I like Irish Whiskeys or OLD Scotch (my grandfather left me some VERY old Scotch, and not one has disappointed)

Hi Lewis,
I have to disagree - though I sort of understand where you may be coming from. I never drink it straight, but like it mixed - unless the bourbon is one of the cherry or honey infused ones which I like straight. And where would we be without Southern Comfort?
Personally though, I don't think much of Jack Daniels, and I find all the more expensive versions of Jim Beam not as good as the original. The only real difference I can detect between cheaper and more expensive bourbons is smoothness. My favourite of the last 25 years is still the El- Cheapo Kentucky Gold, that I get from Liquorland.
Cheers,
Renato
