I used to drink Jim Bean because of the price... I have 3 bottles of Jack Daniels in my pantry right now.
i recently bought a bottle of canadian ltd (really cheap) and it tastes decent with 7 up but not nearly as good as crown 7. there has to be someone who knows of a relatively cheap whiskey which tastes good.
Makers Mark.. You're not going to get good stuff cheap.. it's like the sams choice colas.. You're gonna have a hard time finding a good drink at the well price tag.. spend the extra 3-6 dollars a bottle and get something good if you are drinking it to enjoy.. If you're young and just want a cheap buzz, get canadian club..
I burned myself out on bourbon a couple years ago, and have been strictly doing Canadian or Irish whiskey since. To me, nothing beats a good Black Bush/Bushmills/Jameson's/CC and water.
makers mark is really good too...i was just trying to see if anyone knew of a whiskey which could be compared to titos vodka (not very well known and good).
I probably don't have the greatest tastbuds in the world, but I really used to like Teachers as a cheap scotch. Crown Royal is overpriced Canadian crap, imho. More about the label than the scotch.
I like whiskey, namely Scotch, a lot, but I like mine neat (straight-up, no chaser) for single-malts or on the rocks for the good blended ones. I think my uh drinking habit/costs might be a bit out of what you had in mind. I also agree that you get what you pay for with whiskey. If you are willing to splurge, it is great. If you just want a buzz, any whiskey will do if you mix it with the right combination.
HMMM, best whiskey, Crown all the way All though I had some 151 bacardi rum the othe day that was good. Crown still my fav though.
