I LOVE Jameson. It's my favorite whiskey by far. As far as American Bourbons go, I prefer Maker's Mark over Jim or Jack.
I had absinthe over in Sweden, tasty but illegal here in the states. I've seen websites where you can order it, but I hear it's not the real deal.
I'd like my little set-up to be first class. Thus, I'm trying to avoid anything by Hiram Walker or DeKuyper (is that the right name? The
people who bring us Razzmatazz and Pucker). I'd rather shell out the
extra ten bucks for Chambourd or Midori. I mean if my guests or I
are going to consuming empty calories and/or becoming alcoholics, I'd rather it be a first class ride into oblivion.
Where's a good store to pick up some glassware by the by? Martini glasses, etc...
