Friends got me a bottle of Woodford Reserve for watching their house while they were away.

Somehow my Laphroaig bottle done went and emptied itself. I would suspect the babysitter, but you can smell Laphroaig from a mile away.

A question for the whiskey guys.
I don't have a fine taste, but can tell when I am drinking something close turpentine.
I don't want to break the bank, any good low-end bottles?
I tried Trader-Joe's brand thinking it would be something good and hated it.
I like Maker's, I used to buy it as my go-to about 10 years ago when it was actually cheaper than JD. Could buy a 1.75 L for $30, then they got on their ad campaign and it doubled in price.
What are some good low-end whiskeys? Evan Williams has been on every low-end list I've seen, but for some reason havent tried it yet.0 -

Aren’t Buffalo and Elijah around the same price point as Makers?
Evan isn’t bad for the price. Wild Turkey and Kilbeggan are some good, cheap options.Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -
I was going to say, dude asked for cheap options. I have had a lot of Evan in my day. Like wild turkey too0

Found the Makers Mint Julep! Even came with a mini jockey silk. (Might be actual size, idk.)

I find Jim Beam or Knob Creek do nicely and aren't too bad for price.It's a hopeless situation...0

You've got some good friends. Woodford Reserve is my favorite.HesCalledDyer said:Friends got me a bottle of Woodford Reserve for watching their house while they were away.0 -
Early Times & water on the rocks does the trick, & cheep. I think it has good flavor. (Not much water)

Buffalo trace is cheaper than makers. I’d have to look at what I paid recently but I want to say $20-$25. Not a huge price difference but cheaper for equal or better quality. I mean the guy doesn’t want to drink gasoline I’m guessing.0

Indeed! Last time they got me a bottle of Delirium Tremens (a Belgian ale, voted best beer in the world).markymark550 said:

My local Sam's Club had Maker's 46 for $21 a bottle last week. Loaded up on that. I usually stick to Eagle Rare, Buffalo Trace, and the Jameson line, but I couldn't pass up the 46 at that price.0

Ugh, PA is so god damn expensive0

Damn! For 750ml? That’s like half price!bflynn1 said:My local Sam's Club had Maker's 46 for $21 a bottle last week. Loaded up on that. I usually stick to Eagle Rare, Buffalo Trace, and the Jameson line, but I couldn't pass up the 46 at that price.
My local store that I found the Makers Mint Julep today also finally had Green Spot which I have been looking for a long time. $56 and most outlets I’ve seen online it’s usually around $70. I could only afford one bottle today tho and I wasn’t gonna pass up the julep.Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250 -
Thanks for the input on cheap whiskey. I've tried Wild Turkey and liked it. Haven't tried the others I don't think, added a few to get next time!0

I'm breaking out the Ardbeg An Oa tonight.
If I had any friends, I'd have to share.
Good thing I don't have any friends.
