What kind of whisky - or whiskey for that matter - have you had lately?

Or maybe you have whisky every day?

One of my favourites is Aberlour - to start with a name.

ABERLOUR was introduced to me by a family friend many years ago. It is a very tasty Scotch, but the name doesn’t say “Scotch!”

Irish whiskeys Bushmills/Jamesons

American Bourbons


My dad’s late wife was German and she always pronounced it “viskey.”

I like old fashions and have been using Bulleit.
 
Not very traditional but this stuff is fantastic.

When I am speaking in German I pronounce it the same way. - Every w is a v for us.
And a v is a v or even an ef. :)

Though I have lived in Scotland for some time and still like the country, I actually prefer Irish whiskey instead of Scottish whisky.
 
Oh boy!

I’m not in a place where I can take inventory right now but, from memory, Scotch whiskys include Bruichladdich Old Laddie, Laphroaig 10 yo. Glenmorangie 18 yo, Glenfarclas 25 yo, Dalwhnnie 15, Dalmore 15

Japanese whisky includes Hibiki Harmony, Kayo, Nikka, Yamazaki and a few others plus Kavalan which is actually Taiwanese.

American whisky includes Baker’s, Booker’s, Makers, Blanton’s, Noah’s Mill, Angel’s Envy, Rossville Union, Four Roses, Elijah Craig, Willetts, and others

Oh boy, indeed. I'm coming to see you. I'll bring some, which may mean I'll end up in Sioux Falls. I once ended up in NY while driving to Pittsburgh from NC. Road signs were screwed up. Okay. I'd made the trip at least twenty times before, and didn't need signs. The states moved. That was it.

If you pass through the southern Ohio/Indiana western Kentucky area please pick up a bottle of the New Riff. Mine is hearing empty and I can't find it anywhere local.

Speaking of local, I know I have a bottle of Del Bac mesquite smoked whisky. It's one of those whiskys that's an interesting idea and has been executed pretty well but I'm not really sure it should have been done.

I'll have to check out New Riff. Thank you. It should be available around here, somewhere. If I find it, I'll send you a bottle.

I too have had some whiskeys where I've thought that if it wasn't for this one taste/smell thing going on, the stuff would be pretty good. There's just that one sour note, and it's ruining the whole song.

I like Glenmorangie :peace
 
You guys don't feel comfortable talking about this in the dedicated thread of the Tavern?
 
I'm not, but I don't drink much whiskey. I have some LDT for mixing. That's it right now.
 
Red Breast Irish whiskey

Oban for scotch

So far nothing in America compares for smoothness but there are several enjoyable ones.
