The best whiskey in the world is...Japanese???

Jefferson Oceans. Best bourbon ever. Extremely rare but only $65/bottle if you can find it.

If you like the blue and the gold though, Lagavulin is 50 times more peat and smoke than the other two. It's more peat than 95% of all Scotches most likely. I like them all 3 but totally different tastes......Lagavulin is smoke in a bottle. Drink it neat in a snifter.

YES, Lagavulin is a superb single malt Scotch. Sipped neat from a snifter with a good cigar is paradise.

Yazakami make some great whiskey. Its not my favorite though and don't forget that award is only one mans opinion....

Lagavulin is very balanced with heather and honey to equalize the peat smoke. If you're truly after lots of peat, save yourself $50 a bottle and get a bottle of Laphroaig 10. Twice the smoke as Lagavulin, but without the wonderful balance.

Unless they are the new makers of
Crown then you are mistaken.

I am not even sure if Crown can be considered whiskey. And it damn sure isn't whisky.

Truth. People who call it whiskey think the same about Southern Comfort. SMH

Used to be you went into Okinawan clubs they all drank JW Red mixed with water.
Only the rich guys had the Black.
IIRC: They all had to buy their own bottle, and pay for the service.
I saw a bottle of wine in a shop in Naha, Okinawa one time with a big IMPORTED sign under it. It was Boone's Farm.
They only seemed to drink sake on special occasions.

Guys save some money and treat yourself to Larceny wiskey. Great neat or over ice. Reminds me of MM before the change.
