What would you suggest for a smokey/peat flavor? I had some Ardbeg 10 last year that has kind of got me wanting more.
Broncos are officially the worst team in the nation this year.

I still say dollar for dollar Makers Mark is right up there for everyday bliss.
I'd say three thumbs up if I had three thumbs.

Maker's is good. Leave out the ice and you'll have something.

While not a bourbon or scotch....Pendleton is a very smooth blended Canadian whisky.

Do you ice guys really find the full aroma and taste that overwhelming? All ice does is dampen both.
No, I take that back. It also negatively impacts the balance of flavors as well.

AKA sweet kid stuff. Whatever...You got a first time whisky drinker posting above that may just like it. I personally like most whisky except that cough syrup you call scotch... and sometimes I drink it neat but sometimes I enjoy an ice cube in it. I do not however mix it with pop or soda whatever you may want to call it. I sir am not an alcohol swab ....er I mean snob.

No, I take that back. It also negatively impacts the balance of flavors as well. I am not sure what it is...I can do Blantons straight...but with the cost of a few cubes of ice I can make a bottle of makers last alot longer....all about money. Ice is cheap...and doesn't take away from the effect or taste(of makers) for me. If I spend +$50 for a fifth, I will not soil it with Ice....but most under that need a little spoiling.

You got a first time whisky drinker posting above that may just like it. Yeah, but I didn't want to corrupt them. I don't hate or even really dislike Canadian, it's usually just not very interesting. I don't recall, have you tried Forty Creek Barrel Select?
