For just sipping neat or on the rocks, I like single malt Scotch. My favorite is Glenmorangie, but I’m not very picky.
As for as mixed drinks go, I’m fine with a Captain Morgan and Diet Coke or a vodka and cranberry.

Vodka. It’s the tofu of alcohol- it just absorbs the flavor of whatever mixer I use. Can’t stand gin. Rum is nice while on vacation, but getting drunk on it is often vomit-inducing. A rye in ginger is nice once in a while, but both whisky and brandy are too strong for me to drink straight. Tequila… haven’t had that since school.
Flavored Vodka.
Gin as a second.
Are we talking straight? None of them.
Brandy – I don’t think I’ve had it
Gin – out in any form because I used to love it but then got sick on it a couple of times.
Rum – if disguised in a mixed drink, otherwise I don’t like the taste
Tequila – never had it
Vodka – OK in a mixed drink
Whisky – maybe in a whiskey sour, but straight it makes me nauseous
Other – Bailey’s, Kahlua, Campari, Amaretto
Straight? None of them. Mixed? Gin and Tonic - Tanqueray and Schweppes with a fresh lime.
Bourbon
Rum
Whiskey - I divide my attention about evenly among bourbon, scotch, and rye. I pretty much always have a bottle of one of them in the house.
Gin - a distant second, but I like a martini sometimes
The others on your list I rarely drink. I have a margarita maybe twice a year.
drinking straight?
Tequila (100% agave)
Whiskey - (single malt Scotch)
In a mixer? Any one of them can apply - depends on my mood.
Brandy – In a brandy Manhattan (aka “Brown Mumbler”) is the only way.
Gin – I can do it straight if it’s Bombay Sapphire, otherwise hot summer days with tonic and a lime wedge please. Number two on my list.
Rum – My all time *least * favorite. At it’s worst it’s dry and antiseptic, and it’s best it’s too full of burnt sugary notes for me.
Tequila – I do like a sunrise from time to time, but my second least favorite really.
Vodka – Ok for bloody marys, otherwise what’s the point?
Whisky – Is the life of man. Always was since the world began. Far and away my favorite.
Other – Moonshine?
Whiskey, particularly bourbon. Current favorite is Bulleit.
From the list: Rum rum rum! Specifically, Malibu and banana-orange juice.
In general: Midori and Sprite.
You’re such a girl.
Bombay Sapphire Gin for martinis and the occasional G&T on a hot summer’s day.
Getting into single malts, slowly. Very nice on the palette, but hard on the wallet.
Rum is probably my favorite, then either gin or whiskey.
Depends a lot on the day and the circumstance.

Vodka. Can become just about anything.
Straight - single malt scotch
Mixed drinks - Gin, either in a dirty martini or G&T. Tequila in a margarita would be second
Vodka, as in vodka martini, followed by bourbon
The only one on the list I really don’t like at all is gin.
Moved from IMHO to CS.
Tequila
More than anything, tequila.
