While JD is a sour mash (as is all American bourbon), it is classified as a Tennessee Whiskey. [/ QUOTE ] All bourbon is sour mash? Didn't know that. The label on my bottle say "Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey." I always thought the "Tennessee" part was just reflecting where it came from, and "sour mash" was its classification.

I've killed bottles of Fighting Cock with some friends before. I can't believe anyone else has ever heard of it. No, it wasn't a pleasant experience. [/ QUOTE ] first time I ever drank it was before a music festival. I drank a pint and sat outside in the blazing heat for the entire day. the following few days were the most miserable days of my life.

Re: I love whiskey thread
Does anyone actually like the taste of whisky or do you just like getting drunk as hell on it (which I can appreciate). Personally I think it tastes like paint thinner but I wish I liked it. Beer is the only alcohol I drink (unless drunk to the point I can't taste shots).

Re: I love whiskey thread
I'm not sure if people are unaware of it or maybe they don't like it, but Crown Royal is one of my favorite whiskeys.
