Actually, I think that's imitation Jack Daniels, technically not bourbon!

Dickel!

The last time I drank the Dickel I ended up hiding in the beach dunes from the cops. I was 26 fucking years old. hanging out with Yalies. hiding from the goddamned cops.

Dickel!

I also got into a wrestling match and frightened some uptight medical students.

Dickels, you taste like shit, but you make fire in the belly!

there's a crap/not crap all of you should check out.

Nonno=you should be given a bottle for your comments. smooth is THE most overrated characteristic in whiskey. drink canandian drivel if you want smooth.

Deals=$13-$25


Old Grand Dad--Bottled in Bond...better than the stand OGD and about 4 dollars more. A heavy Rye Whiskey.

Evan Williams Single Barrel--fantastic bourbon, woody, spicy and just fantastic, espcially for the price.

Bulleit--I'd have to beg to differ on the sweet comment. Slightly sweet but very bitey. I love this bourbon...it's what turned me on to bourbon back when i was a Scotch drinker. This too is a very high rye content bourbon, hence its kick and spice.

Rittenhouse Rye--18 dollar bottle...fantastic rye whiskey, especially for the price.

Turkey 101
--the 80 is shit. 101 is super spice and BIG in its punch. that is a huge characteristic of all Turkey products, sans the 80.

Deals at $30 or more:


Van Winkle 12 Year Lot B--fantastic bourbon, heavy on the wheat, but very flavorful.

Old Rip Van Winkle--109 proof--good but not GREAT.

Pappy Van Winkle 15yr--prolly the best buy on the market for the price. About $40 and will make a Scotch drinker soil himself.

Ezra B Single Barrel--my current favorite bourbon right now. Every single drop is full of character and punch.

Rowans Creek--tastes like no other bourbon out there. A great buy and truly unique.

Four Roses Single Barrel-
-KY only as noted already. Again, a stellar drink and a fantastic gift for anyone who drinks whiskey.

$50 or more:

Blantons--this is a high end favorite. Most bourbon drinkers i've come across love this stuff. I love it too, but it's gift territory (thank you Saff).

Pappy Van Winkle 20 yr--I didn't dig it at first, and I tend to think anything over 15 yrs is too much, but this I dig a lot.

George T. Stagg
--Prolly more myth around this bitch than Albini's record collection. Fortunately, this shit is tangible and it's worth every bit of hype it gets. It's so highly allocated that a case is on THREE bottles!

I'm done dorking out. if you want to be gayer than gay sauce about bourbon, go to bourbon enthusiast dot com. I love that site.

I can't believe how cheap Maker's Mark is in the US. It got me into drinking bourbon in the first place. You Americans should be fucking ripped 24 hours a day.
