    glen A buddy did a random blind taste test a few weeks ago and this was his ranking of what they tried.

    1. Rich & Rare
    2. Buffalo Trace
    3. Makers Mark
    4. Weller SR

    So weird things can happen.

    Just goes to show how tastes differ. Although good, R&R would not have made my list.

          zbigjeff & herbcoFood I agree totally, blind and going back in a week or so and repeat
          I did a blind test of 5 whiskeys a few years ago. first round chilled neat, second round with a tsp. of coke per 1.5oz shot.
          My order of preference first to last was exactly reversed

                  PapaSop Yeah Papa, R&R never popped up on my radar until my wife bought it for the bottle to decorate our faux patio bar.
                  I couldn’t bear the thought of that poor whiskey feeling abandoned and lonely so I gave it a good “home” and refilled with tea
                  I think it is pretty good for the price point

                    HerbcoFood .Just now realized. R&R is a Canadian Whisky. The rest are all bourbon’s. Huge difference.

                            HerbcoFood Never had the Early Times. But, have had the others. So, since I like both the RB and 1792, will have to try the Early Times on my next visit. Thanks for the review.

                                HerbcoFood that Early Times was pretty good stuff, especially at the price. Heck, all of those are good picks.

                                  One of my favorite fall drinks. I heat some fresh apple cider and mull with some spices (ussually allspice, nutmeg, clove, and cinnamon). Mix about 2 parts cider with 1 part Jack Daniels Tennessee Fire cinnamon whiskey. I mixed a few of these camping with just the cider, whiskey and a cinnamon stick and it was great. I’ve done them as a cold drink also. I do not use or drink Fireball since it is way to sweet for my taste.

                                  Will have to try it with the Jack Fire cinnamon when I can get my hands on some. Went with the rebel 100 for tonight.

                                        Went the Apple cider hot toddy route tonight.
                                        Will have to try it with the Jack Fire cinnamon when I can get my hands on some. Went with the rebel 100 for tonight.

                                          GWG8541 Finally cooling down a little tiny bit & will be in the late 40’s tonight. Perfect, No Air, No heat, Money savings, Wonderful temperatures. I even mentioned breaking out the ol chimenea. Margaret says we need to check the heat & make sure it is working, especially her little space heater…
