The taste, the strength, the feeling, it’s perfect. My favorite before EC private barrels was Russell’s reserve SiB.
I like Islays, myself, so Lagavulin or Laphroaig. Next, Balvenie 12y. Next, honestly Jack Daniels regular black label: inexpensive and smooth. Some of the High Deserts are nice, but I haven’t had anything else that really stands out.
I finished a bottle of Whistlepig red label about a month ago; I don’t care for Whistlepig, but it was recommended. It was proof to me that price isn’t correlated to how much I’ll like something.
Yes. Taste is subjective. A shot of 91 octane might be better.
Well, what do you like
Of these I’m a fan of the Suntori
The Toki? Bro, you’re so limited in your Japanese whiskeys! Miyagikyo, Hakushu, Chita in that order. I’ve seen them in the states recently. Highly recommend you try them! Toki is purely made for mixing.
Not being mean! Just think you’ve yet to experience excellence.
Awesome bar btw!
I’m a weak bitch and not afraid. Also my options are limited in my area. 2.5hrs to a real city.
That Nikka whisky is great! I bought a bottle the day after the last US election, killed it in 2 days, and was like shit that was way too much money to kill that fast lol.
Jack Daniels 200 year bicentenial bottle. Its honestly a finger above the rest. The smell is slightly honey maple. But the taste is smooth with just the right amount if bite at the very very end. 1500 dollar bottle retail. 800 to 1200 online.
