Favorite Whiskey?

Me + Whiskey =

 

Yamazaki, hibiki, Nikka are all excellent

Yamazaki won best whiskey in the world at one point!

 

Lmao

 

I like Glenlivit Scotch myself , I'm not a big fan of johnny walker , although it's good , I just like Glenlivit better . A nice 18 yr old would be good

 

Excellent I will add that

With my budget I should get three good ones

 

Man I fucked up that spelling lol !!!!!!

 

Sorry. just read the post. A $600 bottle of hooch. How can we be friends??

 

Dude he's my friend first

 

I am not looking for a $600 bottle

I don't drink
No clue what drinks cost

That's my budget for the gift
Person likes scotch

Figured the experts here can help

If you drive down to Raleigh I will treat you to a drink (across from Crabtree mall)

 

The Glenlivet 18 yr old then for sure if they like scotch

 

I'm still laughing.
That's good shit

 

They may even have older

 

Yup

Will order them up after dinner

You guys rock

 

Is 18 year the sweet spot ? Or older the better ?

What about this ? Bit over budget

Generally speaking the older you can get it the better it will be.

 

Older is more "special" but in my experience taste more like water... the alcohol evaporates over time.

 

Great!!

 

Well spending $600 on water is wasteful

 

HAHAHAHAH!!!! it all comes out as water anyway.

 

Well there is no sweet spot so to speak , usually the older the better . The alcohol tends to "mellow" over time and some say the drink is "smooth" as opposed to a 4 yr old bottle of the same type
