Black Label is the absolute minimum I'll go. When times are better, Aberlour 16 or Glenfarclas 15.

I was in the same boat until I discovered the glory of Famous Grouse. It’s not bad, not great, $32 for a handle and hits about the same as black label. I’d still prefer a nice single malt, but times are tough.
Jack Daniels is fucking disgusting. Some people even dare to consider it whiskey, which is a fucking disgrace.
Jack Daniels not being in Canada anymore is a net positive for me because i never accidentally get jack when I ask for whiakey.
What do you usually get when you ask for whiakey?
Pretty much always 40 creek.
Cut off.
J.P. Wisers or Forty Creek.
Jack Daniels is as close to whiskey as America is close to Berlin.
I bet lots of rockstars on their starting days only drank it because they didnt know better and didnt have enough money. Guns n' Roses had a song after a weird caffeinated wine that was very cheap, it's the same thing I think. It was called Night Train.
I wanna know how you buy just two packets of ramen.
What, do they sell the packets individually at a corner store?
Where I shop, individual packets are your only option if you want something other than basic chicken or beef flavor.
Huh.
I've not seen that. Everywhere I've been, its the little mini pallettes of... 10 or 12 or something.
Every store I've ever been to sells them individually?
My grocery store absolutely sells singles or 12 packs.
Wtf.
lol poverty and alcoholism
You must be poor drinking that swill.
I can buy cheaper alcohol that is better quality than the swill that Jack Daniels is.
As far as that goes Canadian mist which is a blended whiskey is far superior to fucking jack daniels.
As a Tennessean, drink something else. Because of Jack Daniels legal thca is being criminalized in the state starting July 1.
I mean and it's terrible whiskey
Haha you are absolutely not wrong.
There's a couple higher end variants that's are drinkable. But I'm not going to give them the coin to get them.
Bullet is cheap and tasty
That's my go to. The 10 year is a staple in my house. Had some barrel? Strength a while back it was great.
Everything they make is quality

[serious] If you can afford whiskey, you can afford decently balanced diet.
My grocery receipts got a whole lot thinner after I stopped drinking alcohol. And trust me when I say that in my country alcohol is super cheap.
Everyone's talking about the whisky, but are we not gonna discuss how Maruchan's Creamy Chicken is one of their worst flavors?
Beef is really the only option imo.
Beef is OK but straight Chicken is best.
Would you like a shot of Jack with a Jack chaser?
Is that a 375ml bottle? That one is the 2nd worst priced bottle to buy next to the 1 liter bottle. Idk why they price them so awful but they do. Best priced is 1.75 liter then 750ml followed by the pint bottle which is the first bottle pictured here i believe. Source, worked in liquor store for 3 years.

Have some class goddamnit! You are living like an animal!
Glenfiddich and Nong Shim Shin Ramyun Black, get it now!
ewww, what horrid whisky choice. I'd almost rather drink everlcear then touch that putrid stuff.
See, the way I like Jack, I like it because its horrible and shitty.
There are many much better, much more well rounded bourbons and whiskeys.
But sometimes, the point is to basically kick yourself in the face, via a drink.
But have you tried Malort?
Actually no, never tried it.
I've only heard it is notoriously awful.
