Quoted from SuperPinball:

Scotch and pinball go very well together.

Too many unopened bottles for my taste.

Quoted from SuperPinball:

Too bad you weren't closer and offer a remedy for that.

I do recommend having a drink or two of each (not all on the same day ) and then coming back to them after they have had some time with more air in the bottle. My opinion is some improve quite a bit in taste a week or two after the first time pouring some.

In Virginia that is about $100 on sale, very good spicy and citrusy scotch.

Quoted from Rascal_H:

I need to pick up a good entry level Scotch or bourbon. I was always a big Beam and Coke guy.. until one day I ran out of Coke and came to the realization that Beam on the rocks suits me just fine. Now I need to try something more sophisticated.[quoted image]

No ice if you are going for a nice scotch. If you like ice then save your money and get the cheap stuff like Johnny Walker Red.

For a good affordable single malt scotch that would be easy to drink for a beginner I would go with something like Balvenie Doublewood 12, Macallan 12, or Glenlivet 15.

Quoted from Rascal_H:

Hah, yeah. Don’t think this will be my favorite. Getting a medicinal vibe from it which isn’t the greatest. No worries. I’ll build up my bar and learn as I go.

I recommend getting one that is not smokey/peaty since you are just beginning. Most scotch drinkers I know prefer the highland fruity, honey, oak nose/taste.
Try one that specifically is from a sherry cask. Some of the brands I recommend are Glenmorangie, Macallan, Balvenie, and Glenlivet.

Quoted from QuickSilverShelby:

Last Friday my liquor store had a sale. 25% off everything in the store. I did some serious damage to the Scotch section.

Awesome. It appears you got many good ones to enjoy for a while. We had a 20% Black Friday ABC sale in Virginia. I think I got 15 bottles myself. Virginia is also having 20% cyber Monday for online ordering with pickup in store.
