For store bought goods Ezra Brooks is hard to beat. Got a nice Sour Mash twang. Tastes like Jack Daniels should..but dont. About 3/4 the price and 90 proof for Character. That is what Bocephus wrote his song over. If you want to chill mix it with crick water and get ready for some good sleep. If you mix it with Coca Cola..coffee or Red Bull it will make a person get crazy and go to Dallas and write hot checks in the wee hours of the morn. Now for boys afternoon out with the guys..it tastes very good as a shooter to get the funky old cheap draw beer taste out of the mouth parts. Makes beer drinkers slightly more intelligent for a while. Also handsome and tough. lol.

I do not like most cocktails because they are usually very
strong, but with the alcohol masked by strongly flavored ingredients.

Tuxedo martini

1 oz dry gin
1/2 oz dry vermouth
dash anisette
dash maraschino liquor (Luxardo "il maraschino originale")

Shake over ice, strain into a chilled cocktail glass.

Negroni

3 parts each sweet vermouth, Campari and gin. Stir, serve over ice with a
twist of orange.

Single malt/ice cubes ??????? Such sacrilege !

When my parents lived in Japan, it was very expensive to come by. So
the servants had orders, depending what the person ordered with it, so
they received. Single malt for those who just wanted the malt, soda
next rung down, one more down cubes and only Japanese whiskey for
those who asked for whiskey ginger.

Nobody seemed to notice or become discombobulated

lol sounds fair enough to me) I am no whisky drinker so the rare time I
have one, I have no interest in his good malts

I remember Benny Hill saying that a barman had asked him if he liked
cocktails. Benny said yes - so he told him a few!

It's nice. I use 2 oz of gin and EITHER the anisette or the maraschino.
Also for vermouth, for God's sake don't use Martini & Rossi's "Extra
Dry ****" or anybody else's for that matter. Noilly Pratt, Dolin or
Lillet Blanc.

Just had my first one a few months ago.

If you use Bourbon instead of gin, you get a Boulevardier.

I've not heard of that, but it's worth pursuit.
