Bushmills' or Jamesons' will do me just fine.

Macallan 12 yr or glenlivet 18 yr

I'm still new to the Whiskey world, but so far, I prefer the blended types over the single barrel. Not quite sure why yet. Maybe my palette is too inexperienced with it. So JW Red Label and Chivas are the ones I enjoy the most at the moment. But the experimentation continues.

Woodford Reserve... not very experienced, but i like it a lot!!

Well if we're adding whiskey to the whisky conversation, Ezra B is a fine single cask bourbon and my current favorite.

For me it's hard to beat a good Irish whiskey. Either Jameson or Bushmills, straight up on the rocks. MMMMMM.....

Ill agree with you on the bushmills, its a fantastic whisky, but im afraid i dont like jamesons. also i like my whisky with water, not too much (jus a wee drop), just enough to release the vapors and aromas, makes it taste ten times better.

Just tried a new whisky for me, Sheepdip, its a scoth thats distilled for a complany on Gloucestershire. the whisky itself is 8 yrs old but it has been sta in the bottle for over 20 years, waiting for me to crack it open. its was really fantastic, nice and light with a apple/cider flavour, just the sort of thing i like. however the thing that struck me most was a really poweful aftertaste of pears, its exceptionally strong, i can still taste it over an hour after i finished the glass. i would really recommend this whisky especially if youre a pear lover, imagine gently poached pears in lemonade (great recipe) and youre there.

I love all styles of Whisky!

it all depends on my mood

You guys may laugh at me, but my favorite bourbon is Wild Turkey 101.



Oh, and this is my first post. Looks to be an interesting group of people. I look forward to contributing here.

Hmmmm.... I have a bottle of Sheep Dip but don't believe I have every thought of pears when drinking it... will have to consider that next time I open it up...

My everyday would be either Crown or Jameson... prefer the Jameson and also really like the Jameson 12 YO... have not tried the Jameson 18 YO yet but would like to... it's just hard to find...

Bushmills and Bush Black are okay in a pinch...

It just depends on my mood... several others mention in the thread also work for me... Elijah Craig, Makers, etc.

Oh almost forgot... for a cheap canadian whiskey the Canadian Club 12 is not bad either...
