New to Scotch

Hey guys. I just wanted to drop in the I'll Drink to That room and say hello and get some more information on Scotch Whisky.

First, I want to thank Linn and jazznut for the awesome Whisk(e)y primer. I have learned a lot by reading the primer and searching this forum.

My experience with scotch is very limited. I have tried JW Red and JW Blue I really like the complex flavors and peaty aftertaste of the Blue. However, my recent nuptials (April), cigar habit and gun hobby prevent the $200 bottle purchase of JW Blue.

This leads me to where I am today…..

We had a housewarming party over the weekend and I was given a bottle of Glenfiddich Solera Reserve 15 year old. I really liked this single malt, very tasty and smooth. I think I will begin my journey into the Scotch world by trying different single malts rather than the blends.

Next up is an Aberlour 10 year, and then I may try something more on the smoky, peaty side such as a Lagavulin or Laphroaig.

I am enjoying my journey so far and can’t wait to find the perfect dram.
