Jameson is my go to now. My standard used to be George Dickel White Label and Wild Turkey Rare Breed, but switched since Jameson is s little easier going down. I consider Jameson as "light whiskey" Did buy a bottle of Rebel Yell last week at the ABC store, king of a nostalgia thing. Not bad
Have to shop around for that one! My small town store only carries the regular Jameson and the Caskmates
Salted Caramel Crown Royal. On my 3rd bottle this month.

straight, out of the freezer. chasing with a coke or pepsi.You drinking it straight or mixing?
About 28 yrs ago, and undoubtedly a couple six packs of Mickeys Malt Liquor.
This weeks purchase, and the last couple of months as well. They are the unopened ones anyway. I have too many open ones that I need to finish up. WAY too many.
Some purchased, some traded for, and some are gifts from dear friends. A lot of this stuff is "above my pay grade" so I have to get creative! LOL
I don't know much about the Jack Daniel's Legacy Series, but a different bottle is always welcome.

I am looking forward to trying this High West Campfire. It's been getting good reviews. The Woodford Reserve Double Oak is a Chatham County ABC hand select. Thought that was kinda neat, in a non-libertarian kind of way. LOL

Trying to start an Irish Whiskey section in my shop. Not very educated on those so I thought I would start with the basics. I recently tried some Tullamore Dew that @Don had recommended to me (although the recommendation was SEVERAL years ago I did keep it in mind all this time) and liked it pretty good.
I just thought the Richard Petty bottle would look good on my shelf. And it does. Can't be that good. Two year old from Virginia? I have had a couple of trade offers on that one so it may not be around long. We'll see.

Little Book, "regular" Booker's, and some EH Taylor that I chased down and probably paid too much for.

A couple of Old Forester and a Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit. I am starting a Wild Turkey section on the shelf as well. I don't know why I have ignored their products for so long. My love for Knob Creek blinded me I guess. Still love Knob though.

I am MADLY in love with Noah's Mill, but we can't get it in NC. And a Buffalo Trace SINGLE BARREL which I had never seen before. Both of those were picked up in Kentucky by an awesome forum member friend! I've got about an inch a half to go in my last Noah's Mill bottle. Been holding off finishing that one for a while. Now I can relax on that front. A little.

That same friend knows how much I love Knob Creek so he picked me up a Hand Select Single Barrel while he was in Kentucky. I'll cherish that one for quite some time.

I tried the EW on recommendation for something good a few inexpensive and it fits the bill for that and will definitely make a fantastic house bourbon. I don't put it on the same level as the McKenna though. The 10yr Mckenna is one of the best available in that price range!@Wahoo95 , how was that Evan Williams? Be an ok house whiskey? On par with the Henry Mckenna or no? I am in the camp that thinks that Henry McKenna 10 year bottled in bond is one of the best $30 bourbons out there.

What makes the bottles in bond mean? Any real difference in taste?
Turn of the century legal designation. I guess there was a lot of questionable labeling and ingredients and provenance going on in the late 1800s early 1900s. Even now you have some non-distilling producers who buy from a distillery and bottle under their label. Slightly deceptive.
Bottled in bond was just a govt. inspection guarantee that the appropriate ingredients were used and it came from where it was claiming to.
Doesn't make a difference in taste today. But sometimes I and other folks enjoy the background/history/work put into/region specific side of a beverage in addition to taste.
