How is the Bowmore 18 for a newbie? Stick w/the Glenmorangie 1st?

I'd start with the Glenmorangie to warm yourself up. Then give the Bowmore a try. Just cleanse your palate in between with some bread or a plain, unsalted cracker and some water. Go slow on the Bowmore though. It should be pretty smooth at 18, but the taste will still be bigger than the Glenmorangie.

Just us know your impressions.

Bowmore 18 can be pricey. Why not start with a Bowmore 10, a great single malt, at about 1/3 the price!

I really like Bowmore Darkest. Probably in the middle pricewise.

I picked up the Bowmore for $60 w/a leather Bowmore cigar case
