Couldn't agree more drink you save for yourself. Guests get the Famous Grouse, which is actually very nice for a blend neat. Yeah lucky that I have a boutique wine shop near by and they stock both ever since I started requesting it. lol

There is actually 6 classic malts one that bests represents each region of Scotland, if you've tried them all? I keep this same rack at home (souvenir from hotel) and great for entertaining.

What's the rightmost one - don't recognize it? Of course, claiming that these best represent each region is highly subjective.

If you're in to malts, I highly recommend seeking out a bottle of Springbank from Campbletown on the Mull of Kintyre. The 10 year old is superb. The 15 year old is the closest thing I've seen to proof that God exists.

My favorite beer is the porter by Anchor brewery in San Francisco.  Man I just love that stuff it's perfect.  I dig porters in general, but the anchor stuff is just fantastic.  Beer should be black!  http://www.anchorbrewing.com/beers/anchorporter.htm

My favorite rum right now is from Venezuela, http://rumdood.com/2008/06/04/rum-review-ron-pampero-aniversario/  but I go back and forth between that and the Captain.  Mix with some Coke and a couple of wedges of lime (or bottled lime juice if you're lime deficient) and you've got a great drink.  Yummy!!

My Favorite is O.P. Whiskey.  After that I like Gentleman Jack on the rocks, Crown on the rocks, Ice cold Vodka with fresh ground Pepper.  Beer wise I like Shiner Bock, Heinekin draft, and corona.  WHen I am at work overseas, I like anything I can get thru the market that is less than 100 dollars a bottle.

Right most one is Glenkinchie a very nice and typically soft lowland malt.

Of course it's very subjective to claim they best represent each region but all six are very good and have been selected as the classic malt for many years now which is why they are also some of the most common malts as they are all very good with strong regional tastes.

I seen some mentions of captain morgan. Ive never tried it myself, what are some good drinks to make out of it? Also, junky that liquid cocaine sounds like something to try.

My wife owns a bar here in town, so when she is working as bartender a good chunk of the time I get five finger discounts on drinks. :)

Another drink I tried at the request of a friend is called "pissed off japanese minnow farmer." It wasnt too bad, but im told the quality of that particular drink is highly dependant on the bartenders skill.

Still really tough for me to give up on long island iced teas though. :)

Wells Bombardier Premium Bitter for light refreshment; Captain Morgan rum and coke for light spiritual refreshment;  a good Islay single malt with Islay water to match for the ultimate sundowner.

Mix it about 50/50 with coke in a tall glass full of ice.  Squeeze in two or three wedges of lime and throw the limes on in there too.  Strong and delicious drink that you can drink all night.
