Whisky appreciation

[Hornedfrogbbq]

Not sure how many other whisky lovers there are here but I am one of them.

Do a bit of writing occasionally for a few hunting magazines and nothing is a better accompaniment to writing than a nice dram.

Alot of peat in that one...bit much for me.

Looking for a reasonable daily sipper that won't break the bank and can be used in a mixer if the need arose. Scottish single malts preferred, current candidates are:

• Glen Moray
• Tamnavullin
• Aberfeldy
• Tomatin
• Smokehead Peat
• Monkey Shoulder (blend, but pretty good)

Any others to consider?

I've liked Speyburn. Only tried the 10yr and wouldn't consider myself any type of connoisseur. I like it a lot more than the glen moray I tried. The 10yr is not expensive. I generally drink it neat.

Stumbled into this Rye this week, I haven't had much of Ole Overalls. Looking forward to cracking this one open after I received a couple recommendations.

@Trogon - I've had a couple of the Penelope whiskies...absolutely lovely. Like to know what you think when you get around to cracking them.

One vote for the Sherry cask finished Glen Moray!

@BeeMaa , will do! I've been told some bottles are much more desirable; unfortunately I can't speak to any yet

Penelope is fantastic it is a mgp juice, but a very good one(don’t get me wrong I have a few bottles in the wings). I just opened a bottle of wild turkey rare breed barrel proof that’s punching above its weight class.

Love the single malt, can’t afford the real expensive ones. Bold Silver Top dry gin neat, is a favorite also.
