It's not known as 'water of life' for nothing. Say that in Scotland and you'll deported asap. Remember Ernie is from Texas.............. 5

It's not known as 'water of life' for nothing. Say that in Scotland and you'll deported asap. My wife's Scottish. So my father-in-law reminded me I have no choice but to like whisky. Thankfully I do. But I do enjoy bourbon and even the odd rye. 4
GusMac Posted April 11, 2020 Posted April 11, 2020 I used to do a lot of skiing when I still had cartilage in my knees and there was a great hotel up Glenshee called the Blackwater Inn which had a landlord who was from Kentucky. How the hell he ended up there I've no recollection, but it did have a great selection of Bourbons, so we sampled quite a few! Don't remember all of them but I remember Rebel Yell, Jim Beam, Wild Turkey and Makers Mark. Generally not a huge fan of whisk(e)y which isn't Scottish but they were all decent (honourable mentions for Suntory and Bushmills), so Ernie I kinda forgive you! 5
[CAT]CplSlade Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 My wife likes Maker's Mark. She's a quarter Scot. 2

Like making love in a canoe...... F**king close to water! 6

I've had 190 proof many times, but it's been a long time ago, now!! I'm afraid I'm a bit of a lightweight myself these days. Probably can't even hold my beer..... 1

That and Gentleman Jack are my in stock and go to's. Sadly, I mixed the last two ounces of Smoky in to my Saturday night after dinner coffee...and yes, it was very good! I was always a Tequila and vodka man until I tried moonshine. Now I understand why this state is famous for it. I think I need to make a run back to the liquor store this week for some more. Like I said, I don’t drink a lot, maybe a drink ever weekend or two, but you might as well have what you enjoy the most when you do. 3
