Kadeshpa, have you considered removing that spinning face in your sig. Every time I read one of your posts, I scroll down that part as quick as I can to avoid getting dizzy.

Macallan 12 is awesome! I just can't afford the 15 or 18.

I can't drink too much though or it'll burn my tongue.

Oofah, my stomach can't handle the 12. I thought I'd give it a try as spending 80 bucks a weeks was becoming a serious monthly expense. I bought a bottle and got a bad stomach ache the first day I drank it. Not bad tasting, but something with the filtering or whatever that didn't sit with me at all.

Scotch rules. LOVE Lagavulin. Expensive, but delicious. Also love all varieties of McCallan.

Another nice, peaty scotch to try is Oban.

So, I tried the Lagavulin yesterday with my dad. my dad hated it, as he's not a scotch drinker.

I found it to be different than any other scotch I've tried. The aroma was like smelling smoked barbequed meat. Like brisket or good ribs. I enjoyed a small sample over about 30 minutes, I was even just enjoying the smell after the glass was empty. It was smooth, but not as sweet as the most scotches. I'm sure most people would laugh about me calling any scotch sweet, I guess I have strong taste buds. I'm sure I'll be drinking lagavulin again in the future.

Thanks for the recommendation kadeshpa!

I think Chivas has a 24yr that I wanna try next. I love the regular 12 year chivas.
