Makers Mark gets my vote. I only have two bottles in stock at this point:
Makers Mark and Bombay Sapphire
George Those WERE my gold standards. Amigo, trust me. Try Booker's. And, Hendrick's gin. You'll hate me later.................

A shot of something like that is a little much.

VA, I point out to the wife the diversity of opinion regarding fine liquor on the 'fire and she says that all that is missin' is a tobacco reference. I point out that we have that too. Thank you for that from a recently reformed smoker.

Wild Turkey, Kmob Creek and Gentleman Jack top my list. Regular Jack will do in a pinch.
Years ago my hunting buddy brough back a whiskey from Japan called Silkey. It was fine stuff.

Actually, Evan Williams Bl;ack is not too bad; it costs about a half of what Jack Damiels Black costs. It is not as smooth, but after 2 or 3 drinks, it tastes pretty good.

That's what I'm sayin'.
You don't need a shot glass if you've got a bottle.
I'm going to walk away from the gettin' the horse drunk comments that are runnin' through my head.

I buy Maker's if I have a few bucks. Old Forester when on the cheap. I really don't drink a lot of whisky, maybe 6-8 fifths a year. It just ain't the hot setup for Louisiana summers.
Now with even more aplomb

I sip a little whiskey, scotch or bourbon frequently. I always find myself using Makers as the standard to measure by. Based on the input from others, I'll have to try the Bookers.
For anyone who's into scotch, I've been sampling Three Wood Auchentoshan lowland scotch that I bought the other week and it's been very enjoyable. Interesting blend of flavors that make it complex, yet mellow.

I prefer Woodford, then Gentleman Jack, then Makers Mark. But all 3 are excellent. I have not developed a fine enough taste for the Single Barrel Jack. Gentleman Jack is charcoal filtered twice. Maybe I enjoy the smoothness?

Woodford Reserve. Although, I am currently intrigued by Burnheim Original wheat whiskey.
I own a liquor store and could take any of it home.
And have.
Winchester rifles and Swarovski scopes.
