounds with the guys to toast off the night, you could hear the tearing sound when the waiter unscrewed the bottle in our presence, so you know it was genuine. It just didn't taste like anything SPECIAL. I wouldn't give it space in my cabinet.

 

I don't drink liquor, but I do get inspired by the Blunt!!

 

It is all in the packaging when it comes to that whisky. Nonething special like the Scotch and their making of whisky;

 

I dont think its rare i see it all the time or maybe happen to be lucky

anyway all this topics with wine and whiskies made me to want to start again make some Alcohol,
some nice liquor, i like some with the cherries and another fruit i dont know the name in english
used to make them a lot when i was with my parents..

yezzir!

 

The bushmill malt irish whiskey is my very favourite. It has pretty woody taste, I just love it.....

 

Whiskey tastes like shit, but so does all alcohol, which is why I rarely drink the shit. Peppermint Schnapps for me. It's cheap as fuck, and gets the job done. Fuck the expensive and "classy" shit.

 

Good whiskey is something u learn to appreciate on a higher level of maturity.

 

Yeah, I see that. I wonder why, though. Never understood that. But I won't even drink anywhere near as much to find out why.

 

See that is where I come from too lol

But u don´t have to drink much to like it.

Yes,one can just have a shot and that is it.

 

I like the whiskey without the alcohol...

 

Jim Beam, 7 year, back in the day. I don't drink very often anymore.

 

I LOVE a smoky single malt scotch and have been known to occationally smoke a stoogie with it

There is this bar in Houston called 10 Downing Street that has a walk-in humidor and shit load of wiskey.. nice to sit down ina leather chair and smoke a stoogie and drink a bit of wiskey.

Lapraigh or Lagavulin is good enuff for me
