Scotch

[Newfie]

I agree with Jon. I believe AVB knows more about Scotch than Jonnie Walker!!!

Personally, you can't go wrong with either The Glenlevit (my favourite) or Glenfiddich.

I love scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly...

I love poetry, and a glass of scotch, and, of course, my friend Baxter here.

I also am interested in trying a good scotch, but $50 is a little high for me. Anyone recommend a cheaper bottle?

I like Tomatin 12yr. It's in the $22-$25 range. A pretty good value, IMHO. YMMV.

I am a scotch guy and I gotta tell ya it is about $15 or so more than you want to spend but johnnie walker gold lable is fantastic its an 18 year old scotch and smooth as hell. you can go green lable for a little cheeper and its good as well. most 12 year old scotch wiskeys,(ie johnnie black, chivas regal,etc) in my opinion are better suited to use in a mix drink do to them being quite a bit more harsh.

Dalmore 12yr is tasty, around 25 bucks. I don't usually drink blends.

Scotch has a smoky bite in comparison to Bourbon, period. If you must have it though, and price is no concern, then Glenlivet or JW gold is your drink. IMHO cheap scotch isn't worth drinking straight. Bourbon, brandy, or dark rum is better, you can get a decent sipping spirit for a more reasonable price. For instance, Gentleman Jack is an excellent sipping whiskey for $25 bucks a bottle.
