Scotch Lovers - Let Me Know Who You Are

Oban
Glenlivet 18
Lagavulin

My favs and all great drops

 

[AGS]

single malt etc

Was given a bottle of BOWMORE Islay single malt "darkest" - 15 year old. Not too shabby!
Taste tested 4 Johnny Walkers with a fellow who knows his whisky. Red, Black, Gold and Blue. I opted for the Black, believe it or not. Buddy raved about the Blue. The Bowmore blew them all away. Upward and onward.

Sounds like good times in Canada

i've tried a few single malts (glenlivet, glenfiddich, and others) but i always go back to my faves, johnnie red....black...green....

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
For me Johnny Red is undrinkable straight

Nice stuff but I don't find it better than a good single malt. I will take Macallan 18yr over that Blue Label any day. btw, I saw it at Costco for $130.

 

[rsea]

Got to agree tflgee
It's a great scotch for non-scotch drinkers

I am new in the scotch game, starting to find some single malts that are amazing. Macallan 12 is great to me... never had the 18. Also, anyone ever tried Glenkinchie 12? I don't see it around too much but I had some a while back, was amazing. (single malt)

yes i had a bottle of Glenkinchie 12 that I just bought. Very smooth, nice malty yet slightly tarty bite, which I love.

Highland Park is one of my favs, just got one for $60

http://www.johnlwhiskey.com/images/J-L-Sullivan-Whiskey-Front.pngI just got a bottle of John L. Sullivan Whiskey for Christmas. Very smooth and a great value.

"John L. Sullivan vs. Jake Kilrain
The Library of Congress photograph below is from the last Bare-Knuckle world title bout in history. It ended a 170 year legacy of champions. John L. Sullivan (chest facing camera) defeated challenger Jake Kilrain after 75 brutal rounds, when Kilrain’s corner stopped the fight upon the doctor's advice that he would surely die if he continued. Held on July 8th, 1889, in Richburg, Mississippi, the fight lasted two & a half hours, under a blistering midday sun. Both fighters were said to be sipping a mixture of sweet tea and whiskey in-between rounds.

do u feel like fighting after drinking it ?

......bought a bottle of Johnny Walker Gold over the holidays. It was ok, but not worth $100.00 a bottle, imo. I much prefer Glenlevit 12 yr old @ $36.00 a bottle.....

 

[thedoover]

I'm a fan of Dalwhinnie, Auchentoshan (sp?), Bunnehaiban. Like a touch of the honey flavors.

 

[sharrkey]

Here a few of my favourites, just can't bring myself to open the 18yr old ones, must have had them for over 12 years. The 100% proof one is really smooth.

 

[Footski]

There is only one Scotch for me...............

VAT 69. Not for the purest's perhaps. But smooth as a Porn Stars snatch !!!

 

[brlover]

Black label or macallan 12 for me.

Blue Label on my Birfday

Isle of Jura is my personal favourite, I joined the Diurachs and never looked back...
