$30 from the local Jewel while shopping.

Santa pants. You're doing this on purpose.

I'm not much of a scotch guy, but it's nice to have a place where the owner will just walk over and pour a $200 bottle into your glass.

Macallan Harmony Collection Arabica. Very soft and mellow. None of that latex that always puts me off of scotch.

Latex? What kinda scotch swill have you been drinking?

I think he is equating peat smoke with band aid but that is one region.

Definitely the Band-Aid aroma

Definitely the Band-Aid aroma

Even within peated whiskies there is the balcony/camp fire smoke (lagavulin) and the medicinal smoke like ardbeg; honestly never heard anyone call that laytex or band aid, things I usually associate with Brett beers.

Anyway, try some non-peated Scotch
Scotch is wonderful and largely hasn’t been crushed by the bourbon price increases and gouging.

If you need recs feel free to ask
Grab a dram of Balvenie 21yr portwood. Or go all in on peat and have your tastebuds violated and try an Octomore.

I would say Highland Park 18 or Glenmorangie Nectar D’Or are top notch unpeated scotches.
