Alas, as pretty as that bottle is, the whisky tastes even better, amigo.

Affirmative, friend.

My two favorite malts, Laphroaig and Springbank, hail from those parts.

We spent three nights at the Argyll Hotel in Bellochantuy in June. A fine view of Islay and Campbeltown is just a short drive away.
When you're in a gin mood try The Botanist from Islay.
We love Scotland.

I'd like to try one that has the lightest hint of peat that I can find.
But then I think, " why drink Scotch if I'm avoiding the signature flavor?" .

Any ideas or should I just stick to my Bourbon?

I basically feel the same.

I can enjoy several, on the rocks, in a pinch or if good Bourbon is unavailable or certain social situations.

Macallan 12 and Barrel Strength, Glenmorangie 10, Glenlevit 12, they're all pretty easy to drink, and the least medicianal, iodine-y, peaty, etc.

I'd still take any decent $25 Bourbon over them every time, but I don't mind those particular ones when it's all there is or the like.

I think OGD114 is the second best offering from Beam, second only to Knob Creek Single Barrel.

And it's of their High Rye mash like Basil Hayden.

I bet that'll be excellent.

That's a great holiday, HW. I'll have to give The Botanist a whirl the very next time that I have gin.

BTW, I also love Scotland.

Glenlivet 18 year.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
