Whiskey/Bourbon

[NextJen]

Ok, I know it's not food or even nutritious, but I do enjoy trying new/good bourbons.

So, what is your favorite? I've tried a lot of good, and some not so good whiskeys.
One of my favorites (that I can never find anywhere) is Blanton's.

Cool! Maybe I'll branch out to some Scotch Whiskey for a change of pace.

I really like 8 Seconds but it is very hard to find in the east. Pendleton is a close second. There are better whiskies but they are great for the price.

Another good one is Woodford Reserve. Their Double Oaked version is even a bit better, but not a whole lot better for the price difference.

I'm a Scotch gal, so can't really help with bourbon, unless we're talkin' Cherry Bounce, egg nog, or Mint Juleps. In which case, you can't really taste the bourbon so much.

Hey, no need to call people names. If you don't care for bourbon, just scroll on by. Jeez.

Anyone ventured into infused bourbon? For a change of pace, make some bacon-infused bourbon. Easy to do. Adds a nice smoke/flavor to it. Can take a cheap/average brand and make it pretty good. Last bottle I did was some basic Beam Black and it was a hit. Have even done bacon-maple but you need to be careful or you can end up too sweet.

Cherry Bounce is infused bourbon...or Rum, or Vodka...

I like Knobb Creek and Bulleit.

And sadly, I adore Jim Beam Red Stag.

In the strict sense that they are all distilled spirits you are correct but in other aspects of the process there are huge differences that result in unique flavors. I challenge you to taste an Islay scotch and confuse it with a Kentucky bourbon.
