Oh my friend you made me smile. I am in fact planning a weekend floating down the whiskey river myself. My brother and I love that stuff. But what type? So many choices. As in real life I can't say that I really discriminate when it comes to the fire water, as if I have some Coke I'm set to go. I would have to say that I really enjoy Crown Royal because it's not super pricey, it's very smooth and easy to drink. If I want to get a fifth under $20 there's only one choice: 7 Year old Jim Beam. See I'm from Kentucky and only whiskey made in KY can be called Bourbon. As I matter of fact my wife was raised in Bourbon County! I have to support my home heritage no matter where I'm living in the country. It's much cooler to be out on the West Coast and order a shot of Jim Beam because everyone knows that you like to party down. When we're drinking to get rowdy we mix up the Black Tooth Grins, courtesy of Dimebag Darrell of course.... A liberal pour of whiskey and a DASH of coke. Now you got me really excited for my good friends party this weekend. Cheers!
P.S. Amber my lady you sure do know your stuff. Bluegrass state baby!

I noticed that you asked the question about whiskey and not whisky.
The drink Whisky (no e) is essentially Scottish in origin (refered to as scotch).
Whiskey (with the e) is essentially Irish.
As to the Irish - I love Paddy's.
Locke's 8 year old single malt is rather nice too.
Greenore Single Grain Whiskey is lovely, though not easy to get hold of.
Bushmill's is probably the best known in the UK... readily available in stores and pubs.
As to why I prefer it to scotch - it tends to be slightly sweeter and easier on the palate.
Some of the 'island' scotches are rather nice too - take a single malt like Isle of Islay (LAPHROAIG is an excellent example)

I like Bourbon, still classified as a whiskey but certainly different than blended whiskeys like Jack Daniels and Scotch and Irish whiskies. Amongst the many bourbons available I tend to favor the Wheat Bourbons including brands like Makers Mark, Pappy Van Winkle (aged 23 years), Old Fitzgerald and Weller's. They are smoother than the others.

Only single malt Scotch - Numerous brands, but from the Highlands not Low lands - I prefer the sweeter fruitier flavours over the pete like earthy flavours you get from the later.
