Red label Maker’s Mark over spring water ice cubes ... if you like the flavor of bourbon, it cannot be beaten. It is the second greatest export from Kentucky ... I dated the best export.
You dated Secretariat?...................
I had some neat a few weeks ago, and I must say, it's given me a much better opinion of Bourbon. Scotch, however, is still my favorite.
I’ll give the Red Label a try. I have long been a bourbon and water man, but I recently discovered and have come to prefer Bushmill’s 16 year old single malt, a triple distilled Irish whisky of exceptional smoothness and lightness.
I live fairly close to the Makers Mark distillery. November of 2012 they raised their tour price from free to $7. :-(
Mine was standard issue Jim Beam over (standard issue) ice cubes - that marriage ended bady (for me) many years ago.
Obviously you haven't tasted Bookers or Pappy Van Winkle.
