What to buy for grooms men gift?

**Arsenal72** · July 10th, 2008, 04:26 PM

Hi everyone, new to the site here, just registered about 3 seconds ago....

I'm getting married in a couple of weeks here, and wanted to buy a nice bottle of liquor for each of the grooms men. Some of them drink rum, some of them whiskey, and some vodka.

I was hoping to get them each something that they've probably never had, and that they will be able to enjoy drinking straight, or mixing with.

I'm not looking to spend a ton of cash, but probably anywhere from $20-$40 per bottle.

If you guys could please recommend a couple bottles of each (rum, whiskey, and vodka) that might fit my search criteria I would greatly appreciate it! And I ask for a couple of each in case I can't find a particular brand at my local stores.

Any help is much appreciated!!!

Hey there, welcome to the site. I listed a few for you that should be within your budget.

Vodka- Stoli and Pravda. Stoli is my favorite brand of vodka, it doesn't cost a hell of a lot(maybe around 21.00 for a fifth) and it doesn't come in a flashy bottle, but it's good. Pravda is one damn smooth spirit, and the splendor of the packaging might make this more appropriate for a "special occasion" like this.

Whiskey- Elijah Craig and Eagle Rare. Both top shelf bourbons, and both fantastic drinking experiences. I considered listing some scotch, but that would have probably been cost prohibitive.

Rum- Myer's Dark. I'm not particularly a huge rum guy, but I am a pretty big fan of the darker rums, like Myer's and Goslings. Sailor Jerry makes a fantastic s***ed rum too. Outside of that, I can't be much help

Skip the Elijah Craig 12, get the 18. its around 36 here, and a damn smooth bourbon. Or get a bottle of Bookers its around 46 here, its a Barrel Proof.. they don't cut it. so it comes out between 120-140 proof.
