My daddy said drinking Scotch just proves you can cultivate a taste for shixt if you eat enough of it. Regular folks down here don't make much difference between Bourbon and Tennesse sour mash, so Jack Daniel Black is pretty popular, and the better do it yourselfers still have a discriminating clientele.

May I suggest trying the 12 year old blended Scotch with a Kirkland label at Costco. It’s imported from Scotland and distilled by Alexander Murray. There is a single malt reasonably priced as well.

Don't forget the medicinal value of Jack Daniels... ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/QZl8CnU.png) Spray the back of throat during cold and flu season to stave off illness. What a great tour! ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/tH0uBrr.jpg)

Mike Mike, it sounds like your Father had an artistic flair in his use of language. And it certainly appears that Life imitates Art! Laphroaig Select easy to find $50.
For $100, and worth every penny, Lagavulin Offerman. Get it right now. It will not last long if it isn't sold out already. I tried scotch one time back when I was in college. I didn't have to try it again and again to know it was shit. It's nothing but Bourbon for me, and the worst Bourbon I ever drank was far and away better than that scotch.
Voting for anti-gun Democrats is dumber than giving treats to a dog that shits on a Persian Rug

Good vodka, Irish Whiskey and bourbon can be gotten at reasonable prices.
Good Scotch is overpriced, but The Macallan, Glenlivet, Glenfiddich and Glenmorangie are all good scotches and "light" enough for novice Scotch drinkers. Some of the types are very much an acquired taste, such as Islay.
To my tastes Johnny Walker Red or Black, Dewars and others in the same class are crap and taste bad.
Your best bet is to go to a good liquor store and ask them for recommendations.
If you go to bars Jameson's or Bushmill's are always my choice. Good quality at a reasonable price.

...If you want something different, try aged dark rum... Yes, indeed. Partial to El Dorado 12. It's a thick, sweet Demerara that can be cloying if sipped neat. But. A glass of that with a squeeze of lime juice and a small slosh of water is one of my favorite cold-weather, fireside drinks. Without the lime juice, it pairs well with a cup of strong black coffee, taken in alternate sips.
