O4L Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I'm planning on buying my first bottle of Scotch this week. Any suggestions on what to start with while on a tight budget? I hear that Monkey Shoulder is a good start, though it sounds a bit sweet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still $46.99 a bottle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKM Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Glen Grant The Major's Reserve has been discontinued at BevMo here in San Diego. Has anybody seen it in the wild? I've had Monkey Shoulder recommended as a similar tipple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like lighter whiskeys choose a highland whiskey, if you like it in the middle try a lowland. If you want everything, lots of smoke and peat, then an island whiskey. It's hard to go wrong with Johny Walker Black or double black as a first whiskey. Glenfiddich is a nice highland. Glenmorangie is nice as well.

jmohme Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 My first bottle of Scotch was Highland Park 12. I found it to be a good starting point and still keep a bottle on hand. I prefer more smokiness though so Lagavulin 16 is my go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it was the day, maybe it needed air. I don't know. But by the time I finished the bottle, I loved it.

I have thought long and hard about this eventuality. I also would have a very hard, long and memorable bender. I truly believe that it would be followed by some very careless gun cleaning................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried 3 versions of Glenmorangie and found all of them lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
