Anyone have an opinion on Makers 46? I just finished a pint of it and enjoyed it.

Haven't trie the 46 yet.

Ardbeg is one of those that I have to be in a certain mood to drink

It’s fantastic with a capital F. I much prefer it to regular MM

I found a couple of unicorn-ish bottles this morning. Suspicious of the Old Forester. My dad wasn't a fan...but I doubt he ever had this. Will try it after I get done with the Wellers.

Whoo!... that's got a bite to it! Got a lot of candied fruit sweetness, with a 104 proof burn...




I like it!

Got into this one the other night. It's more like a high proof brandy than a whiskey, but I bet it would stand up to ice really well

I like not having too go back in the house for either

Pretty nice for under $30... I dont really care for high rye, but this is sweet enough to balance it out

Bought a bottle of this today. Took it for a spin when I got home. Pretty smooth... I like it... But, I don’t think I’ll do it again. The $75 price tag isn’t worth it IMO. I’d much rather sip on Woodford Double Oak for $20 less.

Had a neighbor who would add smoke to his bourbon on his treager. Any of you ever try something like that?

You piqued my interest and I went too the YouTube.... Yep, it does seem too make a difference.... They were cold smoking the one I watched....

Here's a pretty good write up some different methods: https://www.whiskyadvocate.com/make-smoked-cocktails-at-home/

 

[Tipmoose]

yep. I saw them doing that at a bar on a cruise ship last year. I didn't think it turned out too well.

smoked ice sounds interesting.
