Default Scotch is disgusting.

I don't see how people can drink it. I had some Glenlivet 12 yr. last night, on the rocks, $13 a glass and it was pretty nasty, yet I somehow managed to finish it.

Do people actually like the taste? Or they just feel like a badass for drinking it?

Putting single malt on the rocks is not an expert play.

This is perfect for my first post. . .

How long have you been drinking non-beer spirits? Can you drink other whiskies/bourbons? That initial bitterness just gets more and more delicious as the years go by.

As a kid, I puked drinking my dad's Crown Royal. 15 years later, Crown is like fruit juice, a little too sweet for my tastes. But that's whisky, not Scotch.

Why do so many people associate scotch w/upper white class? I'm asian and I love this stuff. . . I guess I just love booze, but give it another shot w/something milder like Glenfiddich or some maybe some softer Irish whiskies.

JW Black/Gold is a standard I keep in my bar for people who want scotch but don't know much about it.

I am not sure what is funnier, that he may have been serious, or that he may have been sarcastic...
