If your talking about the original View attachment 1282 The Dalmore Cigar Malt, exquisite:eusa_clap; not so much the 'Cigar Malt -"reserve" :eusa_doh:. That pales in comparison. Still have 4 bottles left and a dram in the "fifth" (pun intended). Pitty they discontinued it.
Howyafeelin'?
Drunk.
Whiskey and coke? Please tell me that's just bourbon your drinking and not fine single malt, otherwise I may just weep.

Hi Sloan
You might want to weep just a little for Venezuela. A college friend (whom I haven't heard from since) says that South Americans drink Scotch and Coke. Personally I'd gag, I swear. I don't have any Coke or I'd try it in the Famous Grouse just to see what it would be like. Don't worry, Coke ain't touching the Taliskers or the Liaphrog (spelling).

Heck no, that's what the hard liquor is for lol
On a related note, I'm drinking whiskey and coke tonight.
If I recall, a few years ago Bells tried to market a ready-mixed whisky and coke concoction, but it died a swift death. I think the more ersatz blended ones try to market themselves this way to appeal to a younger palate, but it's daft. Single malt whiskies are the reward you get for realising that sickly sweet shooters and other such nastiness are just wrong and that there's more to alcohol than just intoxication . Oh, and I cannot think of a more obnoxious mixture than Leapfrog and any soft drink. A drop of water, that's all you need.
Well at least hipsters ain't interested in it.
Makes sense to me. There are also so many different flavors from the different producing regions that you can certainly find a single malt for any taste---straight. I don't even add water unless I can get the water that it was made with.
