"I have never been able to drink appreciate whisky but for those than can I appreciate youas I have friends that can"
Quite sure I’ve become immune to them over the years 
To validate… not the cheaper stuff … that hurts! |

"What’s your “go to” choice?
For a number of years, mine has been the Talisker Scotch Whisky.
The Tidal Churn, with ‘maritime smoke’"
Glenfiddich all time favorite whisky,overall though my go to for a nightcap would be dark rum and splash of Coke |

Mmmm whisky
I have stopped buying US whiskey’s and bourbons, though I do like them
I am still very partial to Irish whiskeys : Slane and Sexton are both worth a visit
Now Scotch whisky !
Crumbs!
Ardbeg, for that really dense peat and smoke
Pretty much anything from Islay
Lagavullin. If I have some extra money lying around
I love MacAllan but refuse to pay the recent inflated prices for it.
Cragganmore is a close enough substitute
Singleton is lovely
And whereas I find Bells a difficult choice I do have a rather guilty love of Teachers blenddd whisky. Mind, it is very hard to find these days

It really depends on my mood and time. Nothing beats on a cold day a nice glass of scotch by the fire (if you have one or a decent pub with one). saying that last xmas the other half got me some Crown Royal Dark which was nice. |

Dark rum and a good choice after a few pints of guinness and pre whisky  |

"I like a whiskey now and then, but I'm not into it enough to be a connoisseur. I generally buy Monkey Shoulder or Makers Mark if I want a bourbon. "
Monkey Shoulder - the one that’s always picked out on the bar shelf at midnight |

It's got an excellent bottle, I'm sure there are probably much nicer whiskeys out there but I don't know enough to choose them so I go for the nicest bottle |

I love most single malts, especially Laphroaig. I also like quality blended whisky as well such as Johnnie Walker and Chivas Regal.
The next bottle I'll open is a J&B.
I also have an unopened bottle of Blair Athol 8 year old from the 1970's. |

J&B, don’t see it very often unfortunately but definitely on my ‘gotta have a large one’ list.
Currently enjoying Haig Clubman. Not a true Whiskey as such, but definitely got my taste buds going, especially as It’s on special at Sainsbury’s at £18 👍👍🥃🥃🥃 |

"I like Raasay, lovely taste and within my budget. Had a chance to taste a 36y whiskey (don't remember name) and it was amazing but 650 per bottle would bankrupt me in a week.
"
Another one to add to the list (Raasay) nice one

I had to order the J&B from the whisky exchange, just fancied a bottle as I haven't had it for a few years...the large supermarkets don't sell it anymore...not sure if you can get it in any smaller shops etc. |
