Jim Beam isn't nearly as good as JD. Don't listen to them and just buy JD, it's not that expensive for whisky.

You could buy it cheaper online or from a wholesaler if you like it so much.

Don't listen to the people who have suggested Southern Comfort. I hate Jack Daniels and adore Southern Comfort. They taste nothing alike.

Do yourself a favour and drink Scotch whisky, it's way better than that nasty American crap. :p:
SoCo and lemonade :coma:

Jack is cheap. I got a fifth for $11 the other day. Why not try the store's own Bourbon?

Cheaper than JD?

Good lord, it's going to be undrinkable. I'm a fan of JD, but it isn't exactly the most refined substance on earth. Going cheaper is going to get you a bottle of utter ****.


:ditto: like piss(watered down) or petrol (undrinkable cos it wil burn your throat!)
Scotch whisky is a good idea.

erm Southern Comfort? It's whisky and cheaper but doesn't taste the same (tastes much better imo).


It's not whisky, it's bourbon. You may as well drink a white wine spritzer.
Besides which, JD is hardly what you'd call decent whisky to begin with.
Southern comfort is a liqueur not whiskey......JD is whiskey (only just). Also sainsburys do a cheaper kentucky bourbon.

Bourbon is whiskey, not a good type granted, being made from corn but whiskey nonetheless. Also I share your sentiments on JD :biggrin:

Southern comfort is a peach-whiskey liquor. Bullet, Jim bean is a decent sub for Jack. Just drink bourbon. Lots of much better cheaper ones than jack
