Does this mean that we have to destroy all of the infants in this country, because if it does I'm shorting Enfamil stock.

Incredible story. Wow. I had/have it way easy by comparison.

Black label is all you need. It just doesn't hold up against the great Islays though.

I've tried the Lagavulin but neither of the others. Did you have the 16 year or some other blend?Yes sir. 16. All the islays (at least the ones I've had) are really strong, really peaty. You know you're drinking scotch. Good stuff. I know it's not scotch, but about a year ago for the first time I had Jameson 18. I've not looked back since then -- love the stuff. So far I've found I prefer the Highlands because I like the smooth taste and the different textures. I don't like anything that makes me shake my head after I take a sip if you know what I mean. I usually add a splash of water and then enjoy one or two over a few hours just to take the edge off a long day.X Scotch snobs might disagree. I think it really depends on the4 blend but I have found a splash of water really opens up certain Scotchs and makes the experience a little better. Water may just be the French tickler of Scotch. It's definitely a way to slow yourself down during an evening of drinking. I may, MAY add ice, but I just can't bring myself to add water to a 1st class single malt.Redman>Hiyou are a really smart guy and I know that you know ice=water.

Bowmore, my friend. I love the oakey taste. It's fantastic, and not too strong like I think Laphroig is. Dammit, now I've got a taste in my mouth for it and I don't have a bottle in my liquor cabinet!

I don't hear many people talking about it, but I absolutely love Bowmore.

I'm still holding out for more info. I want to see Steve, Jr.'s junior high school transcripts first.
