How do you drink it? I like sipping on it straight. Or with one ice cube if a shit blend. Single malts never need ice or water but those blends sometimes do.

I got some tullamore dew right now in my mouth. I drank half the bottle and passed out for a bit. Now I have another half and it is midnight. Perfect timing I suppose.

I feel like I should not drink it all tonight, but the will wants me too. Damn I probably should just drink to cleanse my sins.

It really depends on how I'm feeling... If I'm goin' all nostalgic it's gonna be straight Jack with a chaser of bud in a bottle. But usually it's jack and pepsi...
Lately I've been drinking this spodie me and my wife made though... Everclear, 151, watermellon vodka and orange shnapps with about 20 pounds of fruit and two gallons of fruit punch. Set that for two weeks and it's some killer shit!

My best run so far

Bourbon whiskey gets coke for me, but scotch is a different story:
at least 12 years old, single malt, 3 cubes of ice OR with a younger single malt or a blend I drink Rob Roys.

I don't understand why you think that's different. Whiskey makes many men angry when they drink it.
I'm a happy/loving drunk when drinking Jag, I don't think that's uncommon at all...

I've got a set actually. Can't bring 'em out with you though, and the right temperature for whiskey (like red wine) is slightly below room temperature, so the three cubes is the best way to get it there with minimal dilution.

Lord Calvert - $12/gallon 
Rum is my hard drink of choice. But if for some reason I feel I need whiskey I go with that cheap shit. Brings me back.

Jack is a pretty assy whiskey. But there's also something of a trick to drinking whiskey straight. I like to sip just barely enough to moisten your tongue. Otherwise the alcohol flavor overpowers the whiskey flavor.
As far as other whiskeys go I like bourbons. Jim Beam is usually my go to whiskey. Their small batch label Knob Creek is great and a bit higher proof if you feel like spending the money. Rye is good if bourbon isn't dry enough for you. For cheap whiskey I really don't mind Evan Williams. And most Canadian whiskey is really okay (and more on the mild side) it's mostly cheaper because they buy the used barrels that American bourbon makers are not legally allowed to re-use (if they intend to label their product 'straight bourbon') and re-use them for two or three batches. If I'm going to be making mixed drinks with whiskey I use the Evan since you're not really going to taste the character of the whiskey once you put it on ice and water it down and the slightly assier taste cuts through the mix to add that little whiskey bite better than Jim.

Fun fact - whiskey doesn't age in the bottle 
I had a really old bottle of Jim Beam I thought was gonna be awesome, but I looked it up and I guess it doesn't age in the bottle.

Yeah, when you see whiskey labled as 'Aged 13 years' or what have you that's in bourbon barrels. Like you said, sitting in a sealed glass container there's no change taking place.

Yep, they age in the barrel after that it's as good as it's going to get...... bottles do gain monetary value with age.
