    I have not had Glenmorangie in a long time. I'm glad I know how to pronounce it now.

    I like the Islay peat monsters myself. Lagavulin and Ardbeg are my favorites. But a smooth whisky is very enjoyable too. Cragganmore is my favorite in that department.

    I'm sure there are more exotic and expensive brands out there, but those are commonly available, and not too obscenely priced. But I only break them out for friends and family. I stick to the cheap blends otherwise.

    I have always marvelled that "high end" blends exist. Why would anybody who's spending over $100 for one bottle not go with a single malt ?

    In 1978 my late wife travelled to Scotland to show off our 6 month year old son to his great-grandfather in Aboyne. I was not particularly fond of Scottish whisky and thought it all tasted like Johnny Walker Red Label. A friend of Lorna’s Grandfather convinced me to try a dram of Glenmorangie single malt. I fell in love! To this day Iam still taken back to that day whenever I revisit that dram.

    I just watched these advertisements this past weekend. I thought they were delightful.
