    Love the single barrel. Good sippin whiskey.

    Got over my laziness and stopped by the store today. I have the proper mixers on hand so there should be no more lapses in judgment. Also picked up some Strongbow for later tonight.

    Sorry, but...

    As long as I've been drinking Old Time Old No. 7 Brand Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey, I can't drink bourbon. Once you get the taste for Jack, the sweetness of bourbon is just not palatable. Even Gentleman Jack and Single Barrel are not "right."

    The only other whiskeys I can drink are scotches.

    Good drink - the All American. A shot of Jack and a Bud.

    Another is shots of Jack with Glenlivet chasers!

    Well, tonight I bought myself a bottle of the cheapest vodka the local liquor store had on hand. Flushed out the taste with a plug of chewing tobacco, The buzz is as good as anything else. I only wish I had a few good bones to round it out.
    I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.

    The only thing I can do from that region is Beam. Wild Turkey has too much, too much, old scratch. Never been a fan of Jack since the time I spent unloading old barrels that were cut in half from the JD distillery. Woodbridge is good or Knobridge or whatever it is ... Woodford Reserve.
    Used to do white label Evan Williams long ago.

    When we're slummin'... we'll mix our Jim Beam with Diet Coke instead of a reg coke. Not so sweet when you're in for the long haul.

    Never cared for Jack Daniel's, but, the bottle makes a great weapon.

    I've heard from bartenders that the Galliano bottle is the best for that purpose.

    And the funny thing about that jingle is that the stuff is made in France. You can even see that on the photo you used.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
