10. Love the Balvenie Double Wood |
|
And Craggenmore. Cardhu is pretty good if you like smoky. Craggenmore's the best though IMHO.

15. Will I be punished for buying the Double Wood from Sam's Club? |
|
They have it for $10.00 less than my local liquor store.

18. I'm a Costco member, and now I'm admittedly envious |
|
Cause Costco's Scotch selection ain't much to write home about.
That said, the best place to buy single-malts is CANADIAN DUTY-FREE SHOPS. Or at least they were before the US dollar tanked.

7. I just got a bottle of 21-year Balvenie Portwood for my birthday |

Finally cracked it last night while watching the debate. It was fucking awesome. Like drinking a campfire.

16. In Scotland, they make whisky. Whiskey is Irish or American. |

And the Balvenie 30 year is wonderful! So is the Balvenie Double Wood. Yummy!

20. The great thing about Scottish whiskey |
|
is that there are so many different kinds. And its so hard to tell which is better, that you really have to try them all. Many times.
