Single Malts...Laphroaig 10(only because I can't find another age). For those with a deep interest, there is The Scotch Malt Whiskey Society of America at http://www.smwsa.com. It's a bit pricey for me right now but some of you may be interested. Cheers!

Yamazaki made by Sunatory. While expensive it's fairly cheap compared to Johnny Blue. Who would have thought that the Japanese would make great scotch!

I'm a caveman; Dewars on the rocks with a splash of water for me, unless you're buying, then I'll take a Johnnie Walker Blue please.

I'm drinking a couple fingers of Tomatin 12 y/o Scotch SM, in a white coffee mug. It's not my favorite, which which would be Highland Park 18 y/o, but I think Tomatin is a nice fruity whisky for everyday drinking.

Too new to the scotch world to really have acquired a taste for it. I've tried some of the different types though. Lagavulin was too peaty/smoky for me, but I didn't think it was terrible. I've also had some of the Dalmore which I didn't think was bad. I'm watching this thread though, and I'll figure out some of the other brands I should try while just starting out. Probably should find something a little sweeter, or something like that. I'll let you guys know if I find anything once I can get back to drinking. Being at tech school in the Air Force has limited my freedoms. That's ok though, I should be able to hit up the bars here on Monday
