Clan MacGregor...’cause it’s cheap. Sensing a pattern here?
I’m working on a bottle of Buchanan now. I tried it for the first time in Monterey,Mexico earlier this year and kind of liked so I am working the bottle to see if it is repeatable or not.
I like Chivas a lot.
I really enjoy Johny Walker Black - Just Like That (neat).
The Glenlivet for a single malt.
Johnny Walker Black for a blend.
I don’t know why it took a Dane to come up with this list of whisky websites, but it did:
THE ULTIMATE WHISKY LINK EXCHANGE.

I drink a mixture of white lightning with a little cat pee. Tastes just like scotch. Yeeech!
Not a big liquor drinker at all but I’ve tried lots over the years :)
For scotch I like JW Black Label and Chivas, over ice or neat. Famous Grouse is pretty good too.
In the singles I like Glenlivet and Highland Park. I tried Laphroaig once when it was on sale and thought it must be what paint stripper tastes like (ducking).
Tape, by 3M.
Lagavulin, Talisker, Cadenheads and whatever you’re buying.
Lagavulin.
What’s more, my wife, who had been of the opinion that she did not like Scotch, likes it, too!
Laphroaig and Lagavulin are both quite excellent.
Lagavulin, without a doubt is my favorite. But reserved for special occasions. For an amazing and far less expensive drink, try “The Smokey Peaty One,” from Jon, Mark & Robbo’s Easy Drinking Whisky Co. Sounds like a joke, but it is everything the names imply.
Gotta go with “Famous Grouse” for everyday all around taste, and “Johnny Blue” for special occasions!
Glenlivet 12 is just fine - neat or with water. Glenfidich good neat, but don’t like it with water. Older single malts I’ve occasionally tried aren’t wotrh it for me. De gustibus non disputandum est.
The Case (or 31 of them) of the Missing Whisky
The British Revenue & Customs people are convinced a shipment of 186 bottles of a rare cask of Highland Park Scotch whisky left Glasgow Airport as scheduled.
What they don't know is what happened to it.
The shipment, valued at $240,000US, was aboard a Delta Airlines flight bound for Los Angeles, intended to be delivered to Saybrex International, a Beverly Hills spirits company. The 32-year-old whisky is rated as one of the top single malts in the world.
“We are shocked and outraged that 31 cases of alcohol weighing some 800 pounds can just disappear while in the care of Delta and various governmental agencies,” said Ari Bussel, Saybrex International's vice president of operations.
