So now I'm in Williamsport. Just sat down a great looking pub in downtown and ordered a Jack on the rocks. This is the first pub I've been to anywhere on the planet that does not serve Jack Daniel's.

WTF? I almost ordered a beer to protest.

Maker's it is but we can scratch this disgrace off the list of bars to frequent.

So you were forced to drink Maker's Mark instead of Jack? Sounds like you're complaining about getting bumped to business class from coach. Let me know if you find a bar that only serves Blanton's.

I'm not a whiskey connoisseur. Is that the good stuff? I'll stick w the nektar of the gods (or maybe Jack is of the devil, according to experience) regardless.

Blanton's is excellent, though harder to find at a bar. Woodford Reserve is another great one. I honestly recommend checking out a few pages of the Bourbon thread in the Food forum. Those guys have really opened my palate up to some great drinks.

And blantons has a cool bottle .

I looked them up and - didn't realize they were the same distillery that did buffalo trace.

You're at the wrong bar if Jack isn't merely the wells whiskey.

Every time I try a whiskey snob recommendation, I stop after one and go back to drinking Jack.

I feel the same way about some, but I really do like Blanton's. It's worth trying.

Looked like a couple of your standard European labels, the usual American bottled fat water, and some micro brewery stuff. Couple of locals ordered one called Civil War.

I'm thinking a woman owns the bar

Jack is a call at like 80% of bars.
I'm not saying I approve. That's just how it is.

And Sinatra was buried with a bottle of it. Enough said.

He liked drinking whiskey, not going to whiskey tastings where you talk about whiskey.

Excellent stuff! Have it in my cabinet right now along with its port cask finished brother the Quinta Ruban.

I still have the 50 mL bottle of Quinta Ruban. Both samples came in a gift box of their standard 10 year scotch. Yum.

Nector D'or is very good as well. Finished a bottle a few months ago and need another. Big fan of the label overall.

Agree. Jack is airplane food at best...
