When it comes to spirits, I'm a Bourbon man, through and through. I love everything made by Buffalo Trace and my idea of a summer drink is a nice Old-Fashioned with a splash of club soda. I admit, I enjoy a good Rye too, and around St. Paddy's Day, I'll partake in some Jameson or Redbreast. But I'm a Bourbon man.
I've tried to like Scotch a few times, but never got into it. A buddy of men just brought a bottle of Johnnie Walker Gold home from the Carribean and I LOVED it. Granted, it's a premium Scotch, but I really honed in on the peaty, smoky flavors of it. IT WAS DELICIOUS! What single malts (and what region) should I look towards to showcase that smoky/peaty flavor?
