What's your go-to bottom shelf whisky?

[Whisky&Steak]

Just like the title, what is your go to bottom shelf whisky? The bottle you can get throughout the year and use it for anything, neat, on the rocks, in a cocktail, etc.

I've got a couple, but I think Canadian Club Classic 12 Year is mine. What's yours?

 

[Possum092]

Old Granddad and Old Crow.

 

[sternej]

Seagram's 7

 

[Whiterook]

Wild Turkey 101.

 

[Four for Luck]

Grant’s Scotch.

 

[Lightcs1776]

Evan Williams. I don't find anything better until I get to the $40 and up price point.

 

[malocchio]

Any of the FOUR ROSES ...

 

[GreggJ]

Old Grand Dad 114 or Wild Turkey 101. Four Roses also a good call.

 

[Quaznoid]

Evan Williams, but I don’t consider it bottom shelf. I also love Early Times

Are we talking whisky/whiskey, or just whisky?

Are we talking whisky/whiskey, or just whisky?

Yes. Any, all....

I'd say anything BiB. JTS Brown, Evan Williams, etc. EW 1783 is also pretty good. I can enjoy any of those neat without worrying about mixing it in coke either.

Buffalo Trace is my bourbon of choice but in a pinch Ten High.

Evan Williams Single Barrel is quite nice actually. I often have a bottle of George Dickel Rye around the house, Old Overholt is another good choice. Ancient Age isn't too bad, but I'd prefer the blended 4 Roses... Old Crow is awful but I'll still drink it... Cabin Still, and all Canadian whiskies are foul.

Buffalo Trace is my bourbon of choice but in a pinch Ten High.

Ten High?

 

[SharpieB]

Buffalo Trace. About the same price in Canada as Jack Daniels, so it is my go to for bourbon & Coke, Old Fashioneds, straight, etc.

 

[Deano]

Ten High?

Its a bar whiskey. Might be a step below bottom shelf.

 

[Deano]

Buffalo Trace. About the same price in Canada as Jack Daniels, so it is my go to for bourbon & Coke, Old Fashioneds, straight, etc.

And better than Jack IMO

 

[SammieM]

Powers..

 

[Whisky]

Heaven Hill White Label (especially the old 6yr BiB) , JTS Brown, or Old Overholt. Old Grandad 114 is good too, but I haven’t seen it on shelves around here for years, The Old Grandad BiB isn’t bad and much easier to find.

 

[Four for Luck]

These are bottom shelf? Interesting.
