    I have been a blended Scotch drinker for years, I really didn't get into the single malts until recently, (mostly because of this bunch around here). I like the Glenlivet 12, Highland Park and my new discovery Blavenie Double Wood, which I think is the best I have tried.

    Jameson's Irish Whisky and Dewar's 12 are both good, of course neither are single malts, Famous Grouse is still a good everyday drink.

    I'm not much of Scotch drinker either, but I gave a bottle of the Balvenie Double Wood 12 year to a friend for his wedding, and we shared a dram or two. I thought it was pretty good.

    My parents brought back a bottle of Mortlach when they visited Scotland in 1995. My brother and I tried it with a little water at Christmas that year, and it was very good.

    There is GOOD Scotch and BAD scotch.

    MrBill
    MrBill, that reminds me of something I read somewhere:
    "There's whisky, and there's guid whisky, but there's nae bad whisky!"
    I don't know that I agree with it, but there it is.
