Another dumb poll - what's your whisk(e)y?

[DeluxJonathon]

I love my jameson and johnny walker

Evan Williams.

I used to drink evan quite a bit... Cant even touch the stuff anymore.

 

[pickledegg]

None, but I reckon you need a 'recovering alchoholic' radio button.

 

[Los Doyers]

Booker's Bourbon...Tastes great and 127 proof

 

[amateursurgeon]

If you like Islay whiskies, this stuff is the shizzle

Windsor Canadian FTW!

 

[hectic]

Will have to try that.

Have to admit a serious bias against Canadian Whiskey, just don't get it -- not enough flavor, too sweet. Maybe I haven't had the good stuff.

I keep every kind of whisk(e)y at home except Canadian (and Japanese, but that one just because it is too expensive for what it is).

Even have some Thai rice whisky, very good for getting rid of pine sap (or unwanted guests). ;-)

Best stuff ever.

Single Malt Scotch is a great head. Clean burning -- no hangover.

50 posts and no mention of Johnny Walker Blue Label yet!? bunch of savages on this forum.... (At least Hectic has some in his pic)

I’m from Windsor. Hell, I was at the party when they were sold to Allied Domecq. Free CC all night and a free commemorative bottle for all guests.

If you ever come down here go to the Canadian Club Heritage Centre and get a bottle of CC Sherry Cask at the gift shop. The stuff is hard to find elsewhere and very good.

I will go for Scotch.. It is raining here today. Its Saturday. I am little free tonight. I think I will get some scotch or maybe a beer.

 

[Kerkat]

Single malt like Highland Park.

Jameson Vintage

You've been suckered in by the television commercials.....

Jameson is Protestant made Irish whiskey (mass produced, low quality) -
Old Bushmills is genuine Catholic made Irish Whiskey (extreme craftsmanship, much better taste).

Give Bushmills a try and you'll never touch that heretic brew again.

I haven't seen a single Jameson commercial.

I will find some quality bushmills though. I've heard other people praise it too. The problem is that where I live a lot of fake whiskeys are sold and it's hard to find a quality 12year old.

My Grandfather came from Ireland and he say's our family has been drinking that label for 400 years. The Jameson stuff if from outsiders that came to Ireland less than 200 years ago and try to make a version of Scotch whiskey and then call it Irish whiskey.

I have tried both and there is a huge difference. Jameson spends a TON of money advertising in the US, Bushmills doesn't advertise like that because they cannot make anywhere near the quantity to service that big of a market.

The good news is that Jameson is $2 MORE EXPENSIVE than Bushmills.
