No more than $20.

Was thinking Famous Grouse or J&B? Any others i'm missing that might be better?

WOW! I'm not saying you have to spend OT Baller money to get a good Scotch, but under 20? You probably don't really want Scotch at that price.

If your willing to spend 40 you can get a bottle of Macallan 10. For 20 bucks youre going to have to go blended. Dewars or grouse.

this is for an extended family member who is used to drinking Usher's. They give me no more than a $10 present every year that I usually toss in the trash. So it's basically to the point to say "i got you something"

Famous Grouse


this...very good for a blend and you can get a handle (locally, at least) for $29.99.

I'm a Dewar's man myself. You can get a handle (with an actual handle) for sub 40. A fifth will run you about 20.


Quick CSB- My local liquor store is run by Achmed. Dude has an uncanny memory of what you buy. Once I bought a Red Bull, a box of Marlboro lights and a handle of Charter. Every handle of Charter I bought after that he would ask (in Mid East speak) "what no Red Bull? No Marlboro light?". Anyway I bought Dewar's there quite often. One particular time I went though and he was out of Dewar's. He hates to be out of anything that somebody wants, and begged forgiveness with an explanation that the truck was running tomorrow. I told him no biggy, I would come back tomorrow and procure my Dewars. I leave the store and walk out to my truck. As I am opening my door I hear him run out yelling (in Mid East speak) "Wait! Wait! I have da bird! I have da bird!"

"You have what?" (redneck speak)
"Da bird! You know da big bird! I have it!"
"What da frick is da bird Achmed?"
"You know the bottle has da big bird! On the bottle, big bird. I no have Dewar's but I have da bird!"

Long story less long, Achmed talked me into buying my first handle of Famous Grouse. I liked it. If you can't find Dewar's, you can always get Da Bird.

Famous grouse is the best cheap scotch but may be a little more than that. The stocks are primarily highland park and macallan.

Another vote for Famous Grouse for relatively inexpensive blended Scotch. Bought some this weekend. Not bad at all for mixing with.
