Since my wife managed to introduce me to Maker’s Mark (prior to that I was not much for Bourbon), I guess I should give Scotch a try. Any suggestions for a novice on what to try first?

I haven't tried it yet, but the hosts of The Scotchcast podcast have given Balvenie very high marks. http://www.thescotchcast.com/

You folks take yourselves much too seriously. While it now is scarcer than “Hen's Teeth”, good old Appalachian pumpernickel shine, if well made and aged in a charred oak barrel competes with all but the very finest scotch.

The ancestors brought the Technique and secret recipes here from the old country. Don't confuse pumpernickel shine for the rotgut corn likker made with sugar.

Alas, Cotton Sutton has passed from the scene. He knew the recipe for the rye/corn I am referring to. A two gallon charred keg and some of the pumpernickel or pore man's liquor rivals all but the very finest scotch. After the first drink most can't tell the difference.

Stop just looking at the Keg, let's celebrate Popcorn

Dalwhinnie is awesome. IT was the first Single Malt I tried when I started to drink Scotch. I too progressed from Bourbons to Scotch.

My preferred blend is either Grant’s for mixing and Famous Grouse for sipping.

Single Malts are Glenfiddich 15, Danwhinnie 15, and Glenlivit 16 Nadurra.
