It's time to forget politics, the debt, AR prices, and get serious. I prefer Evan Williams. It has more "character".

Black Jack, the name sings.

Evan and Jack are for when you run out of Glenlivet.

Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

Oh gee...that's a tough call call.
I love both, I have an unopened bottle of Evan Williams 1994 single barrel in my liquor cabinet that I bought for my dad for Christmas in 2004 and he died on Dec 16th before I could give it to him (along with a Ruger Redhawk .44 Mag.) I'm going to open it and make a toast when I reach the age he was when he passed which will be in 2026.
That said, I got a Jack Daniels gift pack for Christmas and I am abut to open it and have a snort. I lover Jack straight up because it is just soooo smooth.

Evan Williams is a lower shelf Bourbon about four years old. Jack Daniels is about the same age, but is adulterated and cannot be called Bourbon. Spend a bit more for eight year old Buffalo Trace and see what real Bourbon tastes like.

Jack is over priced in my opinion. I will take the Evan Williams for the cheaper price. If I am going to spend more, there are many good/better choices than Jack....Buffalo Trace, Weller, Woodford, Makers, etc

Neither... Crown for this guy....
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

It can't be called bourbon because it does not come from a particular county in Kentucky. When I started in on Jack Daniels,they made a Green label,86 proof, and Black label, 90 proof.They rationed the Black label by requiring stores to purchase 3 cases of Green for each case of Black label. When I quit it in 1985, you could buy 2 bottles of Evan Williams for what 1 bottle of Black Jack cost. Now y'all are comparing them side by side.I wonder what's changed? But I ain't takin' a drink to find out!

Black Jack is now 80 proof, I understand, and Evan is 86 with some "taste".

80 PROOF ????
You can't be serious. That's canadian crap standard.
The bottle label always said ;"90 proof by choice".
