You have the right of it, sir. Don t drink much, but when I do, it’s Laphroaig, Bowmore or Bunnehabin.
My father said that until one developed a taste for it, scotch tasted like “water left-over after a fire”.
He developed a taste for it.
Particularly Laphroaig.
A perfect combo with a Drew Estate Kentucky Fire Cured cigar.
Slainte!
Hi. I hope you are doing well.
“Bowmore.” I have had (a few times), “Balmore.” An excellent single malt.
Now I’m wondering if the two are the same?

I love Bowmore and have been drinking it for years. Different than Balmore as far as I know.
You know you are a good friend if I offer you Bowmore.
I’d say that’s Well scotch.
“You know you are a good friend if I offer you Bowmore.”
Hey, we have known each other twelve years!

I hope you weren't flying the plane!
When I was too young my Dad would always have a fifth of Black & White in the bar. Hated the taste. Luckily they always had Bombay gin for my Mother.
One day I, the bookworm around 13, decided I should investigate this drunk thing and with only B&W available I’d have a shot with every 45 record I played.
Strangely I have a very clear memory of my older brother finding me on the floor still in my chair but with only the two back legs on the ground - the front legs were pointing towards the record player.
I was completely helpless as he laughed and took my keys out of my pocket and opened up my lock box and robbed me.
I don’t think its even in the US anymore but after that day I never touched the B&W again. ;-)
If you get here I will break out the Bowmore.
I’m going to have to find the Ice Mold for that.
I may have broken my scotch cherry with B&W. At least it was at that level or below. My friend and I drank the whole bottle. I was hooked after that.
