[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 667900, member: 844"] I spent 6 weeks a few years ago backpacking around Scotland. Very cold, wet and hospitable place.Love the country and the whisky and tried a different whisky every night of my trip. I am a bit of a peat lover. Here are some suggestions that I enjoy but not sure where they are price wise. Ardbegh Uigedahl... peaty but not overly so like Laphroig. For a Speyside, if you can find BenRomach 10 year old it is very nice...just a little more of that smoke, peaty taste than the typical Speyside. Of course, all scotch drinkers like the Macallan's in any form...it is the safest, smoothest drink but doesn't venture too far into the smoke/peat flavors that turn off some. If you want to experiment with the peat flavor but don't want to invest a lot, look at Black Grouse or Black Bottle. Both are blended whiskies and thus are fairly cheap but I find them both to be enjoyable. Good luck, most of the fun is experimenting and finding out what you prefer. If you enjoy Scotch, there really isn't a bad one. If you don't like Scotch, then there really isn't ag ood one. It's definitely a love or hate thing [/QUOTE]
