On a side note, was in the liquor store the other day and someone was recommending Knob Creek. I think it's made by Beam. How is this stuff?

Can't help but do know that Brokers gin is the deal for a proper martini. Gag! The only thing gin is good for is cleaning paint brushes! When I was overseas with the AF, a quart of Jack was $1.80. Jack and I became best buddies. Back in the states I found Evan was just as tasty, a bit cheaper and gave the same results. Gave up drinking when my daughter was born.

It's time to forget politics, the debt, AR prices, and get serious. I prefer Evan Williams. It has more "character". Ditto.. It has a very similar, but much smoother, taste to Jack Daniels.. I've been buying EW for years now.. And, it's about half the price of JD..

Brother I went to college and later got a full time job so I don't have to drink either of those anymore. But, should Obama continue to crush the economy and liquor pricer soar, I suppose I could subsist on Evan. Never was much of a fan of Jack.

Glad to see a couple of you know about Weller. I love the 107 proof as it has great flavor and you do not have to drink a lot of it. Little ice or straight if you please.
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

I prefer Evan Williams of the two. Especially when I'm using it in Egg Nog.... For sipping, I'll go with Buffalo Trace, when I can afford it.
Oh, and my daughter gave me some "Bourbon Rocks" for Christmas...guess you put them in the freezer and then into your bourbon so you don't use ice and water it down.....never heard of them, but with her being a bartender and all...

The chilling effect is a sin. Cold is an anesthetic to the taste buds, and it also inhibits the evaporation of volatile compounds important to the nose. If the straight spirit is a bit hot for your palate, the addition of a small amount of still spring water, not chilled of course, is fine for rounding off edges.

I'd only use it for insecticide purposes.

Glad to see the Campfire folks have good taste in bourbon. I prefer Jamison but have found that Evan works just fine. Unbelievably, I've read this entire thread and found not one mention of Old Crow, I'd of thought Better.

I rotate between Beam, Beam Black, Makers, Gentleman Jack, and usually take Evan fishing or hunting. Preferably in a half gallon! I received some of the rocks for Christmas and am sitting here sipping as I am reading, tasty. http://www.amazon.com/Sipping-Stone...=31DSL55324RAM&coliid=I31WPM083XGZ3W
