Spirits, what you drinking...

It would be interesting to know the actual percentage on JD that touched the barrels and, separately, oak ones.

Is it true that the ellagic acid from whiskey aged in oak barrels provides health benefits? Is that why Frank Sinatra called Jack Daniels "Nectar of the Gods"?

Oh, yes! Ask your liver if you don't believe me!

Pristine! Perfect! One of the great livers of our time! Awash in Dewar’s and full of health!

Going dry for a bit. Got a few minutes more...

Four Roses Single Barrel OESK. Then it sits on a shelf for several many months.

Earlier tonight I had some Redwood Empire Rocket Top Bonded Rye and an Asahi

Found out in my later years that I might be a gin man, I like it's refreshing, dry and taste good. I have had gin tonic on several occasions when I've been out socially/work. Currently mixing it with some lemon taste tonic

I just went out and bought this. It's tasty!

Hopefully not because of me, tho I was recommended this by my local booze expert

It is a easy and popular entry to gin, according to my local expert

I splurged and bought a bottle of Peerless Double Oaked Bourbon. At $95, way outside my normal bourbon price point...but I have to say...it is a lovely, sweet, smoky, brown-sugary sip. This is something I will take out only occasionally, and never in a cocktail! Worth it? I think so, but there's no denying that there are so many wonderful bourbons available for half the price (which is why I am such a bourbon fan, actually).

I think I prefer Tanqueray.

Over ice. Tasty!

Four Roses is under appreciated.

Four Roses is under appreciated.

There was a point when I had been served some that wasn’t very palatable and I avoided it for a while. Dunno what I was served back then, but today’s Single Barrel offerings are legit!

 

[Laserjock]

Four Roses is under appreciated.

The Small Batch is a good choice

 

[Johnkeizer]

Wild Turkey Rare Breed is quite nice , although my favourite is Hibiki Japanese Whisky.
Well there is one way above that but no longer obtainable, just as well at $1000 per bottle.

 

[Andysu]

baileys in the fridge but only touch it now maybe once a month small tiny bit due to medication

but 7up with the bond man himself

Today I'm trying Rye whiskey for the first time, in a shot glass over ice.

I prefer it with tonic and fresh lime juice on the rocks poolside
Yum

You're starting with a good one!

It has a bit more bite than regular Jack Daniels.
