they can have that stuff, jack black or nothing in this house...(with water)
Ima Jack man myself (no water) :D
Get you some Ezra Brooks and you will throw that Jack away...........haven't had a drink in over 15 years but I still remember
Don't care much for Beam anyway. Makers or Black Jack, either over a little ice.
1800 to kill u for me with lemons and salt!
Lately I've developed a taste for Wild Turkey American Honey and John Grisham books. (I've read all of Tom Clancy's)

Maj, I think makers mark is a Jim beam label.Quote:

Being from Kentucky and a Bourbon lover I have to say that Woodford Reserve is the only bourbon I will buy, if there is any better I pray I never find it.
As far as Whisky goes. I sure have a weak spot for "Bird Dog" Made in Kentucky as well.Quote:

Neat chart showing various brands and their relatedness.

I usually like Makers, but I bought a bottle of Forty Creek a while back and was very pleased with the taste. Not sayin it was as good as Makers but it was good and a good bit less expensive also.
I have never had that, I will try it next time we go to dinner.Quote:
