Phil, Green Label???? Interesting.

Heck, lots of the time I just drink cheap-A$$ Brokers. Smooth as broken glass.

LOL. I should own stock in the company by now.

Still working on Dickels

How are you guys drinking the Dickel? Coke? Dr. Pepper? Straight up?

Im probably going to get some today and report back.

+1. I have to say though, around these parts, Crown Royal would be my drink of choice, as I assume my fellow canadians will agree.

Crown is gross, might as well eat a bag of sugar with how sweet it is.

I will agree that Crown is highly overrated but I don't find it particularly sweet. Now Southern Comfort, (which I kinda like) theres one sweet whiskey.

Well, seeing as how I am the king of George Dickel apparantly.....lol. I'll tell you how I drink it. I don't think I've mixed whisky in at least 20 years or so. I shoot/chase it. I drink it with Diet Mtn. Dew, but that's just me. I just don't like sugar anymore. Anyways, I've pretty much just always had a glass/plastic cup of Dew and a glass/plastic cup of Dickel. I take a shot of the Dew, keep it in my mouth, and then pour the Dickel in there with it from my other glass. It's really like you're mixing the drink in your mouth. However, I've been known to chase it with Sprite as well. I've also chased it with orange juice. I know that sounds crazy, but Whisky and orange juice really tastes good to me. Sometimes I'll mix about half and half of my Dew and OJ, and then chase my Dickel.


So, here's how I do it....lol

[JOLLY]

Click on that pick and you'll see how I get my buzz...lol

[gilles27]

Knob Creek ftw!

[baritone]

Sweet Jebus, I got 2 tumblers full of God-knows-what, and I will finish them. I know there's some Jack, Coke, Coffee liquer, Creme liquer, etc., all mixed together. And I have my skate helmet on.

haha very well brotha.

The hilarious thing is that I walked mistakenly into DICKEL tonight, seeing as I made it to the liqour store ten minutes too late and was forced upon SHINER. Later on this evening (or morning) I took several shots of DICKEL via my neighbor.

HOWEVER. I cannot rate it or comment upon as I was already drunk beyond taste

that sounds horrifying

[brit84]

one of you US jobbers will have to send up a bottle of Dickel, cant find it here.

[ibanezrocks]

Crown is gross. Wiser's Reserve is cheaper and is definitely worth a try.

Jimmie!

I drink Green Label Jack Daniels. Its harder to find up North, but I have a source. The Green is considered by JD an inferior product but I think it has a smoother flavor.

[Thunder]

JD for me when I'm not drinkin' Boone's Farm.

[Petrovsk Mizinski]

I have to be horribly drink to tolerate the taste of any whiskey.
That said, there is something called "Ballantine" I think, that seems to taste a little better than all the other ones I've had.

[Laughing Kookaburra]

Word! I prefer the Islay single malts. They have a sea salt + smokey flavor. I haven't tried all of them as they are $50-$70 a fifth. Also the Irish Whiskey I've tried was very excellent neat. It was Michael Collins single malt.

The Glenlivet is the trusty standby just because it's $23 a fifth.

+1 to Islay! One I like is Laphroig.

The Michael Collins sounds interesting, thanks for bringing it up!

i was turned off from islays at an early age, but as ive gotten older i may appreciate them more. any affordable recommendations for where to start out?
