I’m drinking it neat. And I don’t know the difference between all the types. I have a bottle of Cedar Ridge now and am enjoying it.Also - you'll need to get more specific with your question and after this I'll bow out since I no longer drink and never drank the good stuff anyway (I was always fine with Beam, Jack, BV, Evan Williams, and no stranger to well whiskey). But do you like bourbon, rye, scotch? You mixing cocktails or sipping on liquor (or drinking mouthwash at work, I won't judge)?
Coolest party craft I think I saw in college that was technically legal was a Goldschlagger bottle converted into a... water pipe for tobacco.Black Velvet is the Busch Light of Iowa drinking.
Crown Royal comes in the velvet bags that a creative guy like you could turn into some kind of sex toy...
Good call on Crown Royal bags. I once found one of my mom’s sex toys inside a crown royal bag. They are good for that. Pretty sure I should have gone to therapy after that. I also find Crown Royal to be especially pleasing.Black Velvet is the Busch Light of Iowa drinking.

I have had two one night slips since quitting June 2019. On both occasions my second purchase of the evening was Black Velvet because I am who I am.My inner Iowan wants to say BV. If you drink enough you will get constant reminders of the taste the next day.

Under $30.
Finding Buffalo Trace anymore is like finding the holy grail. Used to be on every shelf a few yrs ago.Woodford Reserve or Buffalo Trace are my regulars in that range.
There is a Macallan knockoff called McClelland that is actually quite good. Around $25 a bottle. I am partial to this one:Under $30.

It pairs well with passing out while smoking a cigarette indoors, getting an OWI in someone else's RV, and calling multiple Uber drivers to find your wallet.I would be lying if I said it wasnt my go to whiskey. After that my list looks like yours. Evan Williams, Jack, Beam, Windsor, Jameson, and Crown when on sale.

My regular go-to is Beam. I like it on rocks or with a mixer. I would argue it is the best bourbon for its price out there. I’ll drink Evan Williams, but mostly with a mixer. Crown is a little too sweet for me. And I loathe Jack Daniels. I would turn down a free one.
Maybe a case would make for a good Christmas gift?Really? A Florida thing? Here in Colorado, it’s everywhere. I would be really bummed if buffalo trace wasn’t readily available.
Ditto. I did double-digit shots of Jack over about an hour or two during a fraternity hazing event my freshman year. That, um, did not turn out well. The mere smell of Jack turns my stomach to this day.And I loathe Jack Daniels. I would turn down a free one.
I had a cheap fraternity.Ditto. I did double-digit shots of Jack over about an hour or two during a fraternity hazing event my freshman year. That, um, did not turn out well. The mere smell of Jack turns my stomach to this day.
Was this at Iowa or NU? I was a GDI at Iowa and rather than "hazing" that was how you got 21 y.o.'s to buy you booze (prove you were cool). Not really but kind of.Ditto.

In college I was really into Jack and coke. But then whiskey started giving me bad hangovers. And then my coke dealer got busted.Don't do it. Whiskey is dirty compared to Vodka. If your going to Jim Beam with Coke mix well.
