There are actually quite a few [whiskey-based liqueurs](https://www.thewhiskyexchange.com/c/311/whisky-liqueurs). I once accidentally bought Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey Whiskey Liqueur, mistaking it for actual Jack Daniels. It took me years to finish the bottle. My sister gave me a bottle of Jim Beam Apple Liqueur for Christmas several years ago, which I find totally undrinkable. But I can’t think of anybody who would want it that I can palm it off on. I like Drambuie, and find Southern Comfort and Yukon Jack tolerable, but I rarely drink them.
