What are you drinking?

[Dan R]

I am moving in a Scotch direction of late, mostly because I found a good one that isn’t ridiculously expensive.

I discovered after experiencing Laphroaig, which is so peaty that the Redhead makes me open windows if I pull the cork, that I actually like peaty island Scotch better than the more smokey flavors of highland Scotch. My discovery was Bowmore 12-year, one of the traditional Islayan distilleries that everybody but me already knew about. It’s peaty but mildly so, very flavorful and no hint of harshness. It’s actually smoother than my usual Elijah Craig bourbon, which is pretty dang smooth. It’s easy to drink neat.

Maybe just a hint of florals in the aftertaste, but nothing annoying at all.

It’s expensive enough to prevent alcoholism, but tasty enough to lead one astray.

I truly enjoyed Lagavulin until it became too expensive for me to drink in quantity.

Peaty is good!

Today it is this in martinis.



It is quite flavorful with a nice aroma.

Cheers!

Good, malt whiskey is hard to come by in Turkey so I'll settle for this. Haven't had it before but it's quite nice
