If you like that one, be sure to try the Balvenie 15-year Sherry Cask...
For the Whiskey/Bourbon Drinkers. What's your "go to"?

My "routine whiskey " is Canadian Club, pretty pedestrian. I like a single malt scotch. As far as blends go, partial to Pinch. Not much of a bourbon drinker but like a Makers Mark at the hunting camp while watching the sun go down over the pines after having been made a fool of by a wise old gobbler.
Anything with Glen or Van in the name is pretty good, Anyone try Aberlour 16 before? A friend gave me a bottle to try, haven’t opened it yet, waiting for a good weekend.
BTW, nothing wrong with makers mark, if we are serving cocktails, usually makers mark is the choice.

I heard someone today talking about Uncle Nearest. Apparently this is the guy that taught Jack Daniels to make whiskey. They guaranteed you will finish the bottle in 24-48 hours. This sounds like something I need to try.
Literally zero chance of that - what do I win when I don't?
I'm not sure I've finished a bottle of bourbon in under 3 months, and I drink Old Fashioned's semi regularly.
I got a free bottle (never opened) of this from my wife's cousin. He didn't realize it was rye when he bought it and said he'll never drink it. I've never had it before, plan on drinking some this weekend. Any opinions on it? I can tell you right now, it won't taste bad because it was FREE! LOL!
Never drank rye. I am very curious though. Please let us know.
Free is always the best! I do like Rye occasionally and this is a good one, along with Angel's Envy.
I started thinking about it, so I looked it up. 2oz in an Old Fashioned, just over 26oz in a 750ml bottle of bourbon, so that's 13 Old Fashioneds over the course of roughly 13 weeks.
So we've mathematically established that 'semi regularly' cane be translated to 'once per week'
Before Doctors decided I had Celiac Disease... I drank Bourbon and Vodka and Beers. (60s till mid 90s) Then they decided my digestive system should avoid Wheat, Rye, and Barley.
(It's the Gluten that gave me the storm in my intestines.)
I was left with foul tasting Gluten Free Beers or Rum and Tequila.
4 years ago I gave up Alcohol. Then gave up Tea.
Now about all that's left is Water, Coffee, and Sprite.
These days he strongest thing I drink is burnt Coffee,
and I don't drink it by choice.
These days there is a dizzying number of good drinks available.
Drink up Gents.

My new stuff arrived today. 
The 2 small bottles are my free gift. Never had peanut butter whiskey before. It sounds like something that could be really good or really bad.

I can attest that the High West Whiskey Double Rye is very good. I haven't had the other two so I can't say.

The peanut butter whiskey is ok. It is pretty sweet so it is decent as an after dinner sipper, but I can't have much of it. I did try the Uncle Nearest last weekend based on your recommendation above and enjoyed it.
