Blended Scotches can be very smooth and tasty, but they just don't have the complexity of a single malt. The taste is a bit lacking, as you pretty much get the same flavor every time you take a sip, whereas with Single Malts you can discover new hints of flavors with each sip.

I really want to get my hands on a bottle of this. It's supposed to be one of the highest rated scotches in the world. |

Got any recommendation for a good, but cheap resort to my splurging on single malts? |

| I like the ones that use a lot of corn mash, they are sweeter and mix better with a rich cigar. Makers Mark or Bulliet are my all around favorites when smoking. Also, try having some dark chocolate around to take a bite of when the smoke seems to begin overpowering the bourbons taste. |

Will try the chocolate thingy.
What do you think of Wild Turkey and have you ever tasted Jack Daniels No. 1? Friend did. Said it tasted nothing like the No 7 crap. |

| Wild Turkey has become a lot more popular lately but its really harsh and I do not like it. I think Jack Daniels 7 is pretty harsh as well. The single barrel is much smoother, but I personally like gentleman's Jack more that either. It's just a double filtered #7. And I think its a couple bucks cheaper. |

The only real scotch I've had is Johnny Walker Black, and I liked it quite a bit.
Though I have to admit I'm a bourbon guy at heart. I'm a sucker for sugar. Maker's or Jack are always a good choice. I enjoy Wild Turkey American Honey, too. Unlike nice scotch, you can throw any of those on ice or with a mixer and not be an . |
