Red Breast 12y Cask Strength

>>15945055
based and Islaypilled, you've got best Octomore 7.3, and even Meller Corn. Plus I've heard the Signatory Edradour releases are an amazing value sherry bomb. How does it compare to that Aberlour A'bunadh? Also if you like Bunnahabhain you should try Bruichladdich Classic Laddie. You're probably already a fan if you own an Octomore though.

Also you really need a quality Irish instead of just Jameson. Redbreast 12 Cask Strength is your best option under $100 even though I know it gets parroted a lot. Writer's Tears, Redbreast Lustau, or Green Spot are all good options around $60. If you want to stay budget with Irish, Bushmill's Black Bush is way better than Jameson (more malt, less grain) at a similar price point.

Naw, I live in a non pozzed country, so most domestic stuff is fine. Only imports are a problem.
For example, the major domestic outdoor gear brand here was one of the only worldwide top quality makers that was silent during the whole blm thing. So now I buy their shit exclusively.
Laphroag never made a blm bullshit statement, so I buy their whiskey over ardfags.

Are they scotch equivalent of an american hipster beer brewery that gives its beer quirky names to stand out?

I've had a bottle each of the 10, the uigeadail, and the corryvrekan, and I didn't enjoy any of them. Their cold campfire peat is too simple and too strong to the point that it makes smelling or tasting any of the fruit or vanilla flavors a struggle.

>>15945153
Mediocre bourbon, honestly prefer wild turkey 101 to this and not because it's cheaper.

>>15946065
Alcohol not only tastes like shit, alcohol culture is full of idiots who ate too brainwashed to realize they're idiots. Every person I ever met that drank alcohol, even socially, was a disgusting shit that had no honor, no integrity, no loyalty, no respect, and no self respect. While I'm sure there are exceptions, I've never met any. Even the so called reputable ones betray their friends and loved ones in some manner within a year or two of them having their first alcoholic beverage. Take my former friend Karl for example. He was a really great guy. He was decent, honorable, and well respected. Right out of highschool he started drinking socially. Eventually he became a backstabbing, thieving, evil piece of shit. I wasn't just the alcohol that changed him. It was also the culture that surrounds alcohol. ...and he's only one of literally thousands of such individuals I've known. Each person was fairly decent...until they fell in with the "social drinkers". Alcohol turns formerly intelligent and interesting people into utter retards and faggots.

Nothing special about the Aberlour it’s just the 10yo.
The Cadenheads is a 10yo Ardmore Rum Cask

>>15945446
It’s actually not an Edradour, it’s a Ballechin (which I suppose is still Edradour).
Either way, it’s an amazing bottle. Extremely meaty.

Either Lagavulin 16 or Laphroaig 10/QC. I really do like islay whiskys. Bowmore 12 was my first islay whisky and havent looked back since

>>15946753
Mind you that I am still very new into whiskys, so I haven't drunk that many of them yet. Ardbeg 10 is what I'd love to try next.

>>15946753
If you want to get bang for your buck it's always Lagavulin 16 or Distillers. Best single malt you'll taste if you're not a millionaire.

>>15946757
It's hot and peppery. Good.. ish.

>>15945055
How does the 1776 bourbon compares to Eagle Rare 10? Been tempted lately but heard mixed reviews.

Thanks in advance bro, you got a solid selection there, albeit I'd choose Rittenhouse 100 over Wild Turkey Rye.

>>15946796
Lagavulin 16 really is amazing. I'm from a seaside town and every time I take a sip of lagavulin it takes me back there. Really peaty and salty to me

>>15946818
16 is very good. Distillers puts me in a mansion den in Scotland. Reading a good book in a leather chair with a roaring fire. Smelling salt.

>>15946816
I prefer eagle rare, to me the 1776 doesn’t bring anything special in comparison

Hey whiskeyfags, I think I hate bourbon because I find it syrupy and sweet with a one-dimensional flavor. Every bourbon I've ever tasted has been hog swill. How do you prove me wrong?

One of the best cost performance Islay whiskys is Ileach. In Japan, just over 2000 yen a bottle, and can't be beat for that price. Sort of a mystery as to who makes it---some say it's young Lagavulin, and by taste, that may be true.

