Dale Clifford offered a gentleman as mint Tasco and a bottle of scotch for his Leupold...this made me wonder what people here prefer for their adult beverage of choice....my favorite single malt is Langavulin, but domestically my vote goes to Jim Beam Black

 

Inputs?

As far as whiskey is concerned I mostly go for single malts.

 

Favourite is Talisker.

I also enjoy Laphroig and occasionally Dalwhinnie.

 

However, if anyone wants to send me a bottle of scotch, I am not all that picky

P.S. To respond to an inevitable Russian joke, despite growing up in Russia I do not drink vodka.

Perhaps I read it in this forum, but it summed up my choice- "The only time I have said no to a drink was when I didn't understand the question".

I prefer the Canadian stuff, but I have stuck to beer for the most part for years.

O Ban

or Glennfiddich

 

Any 12+ year single malt scotch may do the trick.

Woodford Reserve when I can afford it, Makers Mark the rest of the time.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Makers Mark's very nice, never had Woodford.

I'm the same with Midleton when drinking a good whiskey... when I can afford it.
