At this point, it could be a week old with Dick Cheney's hunting socks in it and I'd probably say it ain't bad.

There's a strong divide between people who prefer blended scotch and people who prefer single malt. Single malt scotch has a generally stronger and more variable flavor and blended scotch has a smoother, more predictable flavor.

We used to have a Scot who'd post occasionally. but he inadvertently discovered sanity and MovedOn. I though he was brilliant because his tastes in scotch, beer, and ecology matched my own. We differed politically but WGAS about trivialities?

Anyway, I like Chivas Regal okay and would not turn it down. But I'd prefer Oban, Laphroaig or Macallans. I'm one of those single malt guys.

Where's that artichoke juice?
