What is your favorite Scotch Whisky

Partagaspete · 12-09-2008, 12:40 PM

right now I would say the one I am drinking which is Talisker Distillers Edition. Nice and smokey with some peat but not enough to blow yer head off if you know what I mean. I am not sure of the availablity of this model since I got it in SCotalnd at the Glenkinchie distillery. Glenkinchie was too mild for me, nice but too light so I tried this one and bought it. got a nice traditional whisky glass in the bargain and I am not damned of it doesn't improve it. Probably because you really get the aroma first and scent does greatly effect taste. Oh! another thing is I noticed that when I add a very small amount of cold water it really brings out the amoma and flavors. Now I am rambling so I will let you go.

My Favorite hands down is the Glenmorangie Signet which is just being released right now, we have been about to get a couple of bottles of it at the cigar bar I work at part time. It is awesome but pricey about 200 a bottle to us at the bar.

Lagavulin 16 was my first introduction to the world of peaty Scotches. I loved it from the start.

My lovely wife has a bottle for me for Christmas (I found out by accident), which will complement the bottle of 12 year cask strength (2006) that I picked up for me.

It's going to be a good Christmas indeed.
