Thats the stuff (nearly - Laphroaig actually). Try the Quarter cask if you can get it. Well worth it.

They had Chivas at 650 baht a bottle one night at a place in Baeng Saeng (sp?), earlier this year, called the Galaxy or something

Tasted all right that night

CR is a waste of money. Relatively ok drinking whiskey, if mixed, but in no way a good sipping whiskey.

Chivas is pretty good, certainly better than black. However if one can afford JW Blue - give that a go. Quite the experience for the whiskey aficionado.

Both of those are used in the basic Johnnie Walker blend if I am not mistaken.

Agreed.
1. good quality single malt.
2. another
3.decent blend + water
4. blend + water or ice or both
5. blend - cheaper + water +/or ice +/or mix
6. cheap blend + what ever
7. cheapest blend + cheapest blend.

Not sure I would taint anything with JW Blue - 225quid a bottle - neat/perhaps with 1 ice cube.

The old highland way is a glass of fine whiskey and a glass of water on the side for occasional sips. No ice and definately no mixing.

I'm not a fan of scotch, I don't like my drinks to taste like burnt wood or peat, Irish whiskey is far better.

Working im Scotland many years ago and my Scots friends wife worked at a brewery. She told me that the cheap mixed blends were the best to drink as they were blended from the remnants of the casks of the more expensive whiskeys.
Always preferred a good tallisker myself BUT????
