I don't recall ever being drunk enough to taste urine, especially not someone else's. Is that a British thing?

Only Scotch drinkers get that drunk. ;)

It's definitely a foo-foo drink. Honestly, I never understood it's popularity as a bourbon. That candy taste just reminds me of cough syrup. Still, I think I'd rather it than anyone's urine, even my own.

Lagavulin
Balvenie
Laphroig
Edradour
Talisker
Aberlour

But I'll drink just about any good single malt.

If someone only keeps blends, I'll usually ask for their bourbon selection. Maker's Mark is good anytime.

I have yet to acquire a taste for scotch. I've tried again and again and it still hasn't taken.

I do drink bourbon and whisky, though usually mixed with coke or ginger ale, so I really have no preference. I buy rye whisky on occasion but that is just because I love The Big Sleep so much and want to feel a bit like bogie. :lol:

A good Talisker
Johnny Walker Blue Label
Glenlivet (my "go to")

Over the last few years (since my honeymoon in Scotland in fact) I have grown a love for scotch wiskey, and now every year for Father's Day my wife gets me a bottle of The Glenlivet and a big bag of my favorite mix of tobacco for my pipes. God bless that woman.

Hmm, for some reason I thought they dropped the first "h", but now checking a bottle I see you are correct P&P. I knew it was different than the American spelling.

Oh, and I can tolerate Crown Royal in a pinch.
