This next part has nothing to do with scotch, but more with the dream of correcting magician. I am fairly certain 'I've' cannot be used as a contraction for the possessive form of 'I have'.

Also, 'drunk' is not a verb.
Drunk: Merriam-Webster seems to think it's the past participle of drink; that makes it sound verbal.
You'd have preferred . . . what? . . . I've never drinked Scotch?

^ Johnny Blue is smoooth, but I find that the flavor isn't as distinct as most single malt Scotch. As mentioned above, it's great, but not worth the price of admission. A bottle of Blue is like a boat; great if somebody you know has one.

i would of preferred 'drank'. drunk implyez alcoholizm. You dirty drunkard
"Drunk", when used as an adjective, may imply alcoholism, and when used as a noun strongly implies alcoholism, but not when used as a verb.
I have drunk Pepsi; indeed, I drank some this morning.
Neat.
Sorry muthangya, you're SOL

Laphroaig is under-represented here 
Sure it tastes like a hospital full of peat moss burning to the ground but quickly you realize that's a good thing.
Glad to see it was discovered and one other fella knows about it too!

Sorry but I am not a Laphroaig fan at all. It tastes way to mossy/earthy and isn't smooth IMHO. Personally I feel that it is just a marketing gimic.
Macallan is my fav. Smooth, favorful and not overpowering.

I'd be quite surprised to discover that 195 years ago a small distillery on a tiny island off the coast of Scotland decided that they'd develop a marketing gimmick.