Women have no respect for themselves.
They choose to drink knowing the risks.
They choose to hang out with known or suspected rapists.
They choose to throw caution to the wind.
They choose to dress like prostitutes.
They choose to be stupid.
Men are not responsible for women's stupid choices.
Women just want to live irresponsibly and FEEL they should be free of consequences.
Well, bitch, there are consequences for everything.
There are evil people all over and your FEELINGS on how men SHOULD act won't amount to shit when you decide to not act responsibly. Why? Simple. Murderers, rapists, and sexual predators do not, will not EVER, and can't be made to, give even one flying fuck about your idiotic FEELINGS, you vapid feminist whore.

Anyone else not really like the Japanese whiskeys? They are too light and wishy imo, maybe I just have not tried good enough ones yet. My favorite nip whiskey isnt even expensive and its a blend (nikka from the barrel).

>>15955905
indian > japanese whisky at this point

>>15955894
Isn't a whiskey sour too try hard? Normies usually order beers, shots or coke with rum/whiskey and you're getting something that has fucking egg whites.

>>15955905
Haven't tried, won't try until they're priced appropriately. I know when sellers are trying to buttfuck me without lube and I don't consent.

>>15955905
nikka is seriously shit, not just for being blend trash, but everything they put out is awful

>>15955493
It's been a couple years since I drank it. I just remember it being quite smooth. Pretty sure Wild Turkey is already a fairly high rye bourbon, and imo whatever they're doing aging-wise just tastes better when rye takes the wheel over other grains.

>>15955501
I do, yeah. It's still single malt. I don't fuck with grain scotches.

>>15955019
My only conviction that this board has taste is that this gets posted. It's always sold out now, though.

Certainly not whiskey ones. Good whiskey is for drinking by itself and you should simply not drink poor whiskey.

Maker's mark isn't great bourbon. It's barely good bourbon. But it mixes very well in to many cocktails and is OK neat. Same with Woodford, same with Knob Creek. They're mass produced, but not bad. Decent gateway whiskeys.

Rusty Nails used to be good, then some cunts thought it'd be a good idea to change the Drambuie recipe.

Leftist faggots latched on to whiskey for two reasons:
1. It gives them a substitute for their failed masculinity (they were raised on 'real men drink whiskey' movies and decided they needed something 'manly' in their pathetic pozzed lives, that they managed to make completely gay and overpriced themselves.

2. being spoiled degenerates from broken families and bad genetics, they likely are alcoholics or lack control, have no religion, and can use alcohol to escape the intrinsic guilt of their degenerate liberal guilt lives

I've recently got into whiskey, specifically corn, because I've made Tejuino, one of the many corn mashes in Mexico.

Do you all have recommendations? Apparently in the States they sell Moonshine or White Whiskey legally too, any recommendations for that as well?

That mellow corn looks like cheap gutrot. Is it any good? or is it just another case of plebbiters trying to be 'authentic'?

yes, because mutts really need more corn in their diets LOL

>>15956313
Old Grand-Dad 114. It's 63% corn.

At first I thought it was bad because it was cheap , $20, but for being cheap it wasn't too bad in taste + smell and had nice feeling to it.

>>15956330
I mean it's not bad to eat corn unless you don't work out and eat right.

>>15956367
If you're on the pleb American diet(almost all s o y and corn) it's highly likely you're not doing anything right.

>>15956400
No soy, I refuse to use anything with that but I'm on the 1800 calorie diet + working out, running, sit-ups, push ups and leg lifts. I've already lost 13lbs within two 1/2 weeks. It's probably not the best to loose weight but it's a start.

>>15956419
stop thinking in terms of "losing weight" think "burning fat as fuel during vigorous exercise"
you're not planning on doing caloric deficit diets throughout your life as you put on a muffin top are you?

>>15956460
I admit I'm over my BMI and for the job I'm trying to get needs me to meet their requirements. This is only temporally until I'm clear for training and secured the job. Afterwards I'm going to have to find a better way but I'll still continue working out.

>>15956942
If I want a peat bomb I might as well go all the way and drop a few extra bucks on the Lagavulin 16. If I want something more subtle and easier to sip at a similar price point I'll reach for Caol Ila 12

>>15956995
Lagavulin is not a peat bomb, I find the peat much more subtle than other Islays like Laphroig

>>15957005
To my taste Laphroig crosses the line from peaty to medicinal/astringent.

