run down to the "good" liquor store in your area (like BevMo or something like that) and pick up a 50ml shot bottle or Wild Turkey, ? Creek, Makers Mark, or Four Roses and try it out.
FYI - Bourbon is a type of whiskey. Tennessee, Kentucky (Bourbon), Scotch, Irish, and Canadian whiskey's all have differences to them. -
@konceptjones the aging process makes them different

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer

oh no ? huh....cuz i like both Crown and Jack but there's an obvious difference....
i've had maker's mark tho....it was cool but nothing made me want to stay with it -
@konceptjones the aging process makes them different
The ingredients and distillation process as well. They're not all made from the same grains.
Scotch is typically maletd barley and is almost always made with a single type of grain
Irish usually uses unmalted grains and is also single grain
Kentucky (bourbon) has a minimum of 51% corn as it's grain with most at about 70% with the remaining as wheat or rye.
Tennessee is similar to bourbon, but adds a filtering process where the alcohol is run through maple charcoal before barreling.
Canadian is a multi-grain whiskey, but tends to have more rye. -
Cider, jaeger bombs and sambuca. Used to be vodka but I black out on that ? and more often than not ending up in a holding cell, to old for that ? now lol

@konceptjones true. did you also know that if you call a Bourbon a Scotch around the worng people you could get cussed out?..lol...it's just that serious.
-
Crown and Patron
-
Vodka/Cranberry with a shot of Tequila

I'm one of those people who would cuss you out. NEVER disrespect Bourbon like that. I'll let it slide if you called Jack or Dickel Bourbon 'cause I can see someone making that mistake, but never EVER call scotch, irish, or especially canadian ? Bourbon or vice versa. -

Damn man you should become a Turtle lol.. Personally it depends on my mood.. When I've had a long day at the office and I know I'm going straight home I'll pick up a bottle of Maker's Mark 46.. Have that with a few cubes of ice and zone the ? out.. When I'm going out to hang I usually only ? with Rum (Appleton Estate or the good ole Captain)

Whiskey(Maker's Mark) or ? vodka(Three Olives) martinis when I'm in a business setting, tequila(Cazadores) when I'm trying to party and turn up, beer(Blue Moon or Bud Light) for sporting events and parties. *Side note: I heard that you can buy off brand vodka, a Brita filtration pitcher, and run it through 10 to fifteen times and you cant tell the difference between the off brand and Ciroc/Sky/Belvedere. Haven't tried it but I might do it this weekend to see if there's any truth to it

Beer.
None of that ? Bud, coors, Miller ? either.
If i drink hard alcohol its normally whiskey or rum, dont have a favorite. -

I've had friends that have done it with swill vodka like Popov or Mohawk and it turns out pretty damned smooth.
