Beam, Black or Evan Williams


I prefer Evan Williams to Jack.

One of my favorite MT distilleries did a single barrel issue of a single malt, and gave it all to a liquor store about an hour away from here. Was in the neighborhood yesterday so I grabbed a pint for $22. It's pretty delicious. Not sure of the mash bill ("single malt whiskey" requires a minimum 51% malted barley), and the lack of age designation makes me think it's under two years. Definitely worth the $22 though.

Has anyone ever said, "that rock sure makes that beverage look more appealing"?

Do you guys have any experience with brandy?

I've come to love it, but have really only bought Christian Brothers.

What other brands should I try that won't break the bank?

it's a very broad category, with cognac, eau de vie, and other "pommices" all being variations on the theme
of fermented fruit. Laird's Applejack is a great bang-for-your-buck bottle, though for summer i'd be more into a pear brandy.

Buddy of mine in Boston turned me onto this, it's a great budget brand.

The Jameson hoodie I got from a rep is the envy of the patio whenever I walk into my favorite ice house.

Had a bourbon based cocktail infused with CBD oil at dinner tonight. Felt pretty pretty good.

100%. I’m a poor ass teacher. I love Evan Williams. It is easily the best value whiskey out there.
