Yamazaki > Hakushu > Most Scots right now, but pic related is my personal favourite.

[bump No.7244251]

recently fell in love with Calumet farms bourbon pretty sure its wheated cause real smooth. scotch comes off too briny to me. I do love jameson especially the 12 bourbon aged extra sherry finished a few months ago I pickedup a bottle for $52.99 when its over 70 otherwise must not have marked it up since previous owners. would like to try whiskys from around the world n more bourbons. just broke n on a break

I like a Jack Daniels and Coke. There's just something about that combo that taste great and also gets you a buzz.

I like Nikka Yoichi the best, there is a reason they beat all other whisky especially the obsolete piss from Scotland.

Japan has basically surpassed Europe in whisky and knives and every other thing on earth. I look forward to the day soon when Europe is overrun by the Islamic hordes, 'murrica has driven itself into the ground by electing Trump, and then Japan will be a shining beacon of civilization

Sorry white people, your time is over and it's time you rolled over and took it like a bitch. It is the Asian 21st century.

How good is Nikka whiskey or Japanese whiskey in general?

I go for sherried whiskeys and non-peated for Scotches. Would Japanese whiskeys be something I'd like or is it full meme?

Boyfriend drinks this.

He enjoys it neat. Was looking for something similar to gift him (instead of just giving him this all the time), anyone have suggestions?

Whiskey was introduced to Japan by Scottish distillers, so you'd probably dig it.

Weebness aside. Japanese whiskey is fucking delicious. It was the first whiskey I ever enjoyed and let me get into other whiskeys.

Im moving back to Canada soon. Hows the Crown Royal Northern Harvest? Wanna give it a try.

>s-stop liking what I don't like

Surely if I was just interested in price I would have recommended Octomore. Or even a fucking Port Ellen bottling.

Surely you're a fag
>Surely
also if youre trying to make it sound like I am insecure why would I stutter on the j in just. wouldn't I be more confident in what I am saying because its backed by fact?
Also I never said stop liking what I dont like, what I said was that piss poor excuse for a scotch taste like an ash tray, something you haven't disputed. If you cant back your opinion without having to turn to insults alone then it proves you dont know what youre talking about and dont really have an argument.
also, naming another more expensive scotch doesn't prove anything, its clear that this 70 dollar bottle is what you think is the best at your maximum price range.

There is no "in general", there's high end and low end

Low end is way overpriced because poorfags have learned about japanese whisky

High end is great but it's not going to please the MUH LAFROOG neckbeards who just learned how to choke down alcohol last Tuesday, because it actually has nuances other than iodine and filling literally the entire room with the smell of smoke. Obviously, you can burn random objects while you drink, if you require that campfire experience to remind you you're a real grownup

If you want easy drinking on the cheap, stick with scotland

OP here. Bay Area. Supply and demand is a bitch. I checked every BevMo in the area and none had it. Spotted it at a little shit hole liquor store that had a mad selection of craft brew and high end booze. They had a bottle of Pappy there.

[Anonymous No.7246897]

I love Islay, Orkney, and Skye whisky. Thankfully living in Scotland it isn't too expensive.

My current favourite is Lagavulin 16 as it is easily available and pretty cheap in the grand scheme of things (£35), but Jura Prophecy and Highland Park are extremely nice too.

>Japanese whiskey
They are making some good shit. Kinda pricey but good nonetheless.
Ive had Yamazaki, some Hibiki stuff of which I really enjoyed the Harmony blend. There is some rather unknown shit called Iwai. they have a 4 and an 8 year. They have another one aged in bourbon barrels and it's fucking saintly.

Rye was either the second or third liquor that gave me a nice blackout-vomit experience when I first turned 21. So when I bought a bottle of Bulleit rye I expected to just use it for Manhattans and nothing else.

American whisky > Irish whisky

[Anonymous No.7251385]

>>7251190
I feel like Irish whiskey would benefit from having a more diverse range of distillers...there are only 7 active distilleries on the whole island. And 3 of those don't have whiskey on the market yet. There are iirc four brands of single pot still Irish whiskey on the market, and ALL of them are made by the same company. Compare this to the US or Scotland which both have around a hundred active distilleries.

Suntory and Nikka literally ran out of whiskey to sell in the proper amounts to recreate the blends because of extreme demand for their products. The shit you see there right now are probably subpar to the age-statement whiskeys that come from Japan.
