Whiskey open.....probly one of the only subjects that’ll give gun open a run for its money.

Kinda partial to Jameson Irish.

I have been dabbling in other Scotch Whiskeys. My favorite to date is the Glenlivet 25 or 30 year olds. However, Scotch makers are doing some interesting non-year oriented bottlings to try to expand our horizons as they expand their sales capacity without having to only sell the older vintages.

Best value in a cask strength bourbon is Noah’s Mill. Just a spectacular drop of bourbon for around $60-70 a bottle and you can actually find it in the store.

If you’re in the midwest you can also find The New Riff which offers a bourbon, a rye and a cask strength. Every bottle I’ve tried has been exceptional though a little bit immature.

Angel’s Envy Finished Rye is harder to find and a little bit pricier than the others but it’s an excellent rye finished in rum barrels. The rum finish is noticeable (unlike similar offerings from other distillers) and compliments the rye rather than overpowers it.

No mention of one of Bardstown, KY favorite bourbons, or at least mine, ‘Rebel Yell’. With all of the ‘woke’ nonsense going on they may feel compelled to change the name.

A good Scotsman like me will tell you there’s no ‘e’ in real whisky.

I’m a Crown Black drinker but occasionally enjoy Blanton’s and Pappy Van Winkle. Hiccup.

Laphroaig, Famous Grouse, Tobermory, Oban, Macallan. Wife is a Scot and we go over the road every other year if we can. I get to try all the local distilleries. Cheers!

Whitle Pig Rye Whiskey. At $80 per bottle, it’s my only request for a birthday or Christmas present.

HA! Old Forrester 86 proof at $21.99 is still just as crappy as it was at about $15.00 when I was in college. Try Woodford reserve at $37.00 for a good bourbon and Woodford Reserve double oaked at $54.00 for an outstanding bourbon. Or if money is tight even Buffalo Trace is better at $26.00

Problem with the good stuff is too expensive and goes down too fast.
