View Full Version : When you drink liquor straight, what do you prefer?
Taichi

no mixing, right out of the bottle.
For me it's Captain Morgan and Jack Daniels.
I will drink other rums (Bacardi, Cruzan), but Captain is my favorite.

Any tequila particularly 1800 silver... goes down like water. Well actually I don't like Patron at all but that's what all the black people offer me.
Jack Daniels: The first time I ever got drunk in high school was off this. Sentimental reasons.
Grey Goose or flavored Absolut (I prefer Citron) I can also sip.
Edit: I tried Jaeger for the first time the other day... absolutely disgusting.

Gin isn't that bad, especially considering the fact that it's usually 100 proof. Gin + Gatorade is surprisingly good.

You'd think so, but that's actually not the case. I hate black licorice, but I <3 Jager.
Out of the major types of alcohol, rum is probably the only one I don't mind drinking straight up.

anyway, in general, pay more for your booze, and not only will it go down smoother, you wont get as sick the next day.

Straight = hard liquor right out of the bottle, can be shots, can be on the rocks, but can't be mixed with ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE.
you drink it how it comes.
Bailey's, Jager, and other Liquers count as well, I suppose, since they're still 'hard' enough.
and yes, I do drink for the fucking taste, Rum is sweet, because its made from Molasses, once you get a taste for it, you CAN tell the difference (okay, 151 tastes like alcohol, and nothing but).
same with Vodkas, once you get used to drinking it, you KNOW the taste, and know its different.

seriously, more money = better booze. simple. HOWEVER - if you like grey goose, the kirkland vodka at costco is grey goose without the label and 20 bucks cheaper for the big bottle.
tequila has gotten me in the most trouble, but tequila has also gotten me more tail than any other booze. tequila makes me a pimp apparently, cuz the highest quality ass i've gotten has been when i'm fucked up on tequila...

Scotch Whiskey, I usually drink Glenfiddich 12 yr old. If the weather is hot, I chill it for a bit, otherwise, I drink it straight at room temperature. Of course, the longer the whiskey is aged, the smoother and aromatic the whiskey is. Crappy whiskey like Johnny walker red label or most North American whiskey= no thanks.
The best whiskey I ever had was a 40 yr old whiskey called Port Ellen, the fuckin thing is $500 for 700ml, and it went down my throat like silk and the aroma stay in my mouth for 1hr plus.
Straight = hard liquor right out of the bottle, can be shots, can be on the rocks, but can't be mixed with ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE.

Some people's definition of straight is like what you say at the end, drink it as it is. So even changing the temperature isn't really drinking it straight. When I tell bartender what i want straight, they just pour it and give it to me. On the rock =/= straight, on the rock is on the rock. Melted water and significantly lower temperature alters the taste just like other liquor, maybe to a less degree but it still changes the flavor.

for the vodka lovers, you should check out Reyka (it's an icelandic vodka)
Make sure you drink it on the rocks with really cold ice (that doesn't make sense....but trust me, it needs to be super chilled)
it tastes SO unbelievably pure once it hits your tongue it's amazing...under no circumstances should you drink this mixed with anything.

Scotch or whiskey. Cheap whiskey is usually 10 yr old charter. Best taste at that price point.
Actually the best vodka I've ever had for under $30 a bottle has to be van ho. Blows grey goose, ciroc, and belvedere away.

Generally I like to mix my alcohol Vodka Cranberry, Screwdrivers, Rum(either normal or Captain) & Coke, but when doing shots it's normally Vodka and recently I've tried Patron and that wasn't that bad. I've had Cognac with my dad and that was pretty smooth, I've also had Captain which isn't that bad.
Scotch with an ice ball instead of cube ice. :tup:
Same with vodka, but I only drink potato mash vodka.

I used to literally drink out a chilled bottle of Bacardi Limon, from full to empty, without throwing up or acting too stupid. Not on a dare or to make a statement, just to set my party evening off the right way. Fuck those were the good ole days.
Taichi is right though, liquors have a taste once you grow up out of that kiddy 'it all tastes like cologne' shit. Rum goes down pretty smooth and mixes well with other beverages.
Triple shots of Monarch vodka, all three in a row, but only if hella people are around. Not necessarily watching but just around so they might see what the fuck Im about to do and then revel in it. All it took was doing that shit and everyone at that particular party just kept callin me "the man."

