David, as a life-long, dedicated, dyed in the wool, Southern-by-the-Greace-of-God, born-again Southerner, I must say that bourbon is only allowed on my palate if there is no scotch--the aqua vitae, the dew of Heaven, drink of the gods--anywhere within driving distance. (Driving distance= 50 miles)

I assure you that Jock will be purchasing only the finest scotch for my enjoyment, and I will trust in his decision, as I am certain that even a "thrifty" Scot would not pinch at that. And for anyone else meeting up in Greenville, I assure you a wee dram of the finest single malt my poor purse will be able to afford that day.

Personally, I like a good, peaty whisky, but if you, Jock, should decide on some of that milder, rooky lowland stuff, it, too, will suffice. Laphroiag is always acceptable, but then Highland Park is nice and a better buy.
