I'm not sure if I've posted this question or not, but if you needed to recommend a single malt for a first time whiskey drinker, what would it be?

For me, it has many of the characteristics of the different regions while none overpowering the others.

My goodness .. Jim beam rye It was my only rye forever . Only in the last few years have I tried a few others . They changed the label on it to a green color .. it looks better than the yellow . Brings back many a memory of Manhattans and sours .. enjoy

I hear that the yellow label was better than the newer green. This one is the pre-prohibition version at 90 proof. I'll give it a try tomorrow evening. Alabama liquor stores don't ever have what I originally go in looking for so I usually end up with my 2nd or 3rd choice.Ruffinogold wrote: ↑Tue Jan 28, 2020 9:51 pmMy goodness ..
