| Tatum Ansaldo 18.12.2012 | Some bourbons are ok, maker's mark is pretty nice, but I'm not a fan of JD. May have something to do with drinking too much if it at university. |

| Edwina Fagel 17.12.2012 | Had a bottle of Jack with my mates this weekend. Probably nothing special, but still tasted good. |

| Erich Vallabhaneni 02.05.2012 | On my shelf right now: Macallen 18, Glenfiddich 12, Makers Mark 46, Jameson 12, and Blantons. |
| Matt Kane 02.05.2012 | right now i |
| Queen Sichel 02.01.2012 | Oh. Got a Laphroaig 12yr. Very nice indeed. Then also got Mackmyra First edition. The only Swedish whisky there is. Not one of the best I've drank but fun for patriotic (or whatever) reasons... |
| Verlene Geevarghese 02.01.2012 | Another tick for Jameson's 12 year. And neat Gentlemens Jack all evening , for those who enjoy some Tennessee whiskey. |
| Lin Danek 01.01.2012 | Got two new bottles for Christmas - 12yr Strathisla and 12yr Cardhu. |
| Celestine Porebski 31.12.2011 | Hmmm, there's two strange things about this thread: 1) Why haven't I posted in here? It's a thread about liquor after all.... 2) Why hasn't Talisker been mentioned yet? |
| Matt Kane 31.12.2011 | got some new stuff: fettercairn 15 yrs (scotland highlands) cooley 8 yrs (ireland county louth) still saving some cash for a bottle port ellen (scotland islay) but they don |

| Tatum Ansaldo 20.08.2011 | RESURRECTION TIME: just picked up a bottle of Glen Livet 18 yr. Very excited to crack it open after we exhaust the charms of this Tanqueray 10 gin with fever tree tonic. I iz indeed drunk. |
| Danae Dumler 29.05.2011 | Balvenie 12 Woodford Reserve Black Maple Hill (small batch Kentucky sour mash) Johnnie Walker Black The Black Maple Hill is my current favorite. But maybe my overall favorite would be Balvenie Portwood 21 yr old. Of course, scotch and bourbon are really two different things so you better have a bottle of each around |
