I’m trying real hard to save it for tailgating Saturday…..the struggle
Don’t. It’s not a tailgating whisky. It’s a post victory whisky. But not an Auburn victory, it’s more of a Bama victory.

I didn’t find the 15 that much better than the 12, which I like. The 18 on the other hand, OMG that’s some good chit!

You thought the pinnacle of scotch was a blend?

Will try
I am new to the scotch thing
Anything that stands up to Macallan

Let us know when you leave the Highlands and get to Islay.

No matter what scotch, bourbon, cognac, wine someone says they like, 15 people will say their favorite is better. It is the mantra of the FDB.

Johnnie Walker Blue
I you like this,
quote:
Macallan 12
and you like this,
quote:
Caol Ila 12 & 18
Then you need to try these.
The whisky that doesn't get put into Caol Ila single malt bottles is used to make Johnnie Walker blends.

I fully agree. However, and I’m being completely honest, if I don’t at least crack it open tomorrow, I’ll end up drinking it on a random Tuesday because I can’t wait

I picked up a Lagavulin 2020 Distillers Edition a few days ago, will probably crack it open this weekend at some point.
