If you love, simply can't have enough of the smoked barrel taste, 7 Brothers Hickory Smoked whisky is a nice, cheap bottle of good whisky.

Never heard of it, I'll have to search it out, thank you. I always love trying a new whiskey.

Surprisingly good. Has a real deep and complex roasted peanutty flavor.
Currently drinking. Extremely good rye whiskey. It's got a little bit too much bite to have straight but it mixes really well.

Those are better than they have any right to be.

I drink it straight and I don't like anything too bitter, but I'll give it a shot.

How the fuck have I not found this thread already?
Peanutty whiskey? I'm not sure how I feel about that.

A lot of bourbons have a peanutty note if you look at it sideways, though the peanut whiskey isn’t what I’d have in mind.

"Imported - John Lee Straight Bourbon Whiskey - Personal Reserve" is the worst one. It is 100% certified garbage made on the cheap for yuros.
I've also seen that Heaven Hill is making whiskey again.

Genuinely the worst whiskey I've ever had. Possibly tied with a godawful Nikka I can't remember the name of.

Sounds ghastly. My worst (as in give it to a bum bad) is Ten High, at least its current incarnation. It can't even call itself straight bourbon because it is almost half shitty neutral grain spirits. One of the few bottles of liquor so vile I couldn't even finish it.

Peanut butter flavoured whiskey I could go for. Might be nice.
Crab flavoured whiskey - do not want!

That was John Lee for me, I even tried mixing it but it was still overpoweringly foul. Urgh. Four Roses is a notch above it in price and much, much, much more drinkable. It's been years since I drank bourbon but on the cheap price/taste spectrum I think I prefer Four Roses over Jim Beam, it goes toe to toe with the more expensive Jim Beam Black. It's a great budget choice for youth at music festivals listening to rock.

I've been off dealing with family the last few weeks specifically, moving the grandparents into an assisted living community, and holy fuck has it been depressing. Going through 70+ years of their lives has been amazing and sad, but yesterday was a lot of fun.
Grandad and I spent the afternoon going through the old liquor cabinets in the kitchen, and the basement. We found a full six pack of Falstaff beer from the early 60's, tons of old random bottles of stuff he bought when he was in the Air Force and brought home, but the collection of whiskey and other spirits is like a time capsule. Some of it, like the Jack's Market brand "Kentucky's Smoothest" Bourbon is pure fucking rot gut, but there's also stuff like an unopened bottle of Amoretto with a 1959 tax stamp on it. We didn't get through all it, but as we go through it, I'll snap some pictures and post them here. You guys will probably get a kick out of what we find. Some of the highlights so far;
The unopened 1959 stamped Amoretto.
An unopened Chivas Regal from 1964.
An open bottle of White Horse purchased in Hong Kong in 1961 (mostly full).
A red label Johnny Walker with a 1960 tax stamp.
A bottle of Remy Martin from their wedding in 1952. They forgot they even had it, and now they're arguing about if they should crack it open for their 70th anniversary in October, or wait for 75.

What the FUCK has happened to Jim Beam? I am trying to drink this shit and it tastes like fucking plastic. There is a terrible chemical/artificial aftertaste that I don't ever remember tasting before. It's truly awful. Did they change something or did I get a bad batch?

Probably both. I haven't had regular JB in the last couple years but there are signs of crapification like their Black Label losing its age statement and getting worse as well.
