I may to revoke the man card from someone who considers a fine single malt to be swill. You're drinking a Coors Light right now, aren't you?
That is downright insulting and deserves an ass kicking, that shit is not even beer. That said, I'm not quite old enough to have developed the palette for Scotch yet.
There was a time when I didn't like scotch. Get a girlfriend who drinks a lot of it and you will develop a taste
They still sell deuce deuces? This bar on Bourbon called the Cats Meow used to sell those over the counter.
I've never known a woman who drank single malt but some women drink blended scotch. Chivas Regal is a good affordable starter scotch if you want to acquire a taste for it. Then move up to smoother, pricier blends like 21 year old Royal Salute and Johnny Walker Blue.
That is what got me drinking the brown water. That girl loved her bourbon. Started off with the Turkey, never looked back.
