Default Favourite Spirit?

Well, seeing as the beer one is doing so well and there has been a lot of debate, lets make this one now

I'm torn between Tennessee Whiskey (JD + George Dickel) or White Rum (Bacardi)

I consume both with coke

I also love Vanilla Vodka! and CC


AND DAMN ALL THE PEOPLE WHO CLASS JD AS A BOURBON... I KEEEEEEL YEW FARKEN


I just noticed i have Bacardi and White Rum as two seperate options up there... If a mod could remove the 'Bacardi' option perhaps and add 'Rye Whiskey (Canadian Club etc..)'

Johnnie Walker for me.
Looking for an excuse to crack open the bottle of blue label I bought in Malaysia in 2005.
I did however, buy a pack last year when we went overseas which had a small bottle of blue label, just so I could try it.

The wife did bring home a bottle of port from work that is over 30 years old. Can't wait to crack that one either!

Johnnie black is good!

I actually prefer Johnny Gold over Johnnie Blue too.. tastes smoother to me!

Never tried Johnny Green

Yep. Get's mixed in with Coke, so it tastes fine to me. Actually, the only one's I've tried neat are green and blue. My mini pack has a bottle each of the black, green, gold and blue. So far, I've only cracked the blue from that pack.

The wife drinks Jameson's as well.

I used to work at an Irish pub, tried numerous Irish Whiskeys.. this was by far my fav, either on the rocks or by itself. Bloody good value at under $40/bottle. Much better than others 2 or 3x the price

Im drinking pre-mixed Bacardi & Coke right now.. Goddamn this is sweet!

Was quite funny how the 6pack of 375mL cans was 26.99 and the 4 packs of 350mL bottles was 12.99.. So i got 2x 4packs of bottles

Alcohol always tastes better out of a glass bottle when compared to an aluminium can

One of my friends bought a bottle of Talisker Single Malt whiskey and honestly, it tasted like crap. He was giving me a hard time because I was comparing it to Jamesons.

I told him he wasted his precious money.

This thread encourages drinking about as much as your post encourages me not to say shut up

SHUT UP

thx

This is not encouraging drinking but merely exploring the avenues taken for people who have read threads on alcohol in other forums and from that have decided to take up drinking.

Family based yes, but I'd say the majority of members are 18+ and can enjoy the completely legal topic being discussed, can't see it being a problem, or offensive to anyone.

btw Johnnie Walker Black label is what I drink a lot of the time when I'm @ home. Jack Daniels when I'm out.
