General Poker Discussion Poker Forums

Bushmills is an irish whisky, not a scotch, but it's definitely nice to sip on. Jameson's is nicer in coffee though, IMHO. I'm a scotch noob, but I def like 12yo Glendfiddich over the others I've tried (12yo Glenlivet, Bowmore Islay, 8yo Glen Garrioch (2nd favorite so far)), you know, the cheeper single malts available around here (frozen-rural-ice-hell, Manitoba, CA). I find that I prefer the sweeter, bourbon-like stuff so far.

Oh and bushmills is also a good scotch

Bushmills is Irish Whiskey, not Scotch.

The Speyside 12 years is pretty deacent as well IMO, I got a special poker edition from my brother, with cards an chips, pretty nice
check it out

i don't know much about scotch but i've gotten into rum over the last while,and by far the nicest one i've tried so far is El Dorado 15 year,i'd highly recommend it if anyone's looking to branch out.

i reckon i'll try and pick up a bottle of the Balvenie 12 year old and see what all the fuss is about!

Bushmill's Black Bush Irish whiskey is delicious. Whiskey & Ginger ftw.

Lagavulin: Och, it taastes like a fecking ashhtray! I knohw, let's triple the price and sell it to ta Yanks!

i need to get into scotch. the bit i've tried i've really liked. have any of you seen this: http://uncrate.com/stuff/drinks-by-the-dram/

expensive, but a very good idea

Phillips Union Cherry Flavored Whiskey goes well with any soda, but especially Dr Pepper. Highly recommend it.

The problem with scotch is that I end up blacking out atleast half of the time I drink it. Other than that its a great thing.

I miss this thread, good bump.
Just cracked open some more Craggenmore...

What should my next bottle be?

Pimm's with ginger ale and a lemon is nice

Tobermory 20yr single malt. Its the best whiskey i have ever tried. About £35/bottle.
Made on the Isle of Mull.

..and dont add anyting to it whatsoever! (ice, water etc)

so let's move this discussion away from the smoky gentlemen's club out into the main street.

what's your guys picks for best value liquors in the $10-30 category (750ml bottle)?

whisky, tequila, vodka, rum.

i'm a noob at liquors, so right now i only have go to's in tequila and vodka.

Hornitos Reposado tequila, $20 a bottle. 100% blue agave, rested 2 months.

Sobieski vodka. $12 a bottle. ranked as the #1 vodka by the Beverage Tasting Institute in 2007.

why dont US payers form a group of 10.
Each buys a bottle of liquor.
Play a non-cash Sit and Go.

Losers post bottles to top 3 players.

1st - 5 bottles
2nd - 3 bottles
3rd - 1 bottles

hey....but thats only 9 bottles?

The winner don't send his bottle - he drinks it and then posts it to the DOJ.

write them to shove it up their collective arses!

Imagine 1 million empty bottles arriving on doorstep of DOJ!
The liquor bottle could be a symbol of failed prohibtion - ditto Poker etc etc

(btw - would this game break any laws?)
