Not if you have gout like I do. Have to limit myself to maybe 1 a week or less. Yeah it sucks, lol.

Not to worry Ranger. I hardly ever drink beer (the young man’s drink). I find that Monkey Shoulder Scotch does just fine for me.

Yep, I've been drinking Costos blended scotch for a while now and find it quite satisfying.

I assume you meant “Costco”. Yup…Kirkland bottled spirits are very well regarded…they come from some top shelf distilleries. You know…Crown Royal…George Dickel…etc. Kirkland's Scotch whiskeys come from private-label bottler Alexander Murray & Co., a company that works with about 12 different Scottish distilleries. In every case, it’s not identical to the blends sold under the regular branding, but the quality is definitely up there.

PS: if you’ve never tried Monkey Shoulder, do yourself a favor.

Port Dundas 12 Year is currently my favorite popularly priced scotch. I was able to finagle a purchase of 3 cases at $23.00 per 750ml. bottle. (6 to a case) On the upper price tree, Glenlivet Enigma or (Enema as BH, misread)

I’m not quite sure I understand the term…”popularly priced scotch”. .

A scotch that does not require securing a mortgage.

Will have to search for it. Have never seen it around here.

And if you're in a thrifty mood, Teacher's Highland Cream is excellent.

I also have gout and for the last couple of days it's been out of control. Usually it strikes the great toe on my right foot. The joint, from years of distress, looks like a bunion. This episode has landed in two joints of my left hand thumb.It is very painful. I usually can trace an episode back to something I ate, not this time.
