This thread fails since it doesn't scotch, bourbon, or whiskey.

Anyways, my favorites are usually porters (Meantime London Porter and Oscar Blues Ten-Fiddy being my favorites), stouts, Wild Turkey ( w/Dr. Pepper), Johnnie Walker Black when I want to be cheap, and McCallen 12 (well, I like 18 better but I can't really afford that often, anything in their Fine Oak series is great).


Here's a recipe for homemade scotch.

Take Whiskey(Makers Mark, mmmmmmmmmmmm)

Add finely ground chalk and whole ice cubes

Drink then say "not bad, really smooth, but why does it taste like chalk?"

Note:Can substitute whiskey and chalk with any scotch.

Make a shot of Hendricks Gin, drink and say "much better."


I'm guessing you've never actually tried a nice scotch?

Because there's a pretty wide variety and little things can affect the taste of scotch a lot.  Hell, a single drop of water can completely change the taste of a fine scotch (that's why people can be really particular about how much ice is in their scotch).

I'd suggest trying something aged in a different type of wood (for instance, I hate Sherry Oak but I love Fine Oak Macallen), different age, and a different brand.
