Never drink blended whisky unless it's whyte and Mackay and it's cheap.


Yeah I prefer blended. I did get a bottle of Highland Park Viking Pride for Xmas. But I haven’t opened it.

My wife got it cause it said Viking and I like scotch along with a few Viking themed meads.

I may ask store near me to let me know when Aviation comes in.
I haven't been drinking as much as before but would still like a bottle of Aviation gin.

Sitting on the shelf next to the talisker.

Not sure which to open first.


Which talisker?

Storm is good. But I'd still probably go for the Laphroaig over it.

There's some decent blends out there. The dewars Japanese cask is surprisingly good. I just had some Shackleton which is also pretty good, both especially for the price.

I’m a basic bitch when it comes to Scotch. Johnnie Walker Blue Label. If I can’t find it I’ll bottom barrel it for Black cause they never have the gold reserve when I go in.


Blue label is good but way over priced. I'd rather have a beer than black label.

Blended whisky always feels wrong to me. Like wearing a quartz wristwatch or a fake designer shirt. It's like I don't know what I'm tasting.

That said I will only use blended if I'm mixing it of course, and whisky ice tea is the cocktail of the gods.

Whyte and McKay or vat 69 have done me well.

On the bright side though we weren't that smart or sexy to begin with.
