I've been laying off the sauce recently, but had a couple different whiskies last night out at dinner. I typically stick with bourbon, but these were so good I may need to branch
out. glenmorangie quinta ruban is a single malt distilled in port barrels and was probably the smoothest scotch I've ever had. And Redbreast, which is an Irish whiskey is fairly well known, but I had never tried it. It lives up to its reputation. I had both neat.

It instantly unseated Midleton as my favorite irish whiskey.
I will get a bottle in the immediate future.

Other than Bushmills 21 which is too expensive and hard to get it my favorite Irish.

Never drank Jack much and then read a thing about Frank Sinatra and Jack Daniels and had to have it. Starting to really like Jack now. Have a bottle of Gentleman Jack and Jack Daniels Single Barrel in the collection

The frank version is really really good. Tough to find but when you do, oh man. Heck of a beverage to enjoy.

I've been drinking Crown Royal Northern Harvest lately and I'm pretty impressed with it. For $40, it's a solid bottle - maybe not world beating like Jim Murray says, but definitely drinkable.
After some research on various bourbon forums (i've been cheating on THP) I decided to try to make my own house blend. Vatting is the proper term and I mixed equal parts of these three bourbons.
It turned out as planned. Big flavor and some heat from the Old Granddad, oak and vanilla from the Makers 46, and sweet fruitiness from the Buffalo Trace. The best thing is it comes out to $28/bottle and is better than the single bottles alone.

Old Grandad Bonded is one of the best $25 bottles I've ever had

Even though I have been in Colorado for six years, I am originally from Kentucky. Bourbon is my go-to drink.
My favorite is Woodford Reserve. Great stuff for sure. I typically like to make whiskey sours as I don't enjoy it totally straight. My whiskey sour is basically bourbon with a splash of some cheap lemonade.
I also like Basil Hayden and 1792. I usually keep a big bottle of Jim Bean around for just some casual drinking. For the price it is not that bad.

How many bottles did you get out of that batch! And that sounds like a great idea!
I've been on the lookout for months for a bottle of Elmer T. Lee bourbon. It is very hard to find. Well, my favorite store finally got a few bottles in, and much to my shock, it is priced at $99 per bottle. This is bourbon that historically sold in he $30-$40 dollar range. I guess Florida has no price controls on liquor like some state. It is a very good single barrel, but, there are as good or better bourbons IMO that are better buys and less dear.
