Hey Kevin, good to hear/see you again 🙂 That don´t sound like it´s a good whiskey. I don´t like the smokey taste of Whiskey. Thanks for the review, my friend!
thats a good review ( honest ), I started a 1 L Jack Daniels (a month ago) and I was nicely surprised, I had a few bottles of jack before but this has aroma and taste ( caramel notes) and it doesnt mess with my stomach . I mainly drink german weiss beers, I have a beer blog and I have developed a taste for drinks. Cheers.
Socks and cigarette butts… You would think that bad liquor would just taste like kerosene, how could they fail so spectacularly, that it would have such an offensive profile?
The Glenlivet is a quality whisky, but J&B is fucking awful. As a general rule most single malt will be way nicer than most blends. If you mix plenty of ginger beer with the J&B it should go down more easily. … and whatever you do, don’t ever, EVER, buy a bottle of Whyte & Mackay’s.
Glenlivit is nice…I agree. Glenmorangie, Glenfiddich, are my other favorites. Nothing like a dirty sock. LOL.
May I suggest,,,for your single malt higher end scotch. Pick up a nosing glass. It will make the experience far more enjoyable. The ones I use are at this link. Just an example…they can be bought elsewhere. Nice review…and entertaining. :O)
Several years ago I bought a bottle of J&B. Until recently I thought that was what Scotch was supposed to taste like so I avoided it. But I just tried a bottle of Aberlour 12 year old, and now I’m in love with Scotch for the first time in my life.
Im wondering if what you mean by the ciggarettes is what meant to be the “Islay” style where it can be smokey, and peaty. You did mention you tried “Glenlivet” but that is more a “speyside” style of scotch.(Very little smoke and peat in speysides)
And yes, your drinking a blended whiskey, not the single malt versions.
I guess I want buy that.. Don’t like cigarette bud flavor lol..
I like makers mark and black label johnny walker. For cheaper bourbon I go with evan williams.

Good video! I’ll have to stay away from J B.
this is my number one fav brand, you need to give it a few drinks

Not a huge scotch fan to begin with so I’ll def skip this. 🙂
Don’t you hate it when people keep coming up behind you, (or dogs), trying to get in the camera shot.

I prefer Irish Whiskey; specifically Bushmills.
Happy birthday bro
