Default If you are a Scotchdrinker

Enjoy.
If you are a Scotch drinker (or even if you're not) this is a very interesting story and amazing presentation........................



It was shot on location in Scotland in one continuous take - apparently they had to attempt it 40 times to get it right - kind of neat.
Enjoy - perhaps with a glass of Johnnie's best....

Neat vid. I like my Whisky, not a huge fan of Johnnie Walker, but I have enjoyed a few glasses of Black Label.

I prefer ,Macallan or Oban on special occasions, and Glenlivet on a more regular basises.

Great vid. I had some blue in New Orleans recently. Fine. I'm in a Scotch club and have developed a great appreciation for scotch. Didn't care for it in the beginning. I've been enjoying a Balvenie Double Wood. It's almost gone. Glen Garioch is another fav of mine. Cheap too if you can find it. Highland Park is another value. I prefer it to Macallan.

Excellent. Thanks for posting.

I'm going to show it to my daughter, who is taking marketing in her next semester.

Thanks for recommending Highland Park, I'm a pretty big fan of Macallan, so a whisky which compares favorably is worth a try.

O.K. so I found at one of our liquer stores a bottle of Highland Park. I never even noticed it on the shelf next to the Macallan, and just above the Glenlivet.


Will give-er a go a bit later tonight!

Thanks. An interesting video. I am a Tamdhu drinker, which is a little known 10 year single malt that I find to be a good value. My father-in-law is a faithful Johnny Walker drinker, so I sent him the link. I'd never heard of the JW "Blue", so maybe I'll get him a bottle for Christmas.

Cheers.
