Bourbon, Whisky and Scotch

Avoid Laiphrog.  Liquid arson.

I agree, but my father-in-law loves that stuff. VERY strong peat flavor.

Once someone has burned off all their taste buds, they start liking peat.

Haha, maybe!

He's got a large variety of scotches and likes most of them. He's the one that got me into scotch with MacCallum and especially Aberlour.

Yeah, Laiphrog was the sample that was it.  A nope for me.

It sucked neat, with a splash of water, with ice, mixed with coke.  Worst brown spirit I've ever had.

Been banging through some E.H. Taylor Straight Rye for the past month or so.  Got one bottle as a Christmas present and found it at HyVee over the holidays for either $75 or $80.  So darn tasty.  Will be moving over to try their small batch after I work through these two bottles.

I have a client proposal coming up and if it goes through I'm definitely buying a Michters 4 pack which includes their 10 year bourbon which I've heard is life changing.

I've been keeping an eye out for E.H. Taylor around here.

If looking for a good handle of Scotch on a budget, pick up Famous Grouse Red Label.  Very good for around a $40 1.75

Found this!  Balked at the $100 price tag, but regret not getting it now.

If you are looking for one that mixes well with a store brand diet coke...try Evan Williams.  Mhmmm!

What are your initial thoughts on it?

My thoughts...if it gets your drunk...it works!  Ha

Never had it, but love their other "lesser" brands, Buffalo Trace and Eagle Rare.  Poured some Buffalo Trace last night and didn't want to put it down.  So good.
