Something that you would give as a gift and wouldn't drink on a normal basis.

Crown Reserve/Cask16/XR is something that most people like.

I'm currently in love with Bulleit. On par with Reserve to me, and at $19.98 for a 1/5th it's a helluva deal.

ETA: I realize that I'm going to get laughed at by serious drinkers with these suggestions, but I think they're tasty.

Glenmorangie

If your going to give a Scotch, I would avoid the Islays. Not all Scotch drinkers like the smoke.

If you're willing to spend in the 70-80 dollar range, Glenmorangie Artein is a great way to go. Had some recently and it was terrific stuff.



Like someone else said, if you want to go with scotch, you should probably avoid the Islay stuff and stick with the Highlands, since Islays only appeal to some scotch drinkers.

Go to Cuban Liquor on Perkins and ask them to recommend something. They have several nice bottles that would make a good gift.

Blantons if they like sippin whiskey. For a good whiskey and Ginger ale, get grandad or carstairs.
