eon Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I'm curious if anyone tried this whiskey with a coke or other mixer. I usually use Crown Royal or Jack Daniels for "Jack n Cokes" but tempted to try out a bottle of Black Velvet as a cheaper alternative. As a point of reference I tried Canadian Mist before and thought it didnt go well at all with coke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packer01 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I have tried this whiskey with coke before and was not a fan. A great whiskey to mix with coke (and also very affordable) is Wisers "DeLuxe" or "Special Blend". Both are good. eon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkinetics Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 My recollection, from my college drinking days, was BV and Coke was a bad combo. Give me plain ole Jack and Coke, or Gentleman Jack / Single Barrel Jack on ice or chilled. There is almost always a bottle of Jack in my fridge.

Rob g Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Any whiskey that requires coke or some other mixer to make it drinkable should be reserved for bad company or the inlaws. I learned real young that adding coke to whiskey didn't hide the fact the whiskey was crap. It was worth paying a little more to get a hood bottle that could be drank neat or with a little ice. I personally find rye a bit too sweet and prefer a good bourbon or single malt scotch. CeramicChef, rich_l and NIZZLE 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eon Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 I recently tested a bottle of Evan Williams and found it to be just as good as Jack mixed with coke and my favorite combo... cream soda. I understand to truly appreciate whisky it should be sipped straight or on the rocks but I'm still trying to acquire the taste before I can really enjoy that.

captndan Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 No Canadian Mist and Coke do not go together well. Try LTD and Coke Zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
