[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 596760, member: 1211"] I don't know if this is the case any longer (treated myself to the final season of Mad Men with a bottle, so it has been a while), but [I]Laphroaig[/I] [I]Quarter Cask[/I] used to be a really nice Scotch value. Peaty, but also very briny, almost too briny sometimes. If you're a salt fiend, it might be for you. Balvenie Double Wood used to be another solid Scotch value, but I did watch the prices creep up, which is why I tried the Laphroaig Quarter Cask[I].[/I] I think it was maybe around $55 at that time. I'm frugal in life everywhere, so I'm not putting on a front with this, but with the prices as they are, I find it more fun to seek out the hidden gems and value whiskeys that have somehow managed to not bust bank (yet). Evan Williams continues to be a steal, and Jim Beam products pretty much all give me a headache, even after only a finger or two. Cannot drink Beam distillery.[I][/I] [/QUOTE]
