>Gin
Beefeater
>Rum
Most rum is already cheap. I like Bacardi. You really can't fuck with it. Cruzan is also acceptable, especially as they make a very good black strap that goes for, what, $16 a bottle? If you haven't tried black strap rum yet, fucking do it.
>Tequila
Exotico. It's probably the cheapest, best 100% agave tequila you can get. Shits all over Cuervo for the same price, also comes in Reposado for a dollar more.

Why is scotch never watered down then? And why isn't the price currency conversion + tax?
It's actually because America's laws are shitty, and because the market is smaller so even though distillers shit on their own product the prevailing voice is the positive American review.

Never trust anything labeled gold it is just caramel color and artificial flavorings. It's how they get around actually ageing the alcohol while making you think its the same taste as a barrel aged spirit.
