I always enjoyed Black a lot more than White, but it has been a while.<br /><br />I appreciate your visising whiskeys that don't get a lot of review attention in the blogs.

Beam, Jack Daniel's, Glenfiddich and Glenlivet and some of the blends are things I only drink in those contexts and they can be great there. Context matters, which is why I do all my tastings from the same exact place. These bourbons aren't meant for academic study, they are meant to be enjoyed in exactly the way you describe.skuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00487419662314518931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082156144028140004.post-23993604379636636732012-07-30T10:40:19.170-07:002012-07-30T10:40:19.170-07:00Perhaps my palate is not as refined, or perhaps I&...Perhaps my palate is not as refined, or perhaps I'm just so glad to be left in peace for a few minutes to drink bourbon, but those times in airports and parties I end up drinking Beam white and black I've always been surprised at how enjoyable I find it. It's not epicurean. It does have that musty Beam flavor at the back end. But I find over and over that bottom shelf bourbon beats the pants off bottom shelf Scotch or Irish or Canadian - let alone other spirits such ad cheap tequila or rum.Josh Feldmanhttp://cooperedtot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082156144028140004.post-61114213182520339182012-07-30T10:14:38.964-07:002012-07-30T10:14:38.964-07:00SO how was the red stag, or do you drink stags wit...SO how was the red stag, or do you drink stags with two g's ?<br /><br />SteffenSteffenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09214829298998129214noreply@blogger.com
