First it was Black Bottle NAS with a splash of Caol Ila 12
then Dewars 12 and now A'Bunadh #21

I don't know about taking it over single malts, but I prefer it to other blends like Teacher's and Grant's. Nice balance between grain, sherry, and smoke.

After drinking alot of bourbon, the smoke of Ballantines was really pronounced. It surprised me.

I've come to the conclusion that if I'm going to spend the money for a single malt Scotch it's going to be an Islay. Otherwise, it's going to be a blend for me. The one exception is the northern highland Dalwhinnie 15 that I would buy for a special occasion.

Was just about to say:

I did my taxes today and $700 magical dollars more than I expected appeared out of seemingly nowhere. I celebrated this immediately by picking up a bottle of Laphroaig, my favorite scotch. Unfortunately only the 10 year, since I had to pick up a new bottle of my first love (bourbon) and keep it under an even buck.

Starting the evening with Glenlivet Nadurra. Just the right proof (~120) to knock this cold out of me.

Attended a Rosebank tasting last night. 9 different bottles, with the winner being a 25 year old Flor & Fauna. Suprising to me, was that these triple distilled lowlanders were quite complex, and very very good. Just a wonderful old distillery lost to Diageo. They're ( not Diageo..but the new owners) ,are turning the old place into Condo's. So lame. Followed that up with a 6 year old Laphroaig that was fantastic, and a new batch of Wasmunds. I have not cared for Wasmunds at all, but this lateset batch..25, is really starting to show promise. Batch 5...not so much.

Moved on to Talisker 10 and now Ardberg 10. ahhhh...

Highland Park 12.

Bowmore 12 - my first ever single malt. most everything I'd read about an Islay seemed to be there. amazing!

Just cracked a MacCelland Islay - produced by Bowmore
Its kind of like a 2nd barrell or lower tier to the top level Bowmore - but good stuff.
Best part its 1/2 the price so great price to value/quality.
I love Bowmore and always have a bottle on hand but like most single malts - getting awfully pricey.
