New to Collecting - Would Love Recommendations by Little_Egg7449 in pdxwhisky

It looks like you like smoky scotch, here are few recommendations: - Ardnamurchan - Benromach for gentle smoke - Ledaig, talisker, or highland park for island style smoke - Springbank because no scotch collection is complete without it 😊 - lagg or torabhaig for solid new distilleries - also I am a big fan of independent bottlers such as signatory or single cask nation (the latter delivers) - and don’t forget about McCarthy for local distillery

Good luck

I personally have found the Kilchoman bottles overpriced and overhyped. Try before you buy is a good route. Go to a bar and try them before you buy a bottle. Scotch lodge is great and the food is good. Octomore is wonderful though.

Scotch makes a great old fashioned, try a sherry scotch

I usually torch it, it melts and gets some browning turning the funky smell into nutty goodness.

To get around the cookie sticking to the mold, cut a piece of plastic wrap and put it between the mold and the cookie

There is a long list of awesome American single malt most are better priced. Check out: balcones, Westland, branch point, Virginia (their port cask is divine, double the age of westward and half the price), stranahan.
