Don't tell Mom
my favorite less expensive--but still tasty--single malts are Oban and Glenkinchie.

My all time favorite is the Balvenie 21 Port wood finish.....
Blends are a good, tuesday night whisky. Chivas is good. ballantines all right. Jonny has his place, mostly blue and black tho. But there are so many good single malts that I prefer those.....
Others I like:
glenlivet 18
Macallan 15/18
Dalwhinnie 12
i've got a bunch more in the cabinet, but those are the most recent into the tumbler....

That's OK 'cause you can't taste them anyway when you dump them in tonic.
Gin should never be defiled by mixing it with anything but a drop of vermouth.
And, back to the whiskeys, scotch should only receive a splash of spring water. For a nice, easy going, everyday single malt scotch, I like Oban. Special occasions call for anything 12 years or older (depending on how $pecial it is) from Macallen.

I like anything that Padron rolls, but the Anniversarios are heavenly.
Far better than any Dominicans, including the over rated Fuente OpusX

Unless you're drinking Pendleton Whisky, you're wasting your time. (Insert shameless plug - HRD is my wife's company, she does they're marketing and PR)

Ha! I may have some samples in my side "cases" but I suspect you're referring to another type of case...So, we can count on free sample cases at NAFO??Unless you're drinking Pendleton Whisky, you're wasting your time.

@ Fred W - I just sent a friend in Virginia to ABC Liquor to find Pendleton. That is one of the few stores you can purchase Pendleton on the east coast right now. Not sure if you have ABC in your area or not...

Are you talking about this Virginia ABC Liquors? https://www.abc.virginia.gov/ I can say we definitely do not.
We do have the NH State operated liquor stores. Check out the prices!!
But it looks like they don't carry Pendleton. Maybe someone down in Mass might?

Oh, heh, heh, hey, I guess that's what ABC stands for, eh? Sorry, I simply asked my wife the other day where in Virginia, she called their guy on the east coast and he said ABC stores.
It is tough to come by on the east coast - Jack has the market cornered.

I do love whisky. Not so much cigars. Quit smokin' anything a long time ago.
Out of all the store bought stuff I like Dickel 12. On ice in the summer.

Off topic, this is for any forum member who's name is dan. Local liquer store has a new rum named,,,,,"Dan's spiced rum". They were giving 1/2 shot samples away.

I like many, hard to say a favorite. I'd say Oban, Laphroaig, Glenmorangie (port barrel), Talisker are near the top of my list. Usually with a Cuesta Rey pyramid #9!

Not me
I like the Famous Grouse. As I go through a bottle a month (at least) I try not to get myself involved in the higher end bottles.
I do have a bottle of Chivas Royal Salute 21 yr old that I am slowly nursing to emptyness.
We have a liquor store in town called Luka's Liquor Supermarket..that sells seemingly EVERYTHING.
They have free wine tasting on Saturdays, and some times have open bottles of the various Scotches and Whiskeys you can sample. (The only time I missed a saturday tasting was when I was in the hospital)
So , keep up the suggestions , I'm taking notes....