I'll give them a pass on these two alone.

all of /ck/ is watching you guys being gay and laughing

Just got my first bottle of lagavulin 16, what am I in for?

>>15957127
BLYAAAAT

Thoughts:

-That is a fuckton of peat, where is the taste?
Seriously, I am looking for the depth. I dramatically like the NAS laphroags more. Maybe this will grow on me.

>>15958491
Also maybe it’s because I am naive, but for a peat bomb, I thought the ardbeg 10 actually tasted better. I’m not wowed, and waiting for it to unravel.

>>15955290
Dangerously based

wt rye or bourbon
fuck all this overpriced soy-approved shit

>>15956214
>Which liquor is the most versatile
vodka and rum
>what are some simple cocktails I should start with
cocktails are gay and are not worth the effort to make them, mix it with whatever soda/juice or other shit you got a home
or buy a nice whiskey and drink it neat like the rest of us here

>>15956229
Good recs, and once your palate is ready you can upgrade to knob creek 12, or maker's cask strength

Curious how drinking whisky neat is associated with more hardcore drinkers but i drink way less now that i like to sip on quality stuff than when i was smashing mixed drinks and beer.

>>15959062
I get way more drunk on beer and mixed drinks than when sipping a few drams of whisky.

>>15956214
Choose a cocktail (or two or three) that you think you might like and build from there. Would you like a spirit forward drink then something like an old-fashioned, brandy manhattan or martini, something lemon/lime based and sweet then a some kind of sour, rum based and fruity then something tiki, something sweet and decadent then something like a grasshopper or white russian etc.. Consider what spirits you actually like already.

As for recommendations, the Last Word or any one of its many variations.

>>15958491
We told you that Uigeadail was better, bro.
We told you about Diageo, bro.

i love Cardhu Single Malt Whisky, its just a bit pricier than the average but its great

>>15945964
doesn't it have the star of mole{h on the bottle?

>>15959198
Not him but thank you for not being critical and elitist and actually supplying a helpful comment

>>15944845
Bunnahabhain 12 year was always a favourite of mine.

>>15944868
With a splash of water is the superior way to drink whisky anyone who disputes this is a yank mutt larper. You nose it, let it sit, add a splash of water, anywhere from a drop to a few tea spoons depending on the malt. Let it sit for 5 minutes, take a sip every few minutes. Let it open up with the water and a bit of warmth from your hand. Don't neck it.

>>15945055
Longrow, Springbank, Bunnahabhainn, good taste.

>>15946288
Yes Ardbeg is shite.

>>15946757
Pick up a Bunnahabhain 12 if you can.

>>15955307
Exquisite taste.

>>15960668
>no goldrun rye

>>15960624
adding normal water to alcohol creates heat and literally burns up your whisky

I like it. It's got a bit of a floral funk that reminds me of Elijah Craig 18 (when that was still affordable).

Make $120k/yr.. wife files for divorce. :/

>>15944858
And if I were to search "shill" I'd find less of your posts?

>>15955019
>Irish is the best.
Redbreast is great stuff. Butt Irish whisky overall fucking sucks ass compared to every other country's. Even Jap and Canadian are overall better. The Irish need to step up their game. They have no excuse anymore since the English are a meme nuisance to them now.

>>15944845
>Looking to buy something new?
Yea, a discontinued Connemara Distillers Edition has caught my eye. And I'm thinking of picking up Aberlour Casg Annamh and Bowmore Dark & Intense 10 as well to get free shipping.

Not that I need any more whisky. But buy while sales are good, I guess.

>>15960668
>all that Sazerac
>4/5 of the shit unopened

picked these up on a whim

>>15948745
this is the way

>>15955844
Very nice. Wish I could find the rye version.

>>15956336
another contender

>>15960641
fuck u

for whiskeys that are reasonably available
Wilderness Trail Rye
Ardbeg 10
Old Forester 1920
Arran 14

Lagavulin tastes like smoked oysters. If I wanted to taste smoked oysters, I'd buy a tin of smoked oysters at the dollar store. At least Ardbeg and Laphroaig offer flavors I can't find at the dollar store. Fuck Lagavulin.

