After my Step Dad passed, Mom emptied his (rather large; always ready for a party) liquor locker and I inherited a bunch of stuff, to include a 1/3 bottle of Oban.

I just can’t. Wish I could, but the stuff is just awful. The bottle is pretty, so I’ll just use it for ‘decor,’ LOL!

Oban is pretty mild as far as Islay's go.

Sounds to me as Scotch in general will not be to your taste.
