Scotch.... Mr.Connery's fav

[Kcwhippet]

WoW, You're a gal after my own heart! We'll have to share a dram, or two, next August. Glenmorangie is one of the ones I forgot to mention, but I've never really been a big fan of The Glenlivet, in any of its incarnations. It is a nice drink, but it's just too two dimensional for me, maybe because it's such a big place - almost like the Anheuser-Busch of Scotch. If you want "big", Caol Ila is one I'd recommend. It's even bigger than Ardbeg. Glad you like it neat, too, though with some Scotch a mere touch of water is needed to bring out all the character. That's particularly so with the cask strength versions from Caidenhead and Gordon & MacPhail. Haven't been to the Dan'l Webster Inn yet, but I've been by it several times over the years and I've heard really good things about the restaurant. I guess we'll have to give it a try soon.
