that's cute

Middleton, followed by Connemara. If I had to pick a Jameson to drink for the rest of my days, I'd go Gold Reserve

Oh, I love Powers also. Not easy to find at a bar, but great Irish whiskey.

Jesus told me to drink Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey. Thy will be done.

TJD USED to be my favorite whiskey . . . until I decided to drink whiskey un-mixed. TJD is great when mixed with beverages, but JD neat isn't really my thing. I started to drink whiskey in a glass neat (only about a few months ago) because my sister kept calling me a wuss. :P

Trying to find the best whiskey for drinking alone, I found Jameson and fell head over heels. Jameson (green bottle) is the best whiskey hands down. It's smooth and heck, it's even great over ice.

And just so I get this off my chest. . . I LOVE whiskey on crushed ice.

*phew* Now, I feel better. LOL

"A double Jameson on the rocks," I say.
After that one is served and drank: "Barkeep," I say, "another lap. And keep out the water."

Damn...I haven't been in that place in @30yrs. With what I've heard in the last few years about bars closing/changing in SF, I'm glad to know the Buena Vista is still going on.

BTW Peetie, Paddy one of my favorites as well, just hard to find round these parts, that's why I stick with Jameson. We did have it at my bar for a week and I had many free samples.

Hell yeah, it's completely packed every morning. They put a few huge round tables up that everyone shares for breakfast and it's a good way to meet people. They also found a loophole in the law that allows them to sell Irish Coffees to-go in paper cups. Tullamore Dew now makes a custom bottle for them too.

can i hijack this thread to ask one of your lovelies if you know where i can happen upon a plain, green jameson coffee mug? i am super klutz and broke mine, and you can't buy one from their web site. it was my very favorite item of drinking swag, and everyday i go without it is worse than the last.
