I can agree: for an economical 'everyday' Scotch, JW Black is an excellent choice. For those special times, 'vulin.

I like Dewers for a blended Scotch.

Prefer bourbon myself, but if I had to pick a Scotch, I’d probably take Laphroaig.

How about Blagojevich Scotch Whiskey? The proof increases every day.

Talisker sucks.

Where is Oban?

And if he is talking about the best scotches, why include black label and not blue label?

This topic demands a sea shanty!

OOOooo, whiskey is the life of man,
Whiskey, Johnny!
I drink whiskey when I can
Whiskey for my Johnny!

Whiskey from an old tin can,
Whiskey, Johnny!
I’ll drink whiskey when I can.
Whiskey for my Johnny!

I drink it hot, I drink it cold,
Whiskey, Johnny!
I drink it new, I drink it old.
Whiskey for my Johnny!

I thought I heard the old man say,
Whiskey, Johnny!
I’ll treat my crew in a decent way.
Whiskey for my Johnny!

A glass of grog for every man,
Whiskey, Johnny!
And a bottle full for the chanteyman.
Whiskey for my Johnny!

Whiskey makes me pawn my clothes.
Whiskey, Johnny!
And whiskey gave me this red nose.
Whiskey for my Johnny!

YEA HAY! CHEERS!

Oddly enough, I like Johnnie Red better than the Black. But either one is definitely the best blended Scotch. Actually, I like the Green best of all, even better than the Blue - which I have only had on one occasion - but for an everyday Scotch, JW Red or Black are the best.

My other faves are Laphroaig and Lagavulin.

It ain’t a Scoth, but I like Bushmill’s.

".....with notes of fruitcake and sweet seaweed."

During the holidays I'd often sit there stuffing myself with fruitcake and seaweed and think to myself, "wish there was a drink that tasted like this." No, not really.

I enjoy both JWalker Gold and Blue. Never been much of a Black fan.

McAllen used to be my favorite, but as of late, my favorite has been Balvenie. Been working my way through a bottle of 21 year Bal, and it’s been wonderful.

I prefer bourbons but I do have a dumb question. Are all Scotch whiskeys made in Scotland? Is the term Scotch used to define a style or where it is made?

It’s almost impossible to find and I have no idea how much it costs now (I haven’t had a drink in 18 years, but it was about $100 a bottle back in 1990) and it’s a blend, but Usquabach is the best Scotch I ever tasted and I used to drink a lot of Scotch.
