Shouldn’t you be here? ping!
Woodford Reserve and Knob Creek are two favorites, but lately I have been sipping and very much enjoying Makers Mark.
Why would anyone want to screw up good Whiskey by polluting it with mint leaves and powdered sugar? I suppose I can understand doing that with Jack Daniels.
For those who do not know yet - when you have your Whiskey "neat" do yourself a favor and add 2 or 3 drops of water per shot - it will open up the flavors. Don't believe me? Try this test: pour your shot and indulge in a sip or two. Then add the water and try it again. You will be surprised by how much the flavor advances.
Now all I need is a Camacho or Macanudo Maduro, or an Ashton...
