Conversation Starter - What's Your Favourite Whiskey?

[m314]

The two 8 gallon buckets in front are 100% steel cut oats. And enzymes, yeast, and water.

The 32 gallons in the back are Deathwish wheat germ whiskey. Not a true whiskey, just fermented sugar water with wheat germ. Still pretty damn good after 2 distillations.

I heard jack gets its taste from the limestone caves it gets its water from.and yeah jack sucks

 

[polzek]

Jack is really overrated in my opinion, tons of better and cheaper stuff around

Its all flavored...

Most companies buy bulk ethanol from a huge company in Kentucky, then add what they want to flavor it and call it whatever...

Jack doesn't do it this way, they add flavoring at there site....

Whiskey, no matter how stable the conditions are, will produce different flavors every batch...
