Since I'm loving the Jack Daniels so much, I had to try the other "Tennessee whiskey", George Dickels. This stuff is great!

So far, my favories, in order:

(1) Jack Daniels, Black Label (yes, old regular #7)
(2) Old Weller 107
(3) Jack Daniels Single Barrell.

I will also give high honors to JW Blank, Crown Royal.

Latest purchase:

This is a topic that has been at the center of discussion for years at every Scottish dinner that I have ever attended - I have sat in front of big open fires all over the highlands over the years bashing this one out.

There is no right or wrong - its your personal choice.

But if I was to only drink one whiskey for the rest of my life it would have to be Balvenie 12 year old Doublewood - it goes down the throat like the Devil in velvet trousers.

www.balvenie.com

You cant go wrong with any of their products.

And on the subject of gin - there is only one option for me - being a colossal gin drinker - Hendricks Gin - made in Scotland - it is a cucumber based gin - serve it with Schweppes (the ONLY tonic that belongs anywhere near gin) with a slice of cucumber - not lemon.

Try it and get back to me - if you drink gin and have never drunk Hendricks then you are in for a treat.

Andy - That's funny , I just opened a bottle of Balvenie, 15yr single barrel yesterday. My first time trying it, usually drink Talisker or Macallans. It was some fine whiskey.

I'm going to a tasting tonight where there will be some very high end whiskey's to chose from. Anybody have any recommendations?

Pretty much all the higher end Speyside single malts are good - but look at the Islay single malts as well - Ardbeg 17 year old being a favourite of mine - a fine smokey peat flavour.

I just noticed - I have been in this country too long now - I have started spelling whisky with an e in it.

Wow did I taste some fine whiskies last night and a few good armagnacs as well. The best whiskey I tried was a Benraich Curiositas very peated 10yr 92 proof. Very nice. Here's the website to the place their full whiskey menu is on the site. Next time you make it to NYC you should check it out. http://www.brandylibrary.com/sections2007/home.htm

I can't believe you guys haven't found the best whiskey yet.

Not CO, tho. Yarn fibers are probably messing with his senses.

It takes years of extensive research, travelling, tasting and falling over.

I think my problem is that I have probably tasted the nirvanna of whisky but unfortunately have no recollection of actually drinking it - thats the problem with tasting sessions - to be honest after the first couple its like feeding strawberries to donkeys - you have no idea what you are drinking.

Ah well the research continues.

Funny you should mention it. I've been knitting bottle socks for my Jack Daniels collection.

I drank George Dickel and a little Beam Rye last night. Quite a contrast between rye & bourbon whiskey. I like both.



Actually......I'm liking the whiskey so much that I can hardly drink congac anymore unless is REALLY good XO stuff.

Here's tonight's purchases on the way home from the airport. The best I can figure, I'm up to around $450 in whiskey purchases.

Andy inspired me to get the Balvenie 12 yr Doublewood.

I also found this stuff in my old liquor stash in the kitchen. I believe I was gifted it in the late 90s. I looked it up on line and I think it's over $100/bottle. It was made in 1980, 18yr old.

ALL GRANDPAS, HEED THIS WARNING: Do NOT lose your Grandkids in the Mall!

My grandson got away from me Sunday at the mall. He approached a uniformed policeman and said, "I've lost my grandpa!"

The cop asked, "What's he like?"

The little boy hesitated for a moment and then replied, "Crown Royal whiskey and women with big tits.

I'm guessing the Grandpa is Canadian!
