Of course Jose writes a post on Jack Daniel's when his previous post describes what's left in the liquor cabinet. I picture him getting bored of playing mario kart against some 12-year old somewhere in the world and brushing the dust of the Jack. But Jack is worth looking into. I know for most people (including myself) Jack brings back memories of stuffy frat basements and beer pong. True, the Jack made its presence known in the grimey parties Jose and I used to frequent. But do not make the mistake of underestimating it.
Look, I'm not saying that a Jack on the rocks gives you the pleasure of a 15 year Laphroaig or anything remotely close, I'm just inviting you to revisit the Tennessee legend. Again, I'm not going to go into huge details regarding what you're going to catch on the nose (one, because I don't remember and two, because I can't tell myself), but what I can say is that some Jack on the rocks (unlike Scotch, I throw some ice in it) is a good bang for your hard-earned buck. I mean, you can get a liter and a half for something like 35 bucks! That's a LOT of sauce! And for something that doesn't taste half bad and leaves a good long finish, that's pretty good.
