    Never have been a big fan of Scotch. I can sip it over some cubes however just not near as good as a good bourbon IMO. I bought my BIL a bottle of Laphroaig for his birthday. Crap was like $50 and tasted like campho phenique.

    Thank God! Was I the only one who thought the same thing? Crap! It tasted like turpentine--with a distinct essence of Sterno on the back of the palate. Yuckety yuck!

    (Do they get that 'flavor' by straining the mash through a Glasgow prostitute's bloomers?)

    Yeah Scotch is a very "aquired" taste imo. I don't know many people that drink it but those do swear by it. I'm not one of those guys.

    That is some funny stuff right there. That is a stright up chic drink around these parts. I can't stand the smell of red bull, taste doesn't do much for me either. Another big seller is the jeager bombs. I'm nahh bruh, just give me the jaeger you can keep the red bull.

    Jager is straight up fucking nasty. If I drink I prefer either the Crown XR, or Patron... only problem is neither of them like me very much after a few shots.

    I love me some jager. It is however the corner stone of "too much of a good thing isn't always good". There is a night in my teens that will haunt me forever.

    Scotch tastes like fingernail polish remover.

    Those that drink it love it.

    Good scotch is damn good whiskey. But it's for men, boys.
