I know have a bottle of the Balvenie Caribbean Cask. I have not quite decided what I think of that yet.

I refer to Glenmorangie, Glenlivet and Glenfiddich as the "Glens." All are very good, but none are as good as Macallan. I think I have at least half a bottle of one of them in the liquor cabinet right now. I also have some 21YO Balvenie that again, is good, but not as good as the Macallan.

I'm still experimenting with scotch. Didn't really start acquiring a taste for it until a few short years ago. I am now trying to figure out where specifically that taste lies. All I know is that I am going to enjoy "touring" the different regions of Scotland on the journey.

This is the time of year where I pretty much exclusively drink scotch and bourbon, and ignore the beer - and I'm always looking to try something new.

What's your favorite?

As far as bourbon is concerned, I'm a big fan of Black Maple Hill. Very reasonable at $40 a bottle.

Kind of makes me wish I'd got some while it was only $300 a bottle. :sulk:

Yummy.

The company I used to work for would have an open bar for their Christmas party and I'd always drink plent of the 12 year since that is what was available.

Nursed quite a bit longer. I just finished the 18 last night. I have just over half of the estate reserve.

I prefer Straight Kentucky Bourbon over Scotch.

Jim beam for the workin man.

This is the thread I was looking for. Getting ready to go get some single malt, obviously not in the $500/bottle range.

I have 1 wine glass. I use it to drink martinis, scotch, wine, and gin and tonics.

I'm boring like that.