>>15961220
>Laphroaig offers flavors
>smoked band-aid
>iodine band-aid
>sherry light band-aid

Yea, ok.

delicious

Lagavulin 16 and Ardbeg Uigeadail

what's a good cheap whiskey? I just enjoyed old overholt
>drunk hands typed this

>>15949291
Oysters, ginseng, artichokes, figs, chocolate

>>15963063
gotta get one of these before they neuter it

>>15963150
>i'm parroting a schizo from isle of man word by word

Don't know that much about whisky but when I do drink it I get this.

>>15963153
I mean i cant even get ahold of the 15 atm and the 21 is the only one that still holds the most value, so naturally if I'm hunting one it'll be Parliament, but also if the old man is right that they are lowering the proof and chill filtering their core range then your REEEEing will be seen as damage control via Big Scotch and libel against a public informer.

>>15963328
i don't fomo over particular distilleries anymore. if one decides to drop quality in hope of more profit, i can always take my money somewhere else. at this moment, there's literally hundreds of new distilleries working on promising future products.

>>15960668
reddit

>>15963167
It's pretty good a bit boring after you get used to more intense flavors.

>>15944845
Just bought a bottle of this lil nigger, absolutely can't wait
It's going to be extra yummy!

>>15961244

>>15947603
Damn. I didn't realize until looking at this pic that Southern Comfort was from New Orleans. I've never seen the 100 proof version, though. I'll have to look for it.

Tried this one at a bar a year ago, absolutely wonderful whisky. Thinking about buying a bottle soon.

>>15947183

>>15963973
Usually keep a bottle around. To me, it tastes like a campfire smells.

Liquor store I was at today wanted 300 fucking dollars for this
I walked out without buying anything

>>15966843
you WILL buy the limited edition and you WILL be happy

>I think I hate bourbon because I find it syrupy and sweet with a one-dimensional flavor.
I have this same issue with bourbon. The least boring to me was four roses single barrel but everything else was like drinking pancake syrup with a touch of banana.

>>15955019
I've tried the 12, 15, and lustau. Never going back to the cheap jameson bottle after those.

>and over here is my whiskey collection...don't touch! Yep, here is where it all happens. My proudest bottle is this unopened 75-year Talisker! Drink it? Never! It can't be opened! I keep the highlanders here in case i fancy a peatier dram, and the Speysiders are here for when I have an urge for something more stony and smooth!

No. I have one that works every single time.

>>15958221
Who cares, there's only standard. The standard.

>>15963328
It was announced that Glendronach will start chill filtering. Just wait out the panic buyers, you have 15 years left of the recipe as is.

glendronach isn't that good anyway.

>>15968207
Sexton is pure Reddit.

>>15966843
Same experience a few weeks ago except it was Full Proof and they wanted $450. Oh but buy any 3 bottles $50 or above and then it's only $300!

I bought Alberta Premium Cask Strength Rye for $65 instead.

>>15968530
I'm really hoping they start distributing the 70cl bottles in the US so theres more availability even if the price is at least staying where it is now. Apparently the tariffs arent gone, but only frozen and the catch for the higher availability will be at the cost of the tariff being permanently instated. I vote "Taxation is theft."

what's the Johnny walker, Captain Morgan of gin?

>>15969081
Beefeater it's the closest I suppose, however it's not really that bad as the other two either

>>15960668
The Blantons shelf pretty much ruins any chance of this not being completely cringy and reddit as fuck.

>>15966843
literally cheaper to fly to louisville and visit the BT distillery

>>15968658
It looks reddit but does it taste reddit?

>>15957067
Not him but in Texas anything BT is difficult to find. Regular BT itself is the easiest, I have also come across Eagle Rare literally once in the past two years. Taylor, Blanton's, is non-existent.

That being said I finally did get Blanton's. Brother-in-law gifted it to me. He won't tell me how he got it but he knows a lot of people.

I would say it's been a fantastic bottle too. But Rare Breed is probably my go-to. Great taste, great value, easy to find.

>barely legal
what does that mean

>>15970720
Just turned 18

>>15970720
just enough rye in the mashbill to be considered a rye whisky

>>15970734
but the one you got is 9...

Should I get Redbreast 12 or GKS Artists Blend? My goto has been glenmorangie orginal to this point, looking for a new desert/brunch whisk on a budget I suppose

>>15963973
quarter cast is better.
