Balvenie is one of my favorites. You really should try the 17yr old "Rum Cask" one. It is about 130 a bottle but worth every penny imo.
I am thinking the Pakistani fella at my local liquor store doesn't stock that, I went into a nice place that had some high end padlocked stuff in a glass case the other day, I will check there.
- As soon as I think up a good sig it's going here.
I am drinking a 15 yr old Balvenie right now and I think it is just about perfect.
If there is anything better I need to know about it.
As an every day drinker I reach for Michter's bourbon, FUCK YEAH AMERICA!!! or, if I'm going across the pond the Bruichladdich 16's are very complex and nicely concentrated for the price.
It's not Balvenie, it's "THE BALVENIE." My favorite. Huge super liquor store here occasionally has 3-packs of airplane bottles of various Scotches. You get to try 3 different years of Scotch for the same brand. 15 year is probably best bang for the buck, but 21 is damn great. Just not worth the extra cash. One of my favorite bars undercharges for The Balvenie. $4.50, a shot most places that's a $12.00 drink.
If you ever get near Jack Daniels, write them in advance. On our honeymoon, we were so poor that's where we went. They fix a lunch for about 50 lucky people in the basement of Miss's BoBo's boarding house. Don't know if they still do (was 40 years ago). No rooms at Miss's BoBo's boarding house, but we felt it was a great honor/treat just to be invited to lunch. Been a favorite since I was 17.
Have not drank in almost 16 years, but I used to really like Gentleman Jack
I always laugh at the people that quit drinking. You're either retarded unhealthy, a raging alcoholic that couldn't control himself on booze, or a stupid fucking idiot. What one is it?

yep. a persons life became unmanageable abusing the booze, so they stopped drinking to restore sanity to their life. ha ha ha.
I'm just a simple Jack Daniels kinda guy. Did you guys know he died from an infection in his big toe? He kicked his safe when he forgot the combination and broke it and died. You too can hear the story when you take the tour in Lynchburg Tennessee.
Balvenie is a nice scotch. If you like something smokey, try an islay. Bowmore I like. Their darkest blend has a lot of sherry notes. Personal favorite is Lagavulin. Its got a ton of smoke to it. Also had a vintage Caol Isla at a pub, but I've never been able to find it again
