If you like rum, check out these Venezuelan rum brands. Cacique’s luxury aged version is called Ron Añejo Diplomático Reserva. Pampero has a most distinctive Ron Añejo Aniversario blend, available in a small, round bottle in a handcrafted leather pouch. Venezuela’s rums are imported into the U.S

As long as we're talking drink...I have moved from the finer single malts to obscure whiskey.

Anyone tried Woodford Reserve?
It's a super-premium small batch bourbon from central Kentucky.

Hard to find, but one of the smoothest Bourbons I have ever tried. Not for mixing, but for sipping.

Since you guys are talking about CR tonight, are there different alcohol contents for CR sold in Canada vs that sold in the States? I could be way off here but I seem to recall years ago that you could buy in Canada a 60 or 70 proof version that was even more sippable (no ice prefered) than the 80 proof stuff I find now. Anyone know or have I just lost too much gray matter? :thinker:

I thought 114 Old Grandad had something to do with it's age, but turns out it's PROOF! That's 57% ethanol, and not far off the alcohol we fix tissue and use to decon the lab. Seems to me, that stuff's gonna take the skin off your poor tongue, and it's the reason why I'm not a fan of Wild Turkey (102 proof). Single malt Scotch and Cognac run about 40% (80 proof) and Jack Daniels Black is 86 proof. I'd think anything around 100 proof and above would be considered mixing whiskey. :dunno: It'd be great in a bong, though.:D

And lest we not forget the Wildman Special: equal portions of Jack, Tequila, Vodka, and Coke.

We boycott Jack Daniels around here.

Ever since they dropped the alchohol level in their Black Label brand (to 80 proof) and chose to NOT tell the public and continue to sell it with the traditional 86 proof Black Label and the same price....

Hell, I never noticed till one day a few years back I read the label for some odd reason, and said WTF??? When did they do that?

Screw them. J.D. is old school, there are a hundred smoother blends out there than theirs.;)

[Dark_Knight7096]

I know about the whole dropping of the alcohol content, i just get the normal everyday stuff. Nothing fancy. I only get down on it cause it is oldschool and that's one of the first things i ever had. I really don't drink it too much anymore, i have a bunch of friends from the Ukraine so we usually hit up the imported vodka. I'm tryin to get in shape though so my consumption of alcoholic beverages has tapered off.

Mike,

Don't let the proof fool you! This Grand-Dad I referred to is smooth as hell. Jack Daniels, being a whiskey not bourbon, is trash. That ***** I would not give to my worst enemy!
The age has everything to do with it and being bourbon, not whiskey is the difference.
My Sister-In-Law gave me a bottle of uncut, unfiltered
(George T. Stagg) bourbon at 138 proof that is definately for sipping, not mixing. Again, very, very smooth.
Turkey 102 is also very good, but IMHO Old Grand-Dad is so much better, just like Woodford Reserve with a lesser proof.

Mike.

Mike, Jack Daniels, being a whiskey not bourbon, is trash. That ***** I would not give to my worst enemy!
The age has everything to do with it and being bourbon, not whiskey is the difference. Mike.
I'll remember not to ask for any when I come for a visit; but, just to set the record straight: "There are strict laws (http://www.straightbourbon.com/27cfr5.pdf) governing just what a Bourbon must be to be labeled as such. For example, at least 51 percent of the grain used in making the whiskey must be corn (most distillers use 65 to 75 percent corn). Bourbon must be aged for a minimum of two years in new, white oak barrels that have been charred. Nothing can be added at bottling to enhance flavor, add sweetness or alter color."
"Jack Daniel's, is not considered a bourbon because it is charcoal-mellowed -- slowly, drop by drop, filtered through sugar-maple charcoal -- prior to aging, which many experts say gives it a different character. The process, called the Lincoln County Process, infuses a sweet and sooty character into the distillate as it removes impurities. But up to and after the charcoal filtering, the Jack Daniel's production is much the same as any other Bourbon. Jack Daniel's and George Dickel are two fine Tennessee Whiskeys though neither can be called bourbon."
Of course, I, in my advancing years, have turned to single malt Scotches and Congac, mostly. I'm still a fan of Jack Daniels, though, and there are times I'll sip some when the mood hits.:D

Mike,
I am no expert by any means, and did not mean to insult anyone by what their tastes prefer.
There is whiskey and there is bourbon. I prefer bourbon as it is generally smoother in taste than the whiskeys' such as Jack Daniels. Winter is when I do the most "sipping" preferring rum in the other months. Of course beer is always welcome.
I have tried Scotch many times in different ways (straight, w/water, etc.) and cannot seem to develope a taste for it. Congac, on the other hand, . .
I guess I should think more before opening my mouth. But hey, it's all good times!

Oh, c'mon Mike, you didn't insult anyone, and can like or dislike anything that suits you,or not ...even if you are a neener neener booger head.:neener:

I think, with Scotch, especially the single malts, it's an age thing, most likely, the older we get the more we can spend on stuff we think is supposed to make us, um, sophisticated, swave and deboner. BTW, most of us drink the stuff neat, and I like it in a brandy snifter, to enhance the aroma. It's almost as much enjoyment to sniff as sip it. I have not tried it in a bong, yet, although we filled one with wild turkey once, ...many years ago.;)

Sapping Jack Daniels' Strength

NASHVILLE, TN-September 30, 2004 — One connoisseur says he's sure that Jack Daniels "is spinning in his grave." <!-- This is for the middle ad --->




<TABLE class=articleimagetd cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=3 width=120 align=right border=0><TBODY><TR><TD class=articleimagetable width=120> Click Here for More WPVI.com Bizarre News (http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/news/bizarrebazaar/index.html)
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>That follows word that the famous "sippin' whiskey" has lowered the alcohol content of its Old Number Seven Black Label.

The whiskey now registers 80 proof, instead of 86, and some drinkers feel betrayed.

Modern Drunkard magazine editor Frank Kelly Rich says the company cannot get away with messing with a legend.

The company says most customers prefer the less potent mix. But there are still higher-kick specialty versions on the market.

Some critics allege the company is trying to save money by watering down the whiskey. An online petition asking the company to switch back has gathered about 700 signatures.

OK....I'm back in Rochester at one of the best package store I have ever graced.

I found the 114 grand dad....but backed out when the owner pointed me to something special.

Eavan Williams single barrel. The barrel was shipped to their store 9/98 and the bottle I bought was filled in 2002. It has a special label indicating the dates, the barrel number, and the bottle number.

Sweet!!! And good stuff. Barreled special for this store.

They also have a barrel of your favorite Haggis!!!! The bottles are all numbered dude! And here's the kicker....
The owner offered me the Barrel!

OMG. I magine a barrel, empty of course, of Glenfiddich. Don't quote me...I need to go back and check, but I think it's the 30 year stuff. What a conversation piece.

Good deal for ya' Barry. Once you finish the bottle, go find Grand Dad to drink with you.
And maybe a stogie to go with it? :D

Did we ever find who got Logan all riled up?

Or is this now officially an alcohol thread? In that case, Crown Royal for me when I'm feeling Canadian, Knob Creek when I visit my sister in Louisville and Iron City if I want to damage my body.

Marc,

Whenever you plan on coming down, let me know as I live in Louisville. :alone:

I don't drink very often anymore, but I do like a 'good' beer like Sam Adams, and I guess a yearly 'brain cleaning' with some Jack Daniels is OK too.

I won't smoke pot again until I retire because I could lose my clearance.

But some day...
