    I am a big fan of bourbon been trying to track down a bottle of pappy van winkles now for two years. The search continues. My favorite bourbon is Four Roses. When drinking whiskey I like Hibiki.

      Scotch is another drink I cannot go near, when I was a teenager there was an unfortunate incident with a stolen bottle of blended scotch, a stanley knife, and a science teachers car…...lets just say that things didn't end well for the car, or my appreciation of Scotch  😶

        Good thread. I do like a cocktail myself:

        Manhattan
        Gin Martini
        French 75

        Simple cocktails with minimum dilution/clearly delineated ingredients is preferable; Long Island Ice Tea (for example) is trying too hard.

              My drink of choice is bourbon.  This is the current stock in my closet:

                    OMG, probably the best bottle of booze we’ve ever had in the house, and G has already opened it!

                          I'm just enjoying a very common, and very relaxing, Smirnoff and Coke, before the working week kicks the stuffing out of me again  😠

                              You can buy it in most pubs in the UK (well, around here you can), my local convenience store also has it, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it popular. I have drank it on occasions, and always found it a little disappointing.

                                    My tastebuds enjoy the Glenlivet 15 year and the Suntory 12.  Im not much into hard liquor anymore.  Dont really drink much beer either, as it seems that anything past 2 pints gives me a headache and a hangover….

                                      RP nice collection dying to get my hands on the Pappy I have missed all the releases over the last 2 years. My understanding is Jeffersons Reserve Presidential 18 is basically the same thing and that is the best bourbon I have ever tasted.

                                        Just bought a bottle of 15 year old online from amathusdrinks.com.

                                        Ridiculous price, but I only indulge myself booze-wise on occasion, so what the hell…
