I love whiskey thread

[Buckmulligan]

I've recently acquired a taste for Jack Daniels and would like to explore elsewhere. I prefer whiskey on the rocks and know very little about other types. Any guidance or opinions on whiskey?

check out Maker's Mark, pretty much standard advice on this topic

Another easy-to-find, fairly inexpensive, good value to try would be one of the common "Glen" scotches - Glenfiddich, Glenlivet. I'm quite partial to Glenlivet, myself.

scotch is a totally different animal from jack (or, for that matter irish whiskey and bourbon). if you dig scotch, you'd do well to try as many of these as possible:

He just said "whiskey," right? Though he's starting with bourbon, of course. Yeah, get yourself some Maker's Mark or Knob Creek, if you want to stick with bourbon.

Any scotch will do, as long as it's not a blend, of course.

If you were unaware, Blue Label is a blend.