I'm more of a beer guy these days, and I fancy myself a bit of a bartender so I like mixing...
BUT, if I want to get wasted I prefer drinking something like Aftershock/Cinnamon schnapps straight. Either that or Stoli. Cheap vodka goes down easy as well, at least for me. I'd drink vodka with breakfast if I wouldn't catch heat for it... sometimes I do have an early morning wakeup screwdriver regardless. ;p
Runner up: Peppermint Schnapps.

on topicccc-- anybody recommend a decent scotch? i am very interested in the stuff but it's super expensive so i can't just go about sampling it =\
Scotch is usually an older person's drink. But if you wanna taste good scotch don't even bother with anything cheap. It's not something you wanna skimp on. I think someone already mentioned Johnny Walker Red Label, which isn't too hard on the wallet and it's okay. I know Chivas is more expensive, but it really is worth it. Glenlevit is also nice, but not as easy on the wallet either. Enjoy.

Aftershock... Any other kind of spirit is usually too harsh or foul to drink a lot of... I will however drink tequila slammers, which are awesome, but anything else straight is just gut rot waiting to happen.

For vodka, I dont go lower than GreyGoose.
For Scotch, Glenfiddich 12 or macallan12, used to be Chivas but not any more.
But the best liquor to me is Bacardi RESERVE. Very nice.

Haha, So I keep seeing Grey Goose, Chopin, Belvedere. You want really good vodka, the answer is Turi. That shit is like water. Literally. Next one for everyone to try, Ciroc. It's a clean french vodka from frosted grapes, that right there is happiness.
As for scotch, I stick with single malts except for Chivas and Blue Label. But seriously, who the fuck purchases Blue Label. It's so expensive. I prefer things by region, so I stick with Highland/Speyside single malts. If you like yours a little saltier, look for Islay region.
And as for the whole allergic to alcohol, I know someone here in vegas who is allergic, and he doesn't mind. I'm allergic to marijuana, and I don't give a fuck, don't use, don't need it.

Hate to be the one to bring a thread back to life, but what the hell:
I personally like to mix and match things for shots. What I usually drink is either a straight shot of Grand Marnier, or 50/50 Grand Marnier and Hennessy. When I'm not drinking that, I'll probably be looking for a Scotch. When I do that, I usually try to drink either Chivas or a Macallan 15 (I'll usually look for an 18 bottle).
I'm not a rum person, but the local moonshine over here called "pitorro" or "cañita" is some pretty explosive stuff, especially if they cure it right. When I don't drink that, I'll go for the Bacardi special reserve which they only sell in the factory over here.
Vodka? I'm not a big fan of straight-shot vodka. I'll usually mix with juice or something. Smirnoff vodka makes for the best madras, vodka-cranberries and screwdrivers, while Grey Goose seems to be more fitting for vodka-tonic and vodka-Red Bull type stuff. I tried a New Zealand vodka called 42 Below and it's pretty damn good. Possibly the only vodka I can drink straight shot without feeling like shit.
When I used to drink tequila I would just grab any Cuervo Oro Añejado and just gulp it, but after a while I got used to Patrón. Then after getting intoxicated in a club off it, I quit drinking tequila completely.
Straight? Gimme something to nurse over ice. Jameson. A nice single malt scotch (cheap scotch is depressing). I'm fine with rum as long as it isn't spiced.
I drink mostly old man drinks, though. Tom Collins is a favorite, with either gin or vodka (though I prefer the gin, if given the choice). Whiskey Sour. A well-made Rob Roy ("well-made" being the key words). The occasional White Russian. And I really like a Vodka Cranberry, but don't tell anyone.

Tequila - Jose Cuervo Gold
The only hard liquor I can drink with no mixing, chasers, etc. I've yet to get a serious hangover from it either.

Soju is yummy. Too bad that shiet creeps up on you. Not too good if you're a girl.
I prefer Chilled Goose or Cordon Bleu.

The most overrated over-priced whiskey. Try Glenmorangie 18 yr old. Cheaper and Better.
