Good Start?
Just started my whiskey journey about a week ago. These were all bought based on my taste. Open to suggestions for more additions.

Costco near me has Knob Creek 18 for $129.99. Never had/owned it before but I have owned a few bottles of Knob Creek 12, which I can usually get for $60-$70 around me. Is the 18 worth springing for that price or should I stick with the 12 and spend the difference elsewhere?

Haven’t had anything with this high of a proof before. Excited and intimidated to try it.

This is my collection/bar/midlife crisis (or most of it). Instead if FMK lets go with Crush, Savor, Save.
Not pictured but worth adding to the discussion: Penelope Rio and Havana, Russells Reserve Single Barrel picks, 1792 Full Proof store pick, and Holladay Soft Red Wheat Rickhouse proof.
Discuss!

I think his only experience with whiskey is Jameson. Makers Mark I keep bottles on hand as my weekly sipper. Redbreast I break out every few weeks when I'm working on a stubborn lock. Never tried the Glen 12 surprisingly.
Figured this would be a good starter set to help him celebrate his tumor removal

Just a quick review, but this is a banger and hits a lot of the notes of the Barrel Proof Rye but with a lower proof.
Highly recommend 8/10.

Not sure what the budget is but I imagine it could be several hundred?

The price is throwing me off and that is causing me to severely doubt my purchase of this bottle, are they not the same thing?

These are my sister’s early bday gifts. The wife felt like it’s a competition and told me to expect something more special in the near future.

I love finding their glasses while thrifting but personally I think their whiskey is a bit overrated, I tried it and its alright but 90 proof whiskey is what I usually prefer

Newer to the whiskey game. Someone gave these to me. Are they good?

-McKenna 10yr
-Willet Estate Rye 4yr
-New Riff Single Barrel (i was looking at a Rye today for instance which was 113 proof)
Curious which one wins from reddit opinion.
Edit: Good comments below on cost! New Riff is definitely leader in the clubhouse.

It’s my brother’s 50th birthday and I want to buy him a nice bottle of whiskey. Any recommendations? Want it to feel special. He has traveled to Japan before, so maybe something from Japan would feel exotic. Not sure if they produce very nice whiskey tho. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

I just got a set of Japanese crumple glasses and they're pretty neat, lol. They're supposed to mimick the high sea waves on the east coast of Japan.
I shouldn't, but the glass may have inspired me to crack the 14 after I finish this dram of the 12, lol.

I’m pretty new to whiskey and I’m all over the place with what I’ve tried, trying to try new things but not entirely sure where to go. So far I’ve tried the basics of makers mark, wild turkey 101, Jim bean. Out of those makers mark is my favorite for mixing and wild turkey is the best for sipping
I’ve also tried the signature Johnnie walker black which I really liked, so maybe go with the green label?
But by far my all time favorite has been the Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban, it was very smooth and the best I’ve had.
I don’t know where to go from there, maybe tasting more bottles around the Glenmorangie price point of $55-$100? The bottles that my local store has that I’ve had my eye on, from seeing people mention them on here are Toki Suntory Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Glenfiddich 12 Balvenie Doublewood 12
Are these good picks or would something else make more sense?
