Bourbon/whiskey recommendation

Recommended Posts

if you're mixing it there's no need to drop sixty bucks on a bottle. my go-to if i'm mixing (as a whiskey sour or whiskey ginger) is maker's mark. you can get it for about thirty bucks, it's iconic, a call-brand at bars, and tastes damn good. you can get .75 or 1.75 liter bottles in most ABC stores, depending on how much you're trying to drink.

if you want cheaper than that, try something like jim beam, or early times if you've got a bottom level budget. a few bucks higher? go for woodford, bulleit, or knob creek - they'll run you between 35-45 a bottle.

but at the end of the day i say go with maker's mark.

I can get one of these here for $36 and it beats out anything else I've had, even stuff in the $80-$100 range.

i'm assuming she wants a tennessee/kentucky whiskey... scotch gets a little harder to recommend. i would drink glenfiddich for thirty six bucks i guess but i've never been a big fan. i am a macallan guy through and through (and laghavoulin here lately.)

@Your GFs favorite huddler turkey is my shooting whiskey.

@Jangler early times is legit. also in tagging you i discovered @jangler=fat and @janglerisveryfat

ha! that's fitting actually, that poo is absolute swill until you've developed a palate for it. i hated smoky, peaty scotch for years until i finally started drinking it with earthy cigars and realized how well they complement each other.

i still hate laphroigh though, it smells like bandaids.

So...which one is moderately priced and gives the most bang for the buck?  Do not drink straight...mix with ginger-ale.  Interested in opinions...especially PhillyB's.

Philly was right....Jim or Makers will be just fine most of the time.

    • Ummm not sure adding anther 5'9 180 pound soaking wet forward is the way to go here.....    
    • What has happened in HS athletics busted full force into the college world with this NIL/transfer portal stuff. HS sports has been jacked up for a long time now. You have all these "prep schools" that are basically just diploma mills for athletes who hoover up all the good athletes they can get and they're all on scholarship. Then they go out and recruit decent athletes with rich parents to come onboard and pay outrageous tuition while they tout their success at getting their athletes college scholarships. Yeah, those athletes getting college scholarships are the same ones you're giving scholarships to so that you can use them to recruit the rich kids whose parents can pay for it all. You see the same thing in youth travel ball leagues. The whole thing is just getting crazy.
    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
