Favorite hard liquor/least favorite hard liquor
« on: August 25, 2010, 11:14:22 PM »
Bourbon (a good one, like Buffalo Trace)/Vodka (GAH!..tastes like...like...like vodka...and 2 lousy shots and it's a guaranteed hangover, too, for me, whereas I can drink a fair bit more bourbon or other whiskey; bit of the opposite, I'm told, of other people, for vodka)


I don't drink much hard stuff these days; more beer. But if I do, a good bourbon has always been my favorite. Least favorite, as said, vodka, although tequilla comes in near last also. Don't even like top-shelf tequillas.

All Smirnoff Vodka's.  It's my favorite!

Least favorite?  Jack Daniel's.  It tastes like crap.

Gin is my least favorite.
The rest of them are a toss up.  Although I'm really a w(h)ine kinda girl.

I'm a very picky drinker. :-)

Favorite....Grey Goose - required for martinis, Skyy or Stoli Vodka - if mixing.

A well done margarita....on the rocks...not top shelf.

Summertime .....Cruzan Black Cherry Rum and Lemonade

Winter.....warmed up B&B, with a lovely bit of chocolate. 



Scotch will kill me, bourbon or whiskey are not options, ever.   :puke:
Only time I will drink red wine, is on Sunday's from the Communion Chalice. White wine? very very rarely. Never beer.

I do like an occasional Smirnoff Black Ice. (my son calls them "P" drinks  :whatever:)

Holy cow.  I am just a beer-kinda old gal - but my gal pals like the hard stuff.  They take me out and it's a wild time! Drinking and dancing and karoke. 

They get a bit wild - and I laugh my butt off!

Beer is #1.  Liquor?  It's a tie between Bombay Sapphire Gin, and Monopolowa Vodka.


Least Favorite?

Tequila.   Let's just say we agree to disagree.

Looks like Tequila doesn't agree with a lot of people here. :evillaugh:

Me either.

I stick with vodka or bourbon when I'm not drinking beer.

Oh, Thundley's just kidding.

I mainly drink beer, but my favorite hard stuff is Seagram's 7 with Diet Sprite.  Crown Royal straight up in little sips is lovely, too, especially in winter.

Least fav:  Scotch, even if it's very good.  It tends to give me heartburn.  No like that.

Dang, almost ditto for me except gotta go with 7-up with Seagram's 7.   And Crown is da bomb anytime.

Any kind of Cognac I can't dig; don't like any syrupy liquor.

Any decent Bourbon is my fav.

I like tequila, but it makes me meaner than a rattlesnake, so I stay away from it.

I don't care for cordials or any of that fu-fu crap (or as Deb's some would say, "P drinks")

Beer and wine are not qualifiers since we were supposed to be discussing hard liquor.

Monopolowa Vodka.

And unfortunately I've never found it in the states, but Kurland vodka is really smooth.

It's been many years since I've imbibed, but when I did, Stroh's rum from Austria was a fave. At the time I would sample this stuff, they offered two flavors - 120 proof and 160 proof. I stayed away from the 160 proof - that stuff was lethality in a bottle.

Wiki on Stroh

Jack Daniel's was okay, and I liked sipping on Crown Royal once in awhile.

Fav: Bourbon, have a half-drank bottle of Woodford Reserve on deck right now.

Least: Crown Royal, we have never got along due to the taste and smell. It just doesn't sit right with me.
